Extra Time: Lucky League Leaders?
Argyle were, for once, involved in a game rich in entertainment when league leaders Wigan Athletic came to town at the weekend. And, in winning it, Argyle’s table-topping opponents pulled off a feat we have been so used to seeing from the Greens themselves over the...
Final Whistle: January Merry-Go-Round
It's well and truly been a mixed seven days for the Plymouth Argyle Football Club with the January Transfer Window now open and dealings in full flow. Following a comfortable 3-0 win over a very much lacklustre Bury side at the weekend, the Green Army were swiftly...
Extra Time: The Unchangeables
Back in January 2014, Australian cricket fans were cock-a-hoop as their side romped to a 5-0 Ashes victory. That series win was remarkable for a variety of reasons, but the one relevant to this piece is the fact that the Aussies used the same team in all five test...
Final Whistle: Positives Amongst Doom & Gloom
The manner in which Plymouth Argyle conceded their last minute equaliser against Rotherham was all too typical of the season the South West club have had so far this campaign. Despite the doom and gloom following Saturday's result there is still a lot to be positive...
Extra Time: One of Those Years
I’m not here exclusively to put a downer on proceedings – honest – but my overriding feeling after yesterday’s act of snatching a draw from the jaws of victory is that this season could be one we look back on in years to come with terror and anguish. A sort of “laugh...
Extra Time: Defining A Season
It was particularly galling to call Saturday’s early December encounter with Gillingham a relegation six-pointer, particularly as the season has yet to reach the halfway mark. But, with Argyle’s opponents just three points ahead of them in the league heading into the...
Final Whistle: Backs To The Wall
It was very much backs to the wall for Plymouth Argyle as they climbed off the foot of the League One table courtesy of a late Toumani Diagouraga winner at Home Park on Saturday. Once again the tactics of manager Derek Adams were a key talking point with many...
Extra Time: The Cup Conundrum
The vast majority of us will remember the scenes after the FA Cup second round replay win against Newport County last season. The 1-0 victory, sealed with a Graham Carey penalty deep into extra time, did of course land Argyle their unforgettable third round tie...
Final Whistle: 1-0 or Bust
Another game. Another host of chances wasted. Whilst Plymouth Argyle would hardly be fighting for promotion if they had a few players who could finish their chances, they certainly would not be languishing at the bottom of League One, something that was again evident...
Extra Time: Fine Margins
I appreciate this will come as good news to very few people other than myself, but with the UK Championship on the horizon, it’s not long before snooker is back on our TV screens again through the BBC. That means we get another week of John Virgo gloriously telling us...
Final Whistle: Same Old Problems
Following Saturday's 1-0 defeat at the hands of Portsmouth, Plymouth Argyle returned to the foot of the League One table as Bury's 0-0 draw with fellow strugglers Northampton saw them leapfrog Derek Adams' side. The battle for survival is continuing to be a tough one...
Extra Time: Positive Thinking
Why do Plymouth Argyle make themselves so difficult to write about? One moment, we’re experiencing the hilarious farce that was the 4-0 defeat by Oxford United, the next, we have the best performance of the season by far as Northampton Town were put to the sword in...
