Plymouth Argyle 1 Wigan Athletic 3: Match report

IF Saturday’s result from Home Park did not raise any eyebrows, that should not take away from a performance that, appropriately enough on a day when Argyle celebrated their Academy, bodes well for the future.

It is a measure of the Pilgrims’ quick strides in League One that, whereas, when the two teams met at the DW Stadium in September, Argyle sometimes looked overwhelmed, now, there...

Doncaster Rovers 1 Plymouth Argyle 1

ARGYLE stretched their unbeaten run to eight game with a battling point at Doncaster that defied all expectations.

Not that the Pilgrims were not expected to get anything; more that the style in which they played, getting better the longer the game went on, was totally unlike the approach Derek Adams had previous taken against Rovers.

Doncaster were on top in the first half,...

Plymouth Argyle 3 Bury 0: Match report

ARGYLE’S remarkable resurgence continued as they notched up a fifth successive home victory for the first time in more than three years to take themselves into the top half of Sky Bet League One just seven games, and six weeks, after limping away, defeated, from Portsmouth in bottom place.

Much of their renaissance has been down to the midfield contribution of Toumani Diagouraga, whose...

Blackpool 2 Argyle 2: Match report

ARGYLE suffered late heartache for the second time in three away games as Blackpool snatched an injury-time equalizer to undermine a towering – there, I said it – defensive display by the Pilgrims.

A quite remarkable goal from Graham Carey – even by his standards – in time added on to the end of the first half, after Ruben Lameiras had opened the scoring six minutes earlier, put the...

Milton Keynes Dons 0 Plymouth Argyle 1

DO not ever moan about repeats in the Christmas schedule again.

Eight years after a classic episode in Argyle's history played out in Cardiff, an encore performance was shown in Milton Keynes.

Gary Sawyer's last previous goal for Argyle was at Cardiff City Stadium, on December 26, 2009, in a 1-0 win. Forget Del Boy making his millions and the Vicar of Dibley eating four...

Plymouth Argyle 4 Oldham Athletic 1: Match report

ARGYLE sent Plymouth into the party season singing and dancing all the way to Christmas Day with a convincing and thoroughly enjoyable victory over Oldham Athletic that took them out of the Sky Bet League One relegation places.

They made a flying start against opponents who had jetted down to the Westcountry, and were two goals up and well on their way to their biggest win since...

Rotherham Utd 1 Plymouth Argyle 1: Match report

IT was nearly a perfect homecoming for Ryan Taylor.

Much of the latter part of 2017 has been a nightmare for the forward, who was injured in Argyle's season opener at Peterbrough, and remained crocked until earlier this month.

After regaining his place in the side, he led the line at Rotherham United, his first club, in the town where he was born. And scored what looked like...

Plymouth Argyle 2 Gillingham 1: Match report

TOUMANI Diagouraga timed his first Argyle goal to perfection, netting a last-minute winner to lift the Pilgrims off the bottom of Sky Bet League One.

Toums, as he is – thankfully – known by everyone, slotted home in front of the Devonport end after the Pilgrims, who took the lead through Joel Grant early in the second half, looked like they might have to settled for a share of the...
