Did not go to the match and wondering if anyone who did had any comment on trialist midfielder Sean Downing who came on in the second half. I think he plays for Bideford. If he is one of the same then a few seasons ago he was even in lower leagues playing for Appledore, To me he looked like a fish ...

I read somewhere about him having injury problems, just worried hes going to be on the treatment table more than on the pitch.

A bit of a quiet game today, other than the goal I can't really tell you what happened but it's another 70 mins or so for the players so can't complain. Thought Weymouth were a good side, well drilled and well structured. Anyone know about Davis' injury? I'm just worried we've only got 2 pre season ...

Just about! he's young enough that he could be retrained in both full back positions ideally as he's right footed I believe! If we can make Verma into a full back then anyone can be one!

The squad is slowing coming together, need another winger and possibly a full back for cover but Chaney could be that person. I never thought I would say that!!

Didn't exactly set the world alight but he was steady and I don't feel he was really out of his depth in any way.

Up at here at York..........................................ok, i'll get me coat. :lol: Anyway, do they even use computers in Barrow? I know they like to hurl rocks at opposing teams supporters coaches with disabled fans inside up there. Must be all those fingers. Such moronic behaviour, I wish too...

Fully agree with you on this. According to wiki, he played 16 games for Truro last season and failed to score. I think that tells its own story. If I remember rightly, he didn't leave by choice - his contract was terminated, although I'm not 100% sure on that score. Even Karl Hawley managed three g...

The simple answer to that headline is no! Stick to the ice cream Mr Whippy!

We matched a league one side?? Only 6 of those Plymouth players at the very most are likely to figure in the first team senior, also we did lose 2-0 and they missed a penalty... get real! Majority of the side they played will be in and around the first 11, the first goal was unstoppable and the sec...

First half we played well Gosling was going past players for fun Keating was chasing every ball and Gray was aggressive and constantly hassling the Argyle back line. Our back four was a bit shaky at times but with 2 players playing out of position, Chaney and Klukowski, that would be expected at tim...

Good point, could he be the missing man we need on the right side of midfield?

Realistically he would be cover for Higgins dependant if Higgins plays well of course. Lee's career may stall if he is sat on the bench where if he was back at Bournemouth U23's at least he would be playing, even if it was in Premier League 2, or whatever they call the reserves league nowadays.

Happy with this, every game he's played he's scored irregardless of the opposition. Also gives Keating and JP a bit of competition, something we lacked at times last year

Anyway, back to the point of the thread!

League: 12th
FA cup: 2nd round with hopefully a big money home tie
FA trophy: quarter final
Player of the season: Young, who else??
Young player of the season: Keating
Top scorer: JP Pitman
