What a season 🥹 so delighted we could do the job today. 🤩 couldn’t make todays match, but it has been an absolute dream to have spent every other home matchday in the media centre with the loveliest group of people & in the stands with the Green Army. 💚

[Plymouth Argyle FC @Argyle]

To our players, staff and the Green Army - thank you.

We couldn't have done it without you 💚

@talkingsportzz There is no men’s tour. Other than the women’s, the rest are open. To appease your ‘why not play the other tours’ in actual fact she did, about a week ago, and won that too.

Noa Lynn wins WS Event after playing all women = outrage bc of gender identity

A week ago:
Noa Lynn wins open CT Event after playing all men = outrage bc of gender identity

For *most* commenters, this isn’t about women’s rights in sport, it’s plain and simple transphobia.

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@talkingsportzz From what I’ve seen, she’s not breaking any rules & doesn’t have a ‘sporting advantage’ due to her birth gender. I support women’s rights in sports, but what I categorically do NOT support is transphobia or hiding behind those rights to condone transphobia.

@BFSCShaun I agree, it’s not unusual. But in the context of my comments, people celebrating/taking it in, & leaving their opponent hanging, doesn’t usually follow the longest walk on ever & the longest on stage composure ever where their opponent has already been left hanging a few times

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

Genuinely admirable sportsmanship from Humphries. Humble in defeat despite being kept waiting to walk on, to play the game & left waiting to congratulate DvdB. He’s not had the recognition he deserves this past 6 months, but you’ve got to take your hat off to him here. 🫡

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@enza21 Thing is, he’s well liked and we know the way his game has changed of late, so no one was frustrated that he took the time to compose - players do that in their own little ways all the time - it was the length of time it took, it didn’t slow the game down, it literally stopped it

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

Stage Two is always elite, I refuse to be told otherwise 🎯 #UKOpen

[Ben Hudd @bhdarts]

Luke Humphries is a tremendous ambassador for the sport. Not many people would’ve handled the situation as well as that having dealt with those antics. Gracious in defeat in difficult circumstances.

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@ZippySaturn You too! 😊

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@SSJJournalism This is the worst part about it for me - Everyone calms and composes at crucial moments in their own way, but the way he does it always reeks of delay tactics or trying to throw the opponent off

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@ZippySaturn Gonna agree to disagree with you on this one - just because you can, it doesn’t mean you should 🤷🏻‍♀️

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@NIEX8_ You’re right - I can imagine a large amount of players wouldn’t have put up with that, and would have certainly had something to say after the fact. It’s one thing to compose yourself, but that was just too far. Humph has too much respect for people to say anything, I think!

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@ZippySaturn I have zero issue with people composing themselves, I also don’t care how fast people throw, I care that it becomes bad sportsmanship and potential mind games to throw your opponent off. Delaying tactics all evening, from longest walk on to rolling around on the floor after 🤦🏻‍♀️

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@martinjeremy1 10000%. Really poor. Shouldn’t have to stand and wait around for someone like that!

[Holly Jago @HollyJago]

@bpay12 Never know how comments about him will go down, strangely popular player - apart from tonight 😂
