Is it me, or is the all green Plymouth kit hard to pick up in the sunshine, sometimes?

They should have kept their 1898 shirts; that would have been more visible; http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Plymouth_Argyle/Plymouth_Argyle.htm

I know hindsight and all that. But how did we let Szmodics go. Another 2 already today!

He was a completely different player back then

As for the shirts; the manufacturers insist on clubs wearing the away shirt on so many occasions to encourage fans to buy that as well  as the home shirt.

That's completely untrue, Ps this is our THIRD kit not our away kit

It ain’t the truth mate. You’ve just spent too much time reading the Daily Mail comments.

Great for night fixtures under the light of burning staves!

Well. Sat off and had a look for about 20 minutes , using that high block .
Then something happened. We started to press , Roberts went from CB to further forward on the left, first seemed to step into MF for a while but then seemed almost a winger at times , LMF . 

A couple of corners has caused us problems , but not too many scares . 
Twine was unlucky from the James through ball , couple of almosts , but we looked much better for the last 20 minutes .
Played some nice stuff at times, but a couple of occasions we just held the ball to long and we need to pass the ball quicker . Some of the switch passing has been great . 
One moan is Stroud pulling us up for some very soft "fouls" , but he has let the game flow quite well. 
Just need not to switch off at the start of the 2nd half now. Get some of those passes into TC , been close a couple of times . So far so OK.

red v green makes it virtually impossible for me (for one) to watch. I'm sorry that upsets you

Need to sub Conway. Don't mind trying anyone else up front. Twine? Cornick?

Something not right with Conway. Either confidence or unsettled at the club but not been at it for a while.

Just think he can't play up front on his own. 

[Curr Avon]

Taylor Gardner-Hickman is the quiet man.

[RollsRoyce]

That was a decent half, and we continued the same approach, more or less as we did on Friday. Pushing harder higher up the pitch. As their energy drained a bit, we started to find opportunities. We can win this. 

[Dolman Block B]

On top the last 15 minutes 

 

Twine is a handful. 
 

Tommy poor so far but that could change.

Decent last 15 minutes for us there, if we start the 2nd half like that then think we have a real chance of winning this game 

The longer the game is tight the more likely the home supporters will get restless and will increase the pressure on them

Problem is that we have a new plan A every game. 

We don't impose our game on opponents. We constantly change depending on the opposition and that just doesn't work.

Sorry I'm genuinely confused here - your original complaint was that we were doing the same thing wasn't it - "stumble across something that worked and kept on until it no longer worked"

But now you're complaining we have a new plan A every game.

Which is it?

You say impacting the majority but it's not any impact at all, we can tell the difference between the teams, someone with deuteranomaly colour blindness would really struggle if we were in red. 

If anything playing in this set up is allowing everyone to watch the game and that's coming from someone who hates our yellow kit.

Tommy can't beat players from a standing position it seems. Needs to bulk up or improve his technique.

It doesn’t upset me , I’m just saying as a general rule be it right or wrong it’s what happens in this country now 

anyway we should be easy to distinguish we’re the ones defending / misplacing passes and conceding goals in the last 10 mins of games , I hope that helps

A half of two halves! 

A half of thirds!!

First 30 - Plymouth 

Last 15 - City

Slow start, good finish, but some poor touches in good situations.  Plymouth’s physicality meaning City waiting for the challenge rather than concentrating on the touch, where they might earn a foul, or get away.

Glad we are 0-0 if I’m being honest, not that they’ve created much with their frenzied play.

What it really is, is "I wanted Frank Lampard so now I will literally complain about everything".

I do tread the papers mate , I just live in the real world , I never said I agreed with it , it’s just what happens in this era

How nice it is to watch a game without electronic advertising boards.

As technology isn't my strong point can anyone tell me how to get rid of the banner advertising the Blackburn game from the screen on Robins tv please. 

I’d rather they change the advert for tickets to the upcoming Bristol Ctiy box Blackburn match.

Loves to contradict himself to criticise Manning, which is odd as there’s many reasonable things to criticise LM about.

Think Conway is fine, and has received quite a bit of unfair criticism recently.

Biggest issue with Conway in recent times has simply been our inability to get the ball to him and to create chances for him.
