Plymouth Argyle at home match thread

[Andy082005]

No more than we deserve. They are dreadful at the back 

[redsince1994]

What in the absolute **** was that defending 

Lovely pass and a calm finish from Sykes 

[HOZDA]

Get in! 2 goal lead again! Got to punish their highly suspect defence here

[MelksRed]

Wells needlessly booked for kicking the ball away....

[22A]

Three goals, three scorers. Please correct if wrong, but AFAIK, we have never had more than five players score in a game. (not even that 11-0 v Chichester).

what the hell are these lot doing defensively, Sykes was in for about 20 seconds before the pass was played I swear

It’s genuinely like they’ve never ever watched us before

[cityexile]

Plymouth playing ‘we will out score you’ football, which rarely works in this league. Fancy this one is not over yet mind.

Stupid Yellow for Wells, kicking the ball away after the whistle had gone, really dumb

Last time when we beat Plymouth we had 5 scorers too

[The Journalist]

Plymouth actually play some nice stuff but, my word, the state of their defence. Whenever we win the ball back, wherever it is on the pitch, they’re immediately a complete mess. Their shape is all over the show.

They look like a team used to blowing opposition sides away and not having to worry about transition.

I dunno they still look poor in defence. Fancy we will score again.

Correct!

Gonna beat this rabble 

[Redstart]

Shocking defending. Waiting on the "can we play you every week" chant now 

[Super]

Wake up Max ffs

[old_eastender]

Terrible from Max, so lucky it's not 3-2

[Ivorguy]

What on earth was Max thinking.  Half asleep

[And Its Smith]

Any keeper playing it out is gonna have a moment like that 

[Jerseybean]

It’s probably just me, but this game has a really odd feel about it, despite being 3-1 up I don’t think we’re playing that well, which seems a very odd thing to say!

At 2-0 it felt like the next goal was going to be very important and when they scored it, I began to fear the worse. Even now we’ve regained a two advantage. I don’t feel that we are in control of the game.

We are making lots of silly mistakes, but thankfully so  too are Plymouth and theirs  so far have been more costly.

All things considered. I’m pleased with us being 3-1 up, but would love to feel that we could go on and really dominate this game and impose ourselves rather than depending on Plymouth continuing to play poorly.

As I type this we escape a scare which should have seen them pull,one back!

Shows the difference between an established Championship side - which for us isn’t to be sniffed at - and a League One promotion team. Remember us in first season up. As you say they don’t look bad going forward though.

Some are better than others.

[Loderingo]

Need to be sharper at the back.  Can't get complacent as expect Plym will improve 2nd half

[22A]

How did Waine miss?If he was a city player, he'd have been slated on here.

[Garland-sweden]

What is Max doing! Wake up

[old_eastender]

Why are we inviting Plymouth onto us, dicking around at the back, idotic.

Feels like an old school 6-3 game.

Sometimes you are two up and feel it’s a cruise. This one has never felt like that, kind of game that could end up 5-5.

[fixit]

Anyone know the last time we scored 3 in the first half of a league game?
