Damn right miserable weather up here in Kent. Combination of fog and drizzle. So if any of you are planning on making the journey I suggest you wrap up warm and bring a coat! Apologises for the scaffolding, I thought by now our Chairman would have ensured you was moved into a section of the covered GRS, the stand opposite the Medway Stand. However, there appears to have been no further development with that idea. Anyway safe journey and be sure to leave behind the three points. thanks brb
It has been absolute rubbish weather here today. I would suggest finding the away boozer (Livingstone Arms I believe?) and leaving it until the last minute to get to the ground.
I never ever ever ever forecast Argyle to lose. Ergo it is 3 points and an upward climb for us. Just the sort of team we end up turning over. Wobble wobble the Gills.......
Seriously? Have not checked the forecast except out of my window and when I had to go to work in it. Still not improved much tonight, so there will be some very brave souls in that away stand tomorrow. I will be in the Cricketers up until kick off, problem is they don't let away fans in there, otherwise you would be more than welcome by me without your colours.
Weather not too bad today brb (I'm only 20 miles away)......I had planned to come to this one months back,but the good old NHS changed my cataract op to Fri 8th so i'm grounded at home for a day or so.....I think there is a chance that we could do better than the last match at Priestfield when we brought our apprentices & a dead in the water Peter Reid along.
Certainly better weather than yesterday You have as much chance as any other team that has visited Priestfield this season and many of them have gone home with the three points. Both teams need them for their own desperate reasons.
Sorry you couldn't make it today Plymborn..at least you will be able to see better soon.. The next 4 games..3 are at home including Exeter. All is not lost i'd say..
still positive -never expected anything from today but tuesday v important.- Rather be an Argyle fan than a Torquay one as at least we know we are capable of picking up a few wins. we may survive due to TUFC and ASFC's inability to win anything.
That's my boy lyndhurst, keep taking the tablets and smiling. ALL games are crucial right now never mind the next 4 or the 4 after that. Most people wouldn't have given us a hope today it's true. The next few are slightly more realistic for some points. I still can't get positive though.
Not embarrassing scoreline in fairness but that may work against us as perhaps a wake up call to Brent would have helped. Not sure he gives a flying FCUK to be honest but still trying to give him the slightest benefit of the doubt. Lyndhurst you have it called right not in our hands now we just have to rely on the others ineptitude as we could not fight our way out of a wet paper bag. Gutless was the feedback I got from my lad the other week and that is worrying.
Even now we have a better return than this time last season. 2012/13.....P36.....W8.....D12.....L16.....37-48.....36Pts....... ? 2011/12.....P36.....W7.....D11.....L18.....38-56.....32Pts.......finishing with 46Pts. But there is a big BUT.....last year Hereford & Macclesfield were already pencilled in as relegation candidates. This year there is NO pencilled in relegation candidates TODAY..........BUT Argyle & Torquay are heading that way !!!
On their current form, losing to Gillingham away by an odd goal is no disgrace. Continually failing to win home games against much more modest opposition is. As stated, 3 points on Tuesday are essential: I'm not confident.
I think a nice home win on Tuesday... i am sure we will just scrape through... and survive all being well i may be able to get there!!
I was out at Jenny Cliff today and it was real brass monkey stuff. I hope it warms up a bit before Tuesday night cause I'm not looking forward to watching another load of carp and freezing the old nuts to go with it. The scoreline yesterday was, on face value, not that bad considering we are down there and Gillingham are top. However, we cannot afford not that bad whoever we are playing and all it ended up was another defeat and game gone by. If we were mid table I'd have been more praising but we aren't. I have no faith at the moment that we are going to escape this time. The other sides are picking up points and a bad day at the office for us is compounded when they all get results. The only chink of light is that we at least are picking up some points whereas Torquay and York don't seem to be able to buy a point currently. Says something though when you have to rely on other teams sinking rather than us rising through merit.
