A brief introduction Argyle head into this game in the lowest of spirits following a poor start to the season that has seen them dumped out of the League Cup as well as collecting only two points from a possible fifteen. Stalwarts of last season’s push towards...

Matt Macey – 4 The defeat against Peterborough was game to forget for Matt Macey. An early mistake leading to our oppositions opener seemed to derail the loanee stopper, culminating his worst performance in an Argyle shirt. Macey received a relatively simple...

Lessons Learned: Plymouth Argyle v Wycombe

We have much improved squad depth I think you could put forward the argument that this is the greatest level of squad depth that Argyle have had since we dropped to the foot of the football league. The ability to leave such talent out of the starting eleven against...

Preview: Plymouth Argyle v Wycombe

A brief introduction:  Argyle and Wycombe go into the game having each suffered a start to the season that could only be described as ignominious. Both sides on one point from three games, they will each go into Tuesday’s fixture with a state of mind that,...

Matt Macey – 8 Despite the loss, Macey had another stellar performance. The on-loan Arsenal stopper is still yet to concede from open play this season, three of the four goals conceded coming from the spot and the other from a direct free kick. He had little to...

Lessons Learned: Coventry v Plymouth Argyle

Argyle’s style is too direct to work this season. Many fans are baffled that Argyle continue to stutter their way to the start of the League One season, given the excellent way we performed with a fit team in the second half of last season with a similar...

A brief intro Plymouth Argyle head into this fixture after a fantastic giant killing win against Bristol City, knocking last season’s semi-finalists out of the League Cup, but a slightly disappointing start to the League One campaign following a draw against Southend...

A brief introduction. It was a grim feeling of familiarity as the first hint of the new season, the League Cup first round draw, saw the exact same outcome of last season when it was confirmed in the middle of June that Argyle would travel to Ashton Gate to face...

Starting XI: Matt Macey – 7 – Man of the Match: It was a shaky start for the Arsenal loanee, but he grew into the game as it progressed and, in the end, he may well have been the difference between a point and nothing for Argyle. With Southend squandering many chances...

Starting XI Matt Macey – 7 On paper conceding two goals is enough to ruin any goalkeepers performance, but it’s hard to pin either of the goals on Macey here. He saved Cooks initial penalty attempt, diving to his left and saving with his legs only for an...

Lessons Learned: Walsall v Plymouth Argyle

Some of the new players looked good Matt Macey, Argyle’s replacement goalkeeper, handled the ball well and made some smart stops including a penalty save (which he was unfortunate to concede from ultimately). Ashley Smith-Brown looked sharp and very technically...

Argyle without Taylor are impossible to replicate. The fantastic performances of Ryan Taylor are self-evidently impossible to fully replicate for Argyle as the big striker remains out injured. The Northampton and Rochdale games both taught us this lesson: but in...
