Angels making a come back

This may seem a bit mean-spirited, but they really ought to just let it go. I’m not sure what the aim of it all is? If it is going to be done to a real top standard - ie on the lines of Crystal Palace, then yeah. But it is for the most part a bunch of teenagers who really don’t have the co-ordination or talent to do it to a high standard. Because of that, it all just looks a bit naff and embarrassing. Village, if you like.

It's not even village.....Hamlet

Embarrassing, so feckin village, flags, dancing girls, bobble hats...........

You can't even call it inclusivity. In fact, if anything, it's quite the opposite, almost degrading. What's the point of pretending gender doesn't exist in the boardroom, when you get this sort of nonsense. All a bit 70s Americana. Maybe it makes Hallett feel at home.

It's only degrading because the Angels are useless.

Nobody in the grand ol U, S of A thinks the Laker girls or the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders are being "degraded."

I'd like to degrade a few fake tit cheerleaders :-)

that group have had more comebacks than sinatra.

perhaps they'll run out alongside a dancing bear as well

Well they do seem to have one fan on FB.

Oh the other sort of Hamlet...

With any sort of pre match guff like this, its always a little bit naff but when its badly done as Argyle inevitably will do it, it reaches another level.

Now, why am I not surprised about that, given such examples of good ol' USA macho sport. Shake it about girls, please the guys and you'll get paid well.
Can't see how it all fits in with Brent's vision of gender equality, inclusivity, or whatever it is he was harping on about in that boardroom of his. I guess being PC at heart ain't as easy as the thought.

Did you need to google that Hugh or are you well versed in The Bard

I'll tell ypou what would go down well, but they're sadly taken by the Pirates and their pre-match frivolities. The Falmouth Marine band.  Always a highly entertaining, amusing, and stirring preamble to any big sporting occasion west of the river. The Muff just doesn't get irreverence.

Is that so ? Take a look at this pimping. Care to retract your naive sexist nonsense ?

The Angels are a nothing more than a 21st century anachronism, they are also seriously shit at what they do.
Flags, dancing girls, all we need now is a lion tamer.

Bit of a marmite fing, init!

Personally, I couldn't care less. I'm sure the young ladies involved are intelligent enough to make up their own minds.

POI. I think you're forgetting girls are Avivas too, especially those who want to dress up in green every fortnight. It isn't just the guys who have a reduced sense of reality

Maybe Argo should have some young guys cavorting around the pitch in green boxers just to address the gender balance.

Could Oscar's heart take it?

If we're talking about girls on the pitch maybe Brent might allow Plymouth Argyle Ladies (who are highly successful) to play at least one game on the "hallowed turf".

How about adding pig trials

The Argo Angels seems quite a contentious subject. What about alternative half-time entertainment?


Sheep dog trials?
Bare trotter boxing?
Dwarf throwing?
Catch the greasy pig?
Pint throwing?

Does nothing for me but it's a bit of fun and a workout for the young ladies involved and they are young. Let them alone.

No.
Apples and Oranges you idiot.
