Retired midfield schemer, Coach for Plymstock United U15s, optimistically waiting for the Greens to climb back into the Championship

The argyle cycle of life:

1. Make a mess of something simple.
2. Say nothing and hope it passes.
3. Chaos
4. Says something which is the equivalent of nothing.
5. Signs someone to dilute fan fury.
6. Return to (1)

Correct decision, abhorrent execution. #pafc

@ZacThomson13 He’d be a great pick-up. We’ve developed two unknowns into internationals, and are likely to be a brilliant stepping stone for Tolaj. It’s be an excellent move for his career also.

Dale getting a new trim in Plymouth this afternoon. Getting ready? 🖊️ #pafc

Recently, only Rudoni (£5.9m) and McGuiness (+£11m) have transferred out of League 1 for more than £5m.

Equally, Stansfield transferred into the division for £17m so we should be asking more than £5m (or at least have very generous add-on’s included) from any deal.

It’s taken a lot to feel connected to the club this season, but the 8 minute rendition of ‘green and white barmy army’ felt unbelievable. #pafc

[Mark @markyball]

It’s now or never Tom. Got to throw another striker on and gamble. #pafc

[Mark @markyball]

I admire Clev’s bounce back, but why continue to use right footers on the left, and left footers on the right?

Amaechi will only ever be a ‘moments’ player on the right. Confident he’d be a different player on the left.

Same story with Harding over MacKenzie.

How we’ve gone in 1-0 up with our inability to clear our lines at times, is delightfully baffling. #pafc

[Mark @markyball]

Well that’s it, we’re cooked. Clev’s with an absolute masterclass how not to play against a Shuey team:

1. Low energy, limited pressing
2. Surrender midfield numerically

Can’t work out whether it was just arrogance, overconfidence or just naivety to set up like that.

@MaccaSouth He did. Mentioned Watts’ had a tight calf muscle and they were managing it carefully.

[Mark @markyball]

@PilgrimPetey Add to that setbacks to return dates and a failure to manage phased returns effectively which have led to new injuries, and you’ve got ask why the fitness and conditioning department hasn’t been overhauled already. #pafc

[Mark @markyball]

It says something when our injury list is longer than Bonnie Blue’s guest list.

Let’s be honest, it’s an absolute disgrace the club don’t know why the injury list is huge, and recurring.

Such a massive waste playing our best winger upfront… #pafc

Season could end today #pafc

[Plymouth Argyle FC @Argyle]

Today's team! 📋

🇪🇸 Pleguezuelo returns to the 11
💫 Finn starts, with Hayman on the bench
🔄 Hazard, Ross, Ibrahim out through injury

[Mark @markyball]

Is anyone actually in midfield with Boateng? The guy can cover a lot of ground, but this is a bit beyond even him.

#pafc

[Mark @markyball]

It’s as simple as this:

We’re losing too many duels all over the pitch. Let’s hope we’re fitter than they are and grind something out.
