Surely Freathy will be happy tonight?

At least his predictions will be a tad more accurate now we've gone up

I hope not!

We're through to the third round of the FA Cup!!

Lol that's the spirit

fantastic we got promoted finally back in the championship after 13 years away

our shooting was woeful today it has to be said but we got the 3 points we wanted and thats all that matters. I had a good laugh at the stewards not even attempting to stop anyt fans going on the pitch except fat guys and disabled people lol i choose not to go on the pitch as i was pissed off with a fan who decided to be a cvnt near my seat and climb all over it and broke it drunk as feck and had his kid with him. wasnt going to let that spoil the day however im going to move next season elsewhere as the devonport end is getting out of control and the stewards arent bothered. never the less happy day as we got promoted and we got one more game to go and for the title.

i just hope we dont take the not bothered attitude we took into the Pizza cup next sunday and we get that final win and bring that trophy home for the first time since 2004.

Always going to be a tense afternoon and so it proved. King Niall to the fore again with a great run and shot almost on half time which apparently was deflected-Argyle dominated possession throughout the game but wasted a stack of chances and half chances but Burton looked quite dangerous in the air and it was heart in the mouth time when one of them put a header just wide in injury time. Much merited win though and it was needed with Wednesday keeping up the astonishing and unrelenting pace at the top of the league. Inevitable pitch invasion and flares afterwards-where the feck did the club get that seemingly pre recorded Orwellian git saying that pitch invasion was a criminal act? Stayed behind for the lap of honour after and it was good to be able to show appreciation to a group of players who have always shown resolution, bouncebackability and character in spite of the odd lapse here and there and will no doubt show the same qualities at Port vale, win, lose or draw. The championship title would be a nice bonus but job done in essence and in most seasons top of the table would have been a given.

Certainly was a bit more nervy than it should have been but job done and back in the Championship. Quality move for the goal and could have been 4 or 5 in the end.

What a brilliant season it's been, some great football played and 30 wins out of 45. That's some win percentage. Winning the league next week would top it off very nicely.

Great day in the Muff. Had a very rare for me beer in the Fort pre match HP absolutely rocking, didn't really get the nerves just thought it was our day. Mad how we can so outplay a team, create something many chances and only win one nil? Fecked if I know. Hurt n had done thier homework and managed to mark Mumba out for f the game for long periods, Scarr, Wilson and Gillespie solid at the back, Edwards getting about and geat performance from Callum Wright in particular, Ennis just got the ball and didn't look around he just went for it and bang we had our lead. Burton did play beter second half but the better team won and we are and were much better than them.
Great scenes at the end of the match, was on the centre circle and I was horrified to see Matete, Scarr and Burton sat on peoples shoulders! The people they were sat on were stood up FFS! Pyro madness even a couple of wheelchairs. Take note it's our game EFL this is what we do
Job done in the CCC and rightly so, few wobbles with Whitiker, Azaz, Cooper, Ennis and Randall getting recalled and injured but unlike last season we dealt with it and a surprisingly decent January window (when has that ever happened tbf?) Anyway job done but back to work on Monday and get focussed on winning the champions badge at Port Vale which if achieved would be our greatest ever achievement just because of the strength of the league this season, never seen anything like it.

How did we get on?

Usual shite, plenty of huff and puff, bit of hoofball, lost count of the amount of missed chances, ref was a wanker, Burton just cam and parked their team bus in the goalmouth, Ipswich won six nol, Wednesday won three nil.













Oh and we got promoted.

Literally hundreds of stewards lined the pitch and stood back and watched everyone stream on the pitch. After ten minutes they linked hands around the players and fans, who were all celebrating together, and let everyone clear the pich and ten minutes later the team came out again and did the lap of honour, went really well.

Is this Zippy?

I was going to stay out of this as it's just another sign of the post COVID self centered, selfish, it means other people not me, disrespectful, entitled shite that certain areas of society use to justify their selfish, arrogant and blatant disregard for any form of regulated authoritative direction designed to make things safe, enjoyable and inclusive for all. Not all people have the physical or mental abilities and comprehension to find this behaviour enjoyable in any sense.

But come on, stating that the manager's request, a man for who we should respect and honour, has made this plea just because the club has dictated that he should. That he and the players secretly wish that thousands of pre-pubescent or Peed up middle aged shaved head Stoney clad supporters storm the pitch at the end of the game so that they have to sprint for the changing rooms, as let's face due to recent events you can't be sure. Actually stating this because this will in some way in their head justify thire illegal and wilfully disrespectful behaviour is absolutely mind blowing in any society in this day and age.

Sorry to rant on on a day like today but what ever your actions are today please don't try and believe any consequences are anybodies fault other than your own for any repercussions, please think a little for those around you and I am sure Schuey has made this plea on behalf of himself and the players for far more considered reasons than a loyalty to his paymasters!


The Throbber said,

"Everyone waves the flag for their rights these days without feeling any need to uphold their responsibilities.

Entering the field of play is unlawful.

A points deduction could stop us going up.

A fine just takes money away from team strengthening.

The club and the manager has asked us to obey the law.

What more incentive do you need to celebrate with class?"

I dunno mate but one thing is for sure Im not about to get lectured about supporting Argyle by two people that never get within 150 miles of Home Park. Feck off.

its total bollox about points deduction.  

if that where the case ipswich fans wouldnt have done it today. Steward wont stop fans going on to the pitch (unless your portly as a couple i saw did) they will only act if players and officials are in danger and then they will remove that individual(s) and then they will be prosecuted.

plus if it where that big a deal they would have done something to stop fans attempting it like a barrier they put up when the players are warming up.

As for throbbers comment is that the same manager who celebrating with fans as he was making his way down the pitch. Pretty sure hardie and the players where celebrating with fans too.

Great photo's of the players out on the town last night on facebook, you cant beat winning.

Great day for all involved with Argyle, never thought it would happen and it just goes to show how this side kept going.

Also congrats to Ipswich  Town, they have been awesome all season. You have to feel sorry for Wednesday though as they looked like they were walking it awhile back then they wobbled. For them it's the lottery of the POs and good luck to them.

Argyle can go to Port Vale and be Crown as Champions and that would be fitting end to a truly amazing season. Never known a L1 campaign like this one, so many twists and turns among the top three, with both Argyle and Ipswich now looking at getting 100 points.


Apparently, there are many going  up to Vale without tickets and someone said last night that Vale fans could make some cash by selling their tickets to Argyle fans.
