I must admit, Argyle aren't that great with the women's team but, they've put cash in to take over our athletics "stadium" for the academy and the women's team so it might become more popular and that will attract better players. I hope so, you see a lot more women at the men's home games recently. 

My mate's daughter is a current England under 16 international and she is likely to be going to Chelsea. She won't play for Argyle. The facilities are terrible at the moment.

Her cousin Jack has one League 1 appearance for us.

Oh nice. Hopefully you get the backing because we need more teams to improve, so the competition can improve and so on.

No Sign of Football Whatsoever?

Manchester City vs Liverpool is a fabulous game of football.  

[Naysonymous]

Ha. 1-0 to Liverpool ten seconds after I post that.  It’s been great stuff, end to end, both teams playing really well and totally going for the win. 

[Art Vandelay]

Rodri lives a charmed life. Always worth sticking money on a booking for him as it’s free cash.

[Silent Runner]

Good first half. Thought Liverpool were hanging on slightly after the equaliser but they rode it out and had some decent chances on the break. Also, those double-height advertising panels are unbelievably annoying. 

[Naysonymous]

It’s been a capitulation the second half. Liverpool will do well to keep this at 4-1. 

[Hamus]

Even Grealish can score against Liverpool.

 

I wonder if they'll ever turn this funk around.

[SeanR]

When Liverpool scored first I said to the boy that city would score 6 for such insolence.

 

There’s still time!

[Shimmyhill]

Imagine if Man City had a striker on the field  

[Naysonymous]

They’ve had to slum it and make do with Argentina’s World Cup winning centre forward.

There is no funk as they won the league a few weeks ago when they beat Man Utd.

[bradigor]

Imagine losing 7-0 to this Liverpool team.

Sometimes you just turn up to play against a rubbish team expecting an easy win and get caught out with them playing their biggest game of the season. What can you do 🤷‍♂️

Yep, exactly what happened today 

[skadupuk]

It's been immediately better for Roy's first game, has 'Leicester 1-0 in the 89th minute with their first shot on target' written all over it.

The ridiculous thing about it all, is that despite having 0 shots and an XG of 0 we were the closest to scoring in that half, when Kristiansen’s cross hit the inside of the post. 
 

You guys were great, just lacked that cutting edge up front. 

[skadupuk]

Its going to be a lively last 30 minutes.

[Stopharage]

That just encapsulates our season. Wonderful goal followed by a free-kick hitting the bar and then going in off our keeper's arse. 

 

Also, Rodger's season in a nutshell. Inspired half-time substitution pays dividends within 10 minutes. Yet continues playing Daka when Iheanacho has a great scoring record against Palace. Go figure. 

[ilpostino]

That's a massive goal there for Palace. Last kick of the game, basically.

[Stopharage]

Championship here we come🥳🥳🥳

[skadupuk]

Fucking yaaaasssss!

 

 

[skadupuk]

Hard to argue it wasn't deserved 

 

 

[Shimmyhill]

Roy to the rescue, wow - thats a massive result given the form of both sides.

[DirkCrisis]

3-3 with Brentford. We struggle to beat them and it sounded like a ludicrous game with minimal defending. At least we got a point out of it.

[Loik V credern]

 

none apart from blue shirted guy on the right knows what overated means, he's already exasperated before he says anything. More entertaining than it might seem.

[Stopharage]

Bayern have just scored from their own half due to one of the worst goalkeeping errors you’re ever likely to see.
