I suspect that most people will be expecting this result to go one way only and it is only a question of how many will be scored. I'm guessing we will only score two so they won't be humilliated.......... Don't see why we should be afraid of them just because we haven't won away and they are top. You can do it Bheys. COYG
9th Feb 2008......we won 1-0 there....that was the day we stuck it up runaway Ian Holloway....very satisfying result.
Well we have a full squad apart from Saxon Earley, which hasn’t been the case for quite a while. It’s also a bit of a free hit as nobody expects us to get anything. We showed resilience on Saturday on coming back to win from 0-1 down. Cundle has been on fire in the last couple of games and seems to have boundless energy and enthusiasm. He impressed me on Saturday not just with his buccaneering runs at the Stoke defence but also by the way he dropped deep to pick the ball up when we needed a spark to get going. It was the full fetch and carry, box to box midfield performance. We’ve got Cooper back, who’s a dominating influence for one so young. The one downside is that Hardy probably can’t start. Although he only got one chance that he put over the bar, as soon as he came on on Saturday you could see how he finds those little empty spaces in the penalty box. He must be a nightmare to mark, always slipping off to lurk unnoticed. If we play at the best I’ve seen this season, we might just get a pleasant surprise.
A dubious penalty shook Argyle after a good start but they’ve come back into towards the end of the half with chances for Bundu and Wright. Still all to play for.
We can't afford to not play are strongest eleven.....and putting on our first choice players is pointless when we're 4-0 down.....we haven't quite worked out how to play away from home....only 3 away points all season so far. At least I've got the Argyle nought right at the moment.
Well they’ve kept going to the end and made a few half chances. So have the 3,000 Argyle fans who kept “Green & White Barmy Army” going for the last 15 minutes and waited to clap the players off. We expected nothing and got nothing but £10m Harry Winks puts our 2 x £1m players in context. The next two are more important. I’ll be watching on Wednesday and there on Saturday. Semper Fidelis
Just watched the video.....certainly gave them the 4th goal........and Bundu should have done better with his chance.....we can't afford not to pick are best eleven.....not sure what Schumacher was thinking picking that starting eleven. Cundle played a blinder last week....how could we not start with him in the team....a little strange.......was Schumacher trying to keep some players fresh for more winnable games later this week.
Disappointed but not totally shocked. I keep reading this theory about we must pick our best 11. So who is that then? I would trust Schuey to be picking what he thinks is the team for the game in hand rather than all the amateur pundits. There is a squad for a reason and you cannot play the same 11 in this league for 46 games. Three goals in 6 minutes sort of blew the afternoon apart.
Nobody expected us to win this, including ourselves to be truthful. We haven’t won it. I don’t believe we disgraced ourselves. We tried to win it, not to smother it. That may be foolhardy but it’s brave. We need to win the ones we can win and that needs to include the next couple. I’m optimistic.
Just saw the TV highlights. Not a penalty. Not in 100 years. Where do they get these refs? Poor defending though on the other three.
Having watched the video I found it hard to make a decision from the camera distance away from the tackle....it did look rather innocuous I must admit.....but that is how the cooky crumble's for us at the moment.
