So Campbell doesn't even make the bench, I mentioned a few weeks back about his alarming slide down the pecking order...

This is annoying. Every time an Argyle player gets caught on the ball they are dropping to the floor and getting a free kick. Ref’s falling for it every time. Couldn’t do anything about the goal though!

If you’re not on your a game you won’t get a game as we fire up the table

It's gonna be a long second half unless we get a quick second and third!

"Don't bother looking at the table until 10 games have been played". Alright 8-)

Never thought I'd see the day in L2, we now have the best GD.

This weekend last year, had just got turned over 3-1 by Exeter and were sitting 19th in Table with only 2 wins and 7 goals to our name
This year - just turned over Plymouth A, sitting 3rd in the table with 6 wins and 19 goals to our name

32 points from safety :) :)

Ten games in this has been a very good start. I doubt many would have predicted either ourselves or Crewe to be in the top three at this point but next weeks game looks like it could be a cracker between two great footballing teams for this level.

With only one relegation spot this season I'd imagine 25 points is a far more realistic figure :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Not just best GD. Top goal scorers too. Even with Reid out!

Nope, what are the bookies offering now? Can imagine our odds have shortened somewhat.

Get in. I cannot wait for next Saturday - how often have we been able to say that in the past three years?

7/2 is the best on oddschecker for promotion.

25/1 to win the league.

7/2 not much value but 25-1 is worth a small punt in a league with no clear favourites.

Mayor caused us a few probs first half but Duffo got on the case and he was running down blind alleys second half. Must be in with a chance of Manager of the Month? Another very competent performance all round.

If we beat Crewe, or even draw, then manager of the month should be a formality. Crewe are the only other team with 4 wins in the last 5, we're the only team with 4 wins from 4.

Indeed 7/2 is not great value. Which is why sensible folk took the longer odds still available after the Salford game.

It has been a great start to the season and to beat Bradford and Plymouth in back to back games shows we can compete with anyone in this league they will both be up there this season. I am trying to keep expectation levels down for now as we are only 10 games in but if we are in a similar postion come December January time then I will start believing. It is great just to back to actually looking forward to watching matches Crewe on Saturday should be a cracker!

Yes agree Ben, logically if we can still be in the FA cup and in or around the top seven come January we are well positioned to achieve something this year.
