Will there be more fans for this game then Exeter?

Argyle should get a decent sized crowd for this one. Three points would by an excellent present for the team and fans.

Yes this will be the fourth crowd of more than ten thousand this season, i'm sure the fans will be rewarded for their loyalty with the squad being strengthened.

Yeovil tickets

Yeovil has been given the standard allocation of 1,300 supporters, although the overall capacity can be increased up to 2,022 spectators for the whole end

No I also think we will just scrape into 5 figures although not by much

No blocks have gone red as of this time, The only block not to turn yellow is block 1, (have to get some one to seat by BBC1)

There are loads in Demport and around to Block 9 and presume 15 onwards not open yet (bar family zone).
Have to be a big PotD turn out to get to 10K

Despite being local(ish) Yeovil are not much of a draw, think it'll be five figures though, just.....10,408

Bought tickets for my daughter and grandson and couldn't get anywhere near me in block 11

I think we're going to deliver this Boxing Day, so a 2-0 win at least

Boxing day or no boxing day, if I can't easily access the ground as a turn up and POTD customer for a 4th division game against Yeovil then I give up...I really do.

I'd be very happy to TG, a very old pal who I haven't seen for ages.

Oxford, a better team than Argo, struggled at home againts Yeovil. Think we're looking at another home defeat.

MIDFIELDER Josh Simpson has a chance of being fit for Plymouth Argyle's Boxing Day clash against Yeovil Town at Home Park (3pm), manager Derek Adams has revealed.

Simpson suffered a hamstring injury in the away game against Dagenham and Redbridge at the end of November and was substituted at half-time.

The 28-year-old has missed the last two matches but was being assessed on Christmas Eve with a view to being involved in the squad against Yeovil.

Argyle have already had centre-back Peter Hartley and goalkeeper Luke McCormick return from injuries over the past couple of weeks.

That leaves midfield duo Hiram Boateng and Graham Carey, plus star striker Reuben Reid, still on the casualty list.

Adams has not put a timescale on when any of that injured trio will be available for selection again.

He said: "The one with the best opportunity (of playing against Yeovil) just now is Josh Simpson but I don't rule out anybody."

With the Harper's Park training ground waterlogged after the recent heavy rainfall, Argyle have been using the 3G pitches at the University of St Mark and St John, as well as Devonport High School for Boys.

The game against Yeovil marks the midway point of the season, with The Pilgrims currently on top on the table by goal difference from Northampton Town.

They have picked up 43 points from their first 22 fixtures, and Adams admitted the season had flown by so far.

He said: "It has been very busy and hectic at times but I have enjoyed the first 22 games. Hopefully I can enjoy the next 24.
