Preview: Peterborough v Plymouth Argyle
Peterborough away always feels like it’ll be tricky, but there are reasons to believe Argyle can take the three points.
Player Ratings – Bolton (A)
It was a hard fought point at Bolton, which extends Argyle’s lead over third place to seven points. The home side probably had the better of the game but had very little in the way of clear cut chances, mostly due to great defending from the greens. A big game awaits...
Player Ratings – Port Vale (H)
On a chilly Friday evening in December, it was a frosty reception which greeted the full time whistle as the green’s slumped to their first league defeat at home, here’s how the players are rated: Michael Cooper – 6: Perhaps would be disappointed at the second goal...
Preview: Burton v Plymouth Argyle
Since I started writing these previews, I’ve found this the hardest game to predict. Because this fixture could throw up any scoreline.
Preview: Lincoln v Plymouth Argyle
It’s time for Plymouth Argyle to find a response. Don’t get me wrong, the start to this season has been generally delightful; you’d have to be a bit of a masochist not to be pleased with 41 points after 17 games. But after the trauma of losing 5-1, and indeed having...
Player Ratings: Grimsby (A) – FA Cup

In the absence of Finn Azaz, there’s a lot of pressure on Whittaker but he’s looking more than capable of dealing with that.
Preview: Plymouth Argyle v Exeter
It’s an old cliché that the form book goes out of the window on derby day, but I think this would’ve been a close game regardless of geographical proximity
Player Ratings: Plymouth Argyle 2 -1 Shrewsbury Town
Bounced back from his relatively poor showing at Rovers to ensure a return to his cool, calm, collected manner in the middle alongside 9 lung-busting recoveries and 3 long-range pot shots from deep
Preview: Bristol Rovers v Plymouth Argyle
Are you going to Bristol this weekend? You lucky thing. Considering the carnage of supporters trying to buy tickets last Wednesday, I’d say there’s more than a few who would jump at the chance to spend £25 to stand on the uncovered terrace, or even more to sit in a...
Player Ratings: MK Dons (A)
It would be safe to say I’m thoroughly running out of superlatives to describe this side; every-single-man has stepped up, as a side we look un-stoppable right now. My last game on the Argyle Life ratings saw us crumble to a 5-1 defeat at the hands of Charlton...
