    Lets get winter behind us and look to the longer daylight hours....and Argyle getting a grip on the last 10 games of the season.

    It is looking as if to avoid relegation a higher than usual point tally might be needed.....so come on the greens lets start scoring again.

    I've heard the distant sounds of the first lawnmower of 2024.

    Leicester have been warned that they might infringe the Financial rules for this season.....and might have to sell players to avoid a point deduction.

    Simon Ireland 52yrs old from Barnstaple has join Argyle as first team coach until the end of season.

    He has coached at Huddersfield, Sheff W, Brighton, Nottingham F & QPR.

    His playing career was mediocre to be honest.

    Only employed until the end of season ?

    Interesting to see that on-loan Tyreik Wright scored two goals at the weekend for Bradford away at Accrington Stanley....he scored in the12th & 23rd minutes.....final score was 3-0 for Bradford.

    You need to read my post on the prediction thread Joe.

    I have also had the mower out although a herd of sheep might have made it easier. The grass was lets say very thick and longish but the ground was soaking. I am not allowed to put the mower away with even a blade of grass on it let alone mud so it took me as long to clean it off for storage as it did to do the cutting.

    Glad to hear Tyreik is getting on the pitch and scoring as a bonus. He needed to be loaned as it would be doubtful he would get on the pitch with Argyle yet.

    I popped into the internet to check the Birmingham v Middlesbrough score. Birmingham lost, good for Argyle, several of us have one point but Musty has three.

    Thing is though that Azaz was an unused substitute. That’s three games in a row at least.

    My grass is more like a paddy field at the moment....not many dry days since the beginning of February.....it only needs to rain for half an hour and the ground is totally saturated very quickly.....out in the car today and I can't remember the last time the roads where so flooded....the drains cannot cope with it.....I think it will need many days of dry weather before I will be able to even think about the lawnmower coming out.

    Saxon Earley has had a repeat of an ankle injury....and has had surgery on it again....he will be out until pre-season training.

    Also David Tivey has joined the club as Physical Performance Coach until the end of the season.....he is known to both Dewsnip and Foster through them all being involved with the FA.

    Our friend Sepp Blatter has said that...."I saw the angels coming for me....but it is not my time to go"......he wouldn't recognise an angel if one knocked him over.

    This is all to do with a new book of his that is coming out soon.....this is being said outside FIFA's glass palace that he built in Geneva whilst head of that organization......a HQ that he has been banned from for various misdemeanours .

    It is hard to believe that Ryan Hardie has now played 200 games for Argyle.

    Or that it was Ryan Lowe that recruited him. Was Ryan Lowe really at Argyle more than 209 games ago?

    Sad to hear that Torquay United have officially gone into administration...have passed a Thursday evening deadline for a bid for the club.

    The Conference National League South team had 10pts deducted in March....but do not face anymore deductions.

    PS.....just had a look at that league....and Yeovil are comfortably top with games in hand......but Torquay (-10pts)...Taunton and Truro are all struggling.

    Southampton and Leicester both letting us and themselves down: respectively drawing their games against Blackburn and Birmingham at half time. Not good enough is it? West Brom are at least holding their end up - beating Stoke 1-0.

    Guess who scored for Birmingham? A clue - initials are JS.

    Let us hope that any investors that Simon brings on board this time are not so flaky as the last lot of Americans...who obviously had no interest in Argyle....just profit.
