Scunthorpe 1 Argyle 4: Match report

ARGYLE claimed a memorable victory at Glanford Park, winning in comfort and style to triumph for only the second time in Scunthorpe in the club’s history.

Freddie Ladapo opened the scoring with his fifth goal of the week of his life after a period of early dominance from the Pilgrims, and the lead was doubled in first-half injury-time by Scunthorpe youth-team product Niall Canavan....

Plymouth Argyle Community Trust supports patient’s post-op recovery

David Saunders, 66, from Plymouth has undergone successful ankle fusion surgery at Peninsula NHS Treatment Centre – and he has arranged with Plymouth Argyle Community Trust that he and others like him can use the club’s state-of-the-art astro turf for their recovery.

A number of fractures when he was younger left David with problems in his feet and ankles. He lived in the US for 15...

Argyle 2 Burton 3: Match report

OF all the defeats suffered by Argyle this season at Home Park, this one probably hurt the most.

The Pilgrims led twice against their Staffordshire opponents, through Freddie Ladapo’s fourth and fifth goals of the season, in an exciting first half.

Each time, however, they were unable to capitalise on their lead, nor defend it for long enough, as Kyle McFadzean and Lucas Akins...

Oxford 2 Argyle 0: Match report

WHEN times are hard, you need your friends, so there was some irony that Argyle’s latest defeat was inflicted upon them by two popular former Pilgrims.

United’s goals that gave them a win which saw them leapfrog the Pilgrims at the foot of Sky Bet League One came from forward Jamie Mackie, who scored 16 goals – including one just seconds into his debut against Barnsley – in 102...

Argyle 1 Wimbledon 0: Match report

It has been a while coming but Argyle claimed their first Sky Bet League One win of the 2018-19 season – and avoided an unwanted club-record winless streak – thanks to Freddie Ladapo’s haeder midway through the second half.

Ladapo had earlier spurned an opportunity of a golden hue and fair play for him for not letting that haunt him, as he stole in to convert Graham Carey’s cross to...

Argyle 2 Doncaster 3: Match report

A FIRST SkyBet League One win of the season remains frustratingly out of reach for Argyle, who lost by the odd goal in five against Doncaster Rovers.

For the visitors, a fourth successive victory was secured through two goals from John Marquis and one from Matty Blair. Argyle’s replies from Ruben Lameiras and Graham Carey were of much higher quality, but where goals are concerned, it...

Cold comfort away from home for Argyle

Argyle came within two minutes of deservedly taking something home from the Valley after another performance which promised much but delivered nothing.

Already without three defenders, they lost two more to injury – as well as midfielder Antoni Sarcevic – during a game played at a relentless pace which was settled by Karlan Grant’s late goal.

Grant had already netted once, in...

First away point for Argyle

ARGYLE have their first away point, and Bristol Rovers have their first home point.

That is the sum total of what came out of a game which spotlighted two teams short on wins, points and confidence.

It was a game not devoid of action, as each side had periods of offence in which it looked like a goal must surely follow, but particularly good saves by each side's goalkeeper were...
