OMG it's another 6 pointer already. My nerves won't stand it much more. For the sexists out there Oh no the Ref is a woman who is card happy. It's gonna be a disaster and even the kick off time means we will know early how bad it is. I hope this is sufficiently downbeat for everyone. COYG
Now that's rather like me continually putting Argyle for an away draw when what I really think is somewhat different. If you don't really, really believe it, Father Christmas won't come.
Port Vale...0...Tolaj...1. Winning is all that mattered......without Lorent Tolaj we would look totally non-league......cannot we find anyone else who could score goals. Tolaj needs wrapping up in cotton wool between matches....don't let him near the training ground.
Probably a deserved win although obviously there was a lot of pressure at the end. Returning to his old club, Tolaj was naturally the centre of attention. I’ll say one thing, he may be a striker in the rapier style rather than the broadsword but he’s not averse to the physical side of the game. He took a few naughty challenges but he gave as good as he got. Immediately after he scored, he got close to one of their CBs and whispered something in his ear. A minute later he took a heavy challenge and just laughed. It was finisher’s goal. Sorinola hit a fast, low cross in front of the right to where Tolaj was double marked but got a yard ahead of them and that was enough to tuck it in at the near post. My MOTM would be Boateng though. Playing in a more advanced role he did well in the defensive and offensive parts of the game. Benarous came on off the bench at 69 minutes and had to go off again 20 minutes later. When will it stop? Port Vale are on a bad run so you could say it’s a game we should win. On the other hand, it was hard fought because of it. Better from Argyle but I do wish we’d pay a bit more attention to the defensive side of the game. We nearly got caught short at the back just minutes after we scored. You might have thought that would be expected and a rigid back 5 for 10 minutes might have been advisable…..
And by the way…. 8,000 there of whom I believe 800 were Greens on a 500 mile round trip. Guess who made all the noise? Now THAT’S what I call support rather than armchair warriors.
