Match Day Thread versus Doncaster

So here we are playing a team that is above us in the league. That's novel for most of this season anyway.

We are playing them at just the right time........not. We are hardly the form team in the league at the moment. We have a big game coming up if we can win a replay. They are scoring goals for fun and are on a reasonable form loop. Are our players going to be concentrating on this game with the prospect of a plum TV tie against the mighty Liverpool around the corner. It was always going to be hard enough without the added distraction.

To be fair we haven't played that well recently although also to be fair we have played better than most of the teams we have dropped results against. We have created chances, some of them more difficult to miss than score from, yet we have not been taking them. So, we can create the chances and all we have to do is poke the final toe out and put it across the line. Simple really, what can possibly go wrong...........

 

I might even set my alarm for this game don't want to miss anything.
Exciting games ahead for an exciting season.

 

I assume it's Argyle Player that you'll be listening on ?....doesn't work very well from what I've read.....let alone in 6ft of Rockies snow.

 

You are always saying PAFC do the reverse of what you can reasonably expect so I'm going for a 4-0 home win with McCormick scoring twice.

 

That's my boy notdistant. Bit reserved at 4 - 0 and no hattrick for Mac. It's hard I know to have complete faith though. Best not stray too far from reality.

 

Argyle Player works very well here well worth the $8 fee per month.

 

I'm beginning to wonder if we have done something to offend the football gods. I've just seen the weather forecast for tomorrow and it's yet another football Saturday that's going to be wet and windy at match time. It's beeen fairly good all week again but Satuday approaches and the wind and rain start up once more. What pee's me off more than anything is having to paddle my way through the Barn Park entrace to the park. Whilst it's way better than it used to be it still gets very soggy down there. I'd rather have BC's 6 foot of snow as long as it doesn't all fall at once. I'm only 5ft 10ins.

 

You'll need one of those straws to poke above the surface to breathe.....not just useable for buying a one pint round for us all with a straw each.

 

It was swamped down there for the Grimsby game, I think the pasty wagon may have been washed away...

I was freezing at half time. Saoked walking there and then 45mins in a cold breeze... lovely.

 

it would of all felt different if Argyle had won....lets hope it's better today.

 

Still no Osborne then: Songs'o continues in the back four. Is it 4:4:2 with Slew and Jervis up front maybe or 4:2:3:1 as normal?

 

Much griping on Twitter as Donaldson is preferred to Tanner. Perhaps a bit stronger defensively that way?

 

How is the weather ?

 

Been wet all morning. Constant light rain presently with quite a stiff breeze.

 

Wet rain if you know what I mean: not pouring but coming down thick.

 

4:1:4:1 apparently with Fox holding. Carey on right and unusually Jervis on left.

 

Carey scores after midfield mistake by Doncaster

 

Newport game abandoned.....rather wet....winning 1-0 at the time.

 

Newport v Morecombe abandoned with Newport 1-0 up. Shame.

 

2-0 Jake Jervis penalty, possibly a bit generous but a bit of evening up is not more than we deserve.
