Is Jarvis' loan deal valid until the play-off final?
What are the prices for Cheltenham away?
Why are our fans having a go at Manse and Eunan on Twitter?

Anyone having a go on twitter should be ashamed. Probably little f*ckwits on the dole who thinks the world and the football club they supposedly support owes them a favour. Think Jarvis is with us for the playoffs and hopefully longer term if Ling can sort it.

I might be being stupid but I can't find anything on Twitter that is critical.
I think to be honest Eunan's contribution over the recent games has been under-rated because we all expect so much of him - people think he's going to deliver Plymouth at Plainmoor like goals every time and when he doesn't they say "oh, Eunan's not at his best" because he hasn't done something amazing that stands out.
But in that centre midfield he's doing his job by doing the basic stuff better than other Div 2 players and it's a major reason why Hereford never kept the ball for more than about 10 seconds in the second half yesterday. For his physique Eunan wins loads of headers and tackles, his first touch is normally sound and buys him a yard or extra bit of time, and he has that bit of extra pace compared to our other players, which is seeing him win possession back for us when he shouldn't be favourite to get the ball because the opposition player is a yard or two ahead of him. It's the slow ones that go in a bit late and end up taking the legs whereas Eunan is retrieving the ball. Similarly when he's a yard ahead or in a yard of space he drives forward over 5-15 yards and stays ahead of any opponents trying to tackle back, drawing another defender to come and confront him and making space for others.
Every time we've thrown on extra attacking subs and with Eunan and Manse behind them we've totally dominated as when we were behind against Bristol,Port Vale, Oxford, Hereford.
