    Match Thread Plymouth (A)- Wednesday 14th Feb

    Just finished work after a long, long day and that line up hasn’t massively cheered me up. However on reflection, it’s not too bad, other than DaSilva that front four are all attacking players. And DaSilva isn’t a winger but is good on the ball so can contribute offensively. Plus, Wright and...

    Something urgent needs to happen

    That is so so blatant. It’s almost slow motion as well, so no excuses from the authorities. But we all know they won’t do anything.

    Ratings wise; Collins - 6 - called it a while ago, as decent as he’s been shot stopping wise his distribution is poor, and it was especially evident today. MVE - 6 - like most, grew into it. But silly to attempt to go for the ball in the build up for their goal and didn’t look as solid...

    Honestly felt like there were way more idiots there today than usual, so many absolutely ridiculous shouts. Some highlights; ‘JDS is shit he’s lost the ball again’ (it was MVE and this happened twice) ‘Start moving the ball around, you look shit’ (when we were literally moving the ball around...

    I know he isn’t liked on here, but this is a game for Simms. 50/50 if that’s for Wright or Palmer. Possibly the former as this seems a game we’ll break them down via playing football, so we need our better technical players on. Equally Wright will offer more width. Either way, Simms needs to...

    Let’s not lose the plot, once we get going we’ll be fine. Just need to get the play down and play football. Someone needs to step up and get us going.

    They have some pretty reputable players - more than I realised. Their 24 looks like a stacked Jamie O’Hara. Also, we’re winning this, when we play they are chasing shadows.

    Enjoying the montage pre game. Small things make us feel like a proper club and get people up for it.

    Fair team choice after Tuesday. Really like Lats as well so glad he’s kept his place and captaincy. Looking forward to it.

    I don’t see it as deep as that. JDS played well on Tuesday so there’s calls for him to start on Sunday. Also partially fuelled by Bidwell’s underpar performances recently. Don’t think there’s a ‘wank fest’ in this instance, just a fair debate.

    Insomnia

    Can fully relate to that third paragraph. My previous post wasn’t an exaggeration, unless we have a child free night (roughly once every few weeks) I don’t get a proper sleep. But I’ve learnt more and more as time has gone on, it’s fine. I’ll still do what I need to do next day and if it means I...

    Great thing about this is I don’t actually know what full strength is for Saturday - shows the strength of the squad and options we have. Does that mean Simms/Godden in for <someone>? Same as Tuesday offensively but Collins/Thomas in? What about DaSilva v Bidwell (as the former was excellent on...

    Fábio Tavares

    Yea he looked a level below last night, we have a team full of footballers and he isn’t technically good enough. Saying that, I’d still like to see him get a few cameos in games where we’re safe (if they exist), as it’s the only real option we have if we want to take Sakamoto off, not change...

    The queues

    The queues have been a nightmare all season. It’s a constant frustration and definitely worse than previous years. I use different turnstiles, (usually) arrive with a decent amount of time to spare and always had a ST so no messing about with paper/phones. I said this a few games ago and got...

    Allen injury

    Jesus Christ. That’s absolutely disgraceful. Bernard deserves a lengthy ban. Even worse when you consider the context of the game already being over, it hadn’t been particularly fiery and it’s Jamie bloody Allen - he’s not exactly known for winding up opposing players. Just no need at all.

    Wright having a frustrating game. His movement hasn’t been the best overall, and on the occasions he’s positioned himself well he’s taken a poor touch/wrong decision etc. I think Sakamoto looks tired.

    Massive police presence compared to usual. Queues are absolutely shit again.

    Insomnia

    100%. Even regardless of the no nappy at night stage (which is only the eldest anyway) they wake for a variety of reasons. Every night, at least once. So I go to bed every night knowing I’m going to get broken sleep. Hard when I have stuff on my mind too, as even if I’m only in their room for a...

    Insomnia

    Thankfully I don’t suffer from insomnia but I haven’t slept properly for 4 years i.e. when my first child was born. I do the night shifts, which could be once in the night for a few minutes, or multiple times and all for a long period. For example a few nights ago both kids woke up twice each...

    Land in Birmingham at 6, pick the kids up from the grandparents en route home, get them all in the house then shoot straight off to the game. Should make it for WLADITT, and if I’m lucky I might even have time for a quick pint to finish my few days off work in style. Think he’ll go fairly...
