Saturday's game

i see there are new weather warnings in plymouth over the weekend with high winds and rain....

The game will go ahead, it has to as we are already 2 games behind most of our rivals

70 mph gusts and driving rain. Can't see it going ahead at all.

I am going might try the terrace

Crewe are arguably the best footballing side in the division. Maybe these adverse conditions will be a blessing in disguise for us?

The game will be on as long as the BPE roof don’t go flying about again

Agree about that I'd bite yer hand off for a point and a win would be result of the season for me.

Bizarre how we spanked them at their place on the opening day of the season.

We’re painfully inconsistent. Let’s hope we bring our A-game for this one.

Tbf it should be a good game. The teams we struggle against try to stop you playing football and they have no intention of playing it either. It why we hate this league.

there is no world cup final on this saturday so jon back wont leave it till after the game to do inspections lol. However if the weather is as bad as they are saying it will be i cant see the game going ahead hell they may even call of the albion game off in those conditions and tehy would never dream of doing that.

Being in LG 2 is like being a dumpling in a dog shit stew.

Occasionally floating to the top, may make it to the edges, then some cnut comes and stirs the pot and we sink again.

Luckily, whoever made this season dog shit stew hasn't added too much cornflower, so we find ourselves floating around the top quite a bit.

No, I have no idea what I'm trying to say either!

Albion game called off by the RFU due to weather conditions. Its only a matter of time guys tomorrows game isn't going to go ahead.

Crewe Alex will travel to Plymouth Argyle despite severe weather warnings

Crewe Alex players and staff will travel to Plymouth today (Friday) in spite of the severe weather warnings which threaten to see tomorrow's League Two fixture postponed.

The squad were training at Reaseheath this morning and are due to travel south this afternoon as they continue preparations for a second-versus-fourth class at Home Park.

Storm Dennis is due to hit Devon hard over the coming hours, with winds forecast to exceed 40mph by 3am tomorrow.

Doesn't look great for tomorrow-

with heavy rain and winds at 70 mph at 1500 at its peak,  i genuinely cant see it happening at all. Thankfully jon back wont leave it till the last minute again before deciding to call it off and do it earlier to stop crewe fans travelling down to far only to turn back. trains will be out anyways.

Does anyone want a ticket for the lower mayflower? face value obvs

Dennis might be the winner Saturday not Argo or Crewe.

What is Jon Back job now

Jon Back – Head of Stadium Redevelopment (Operations)
Trevor Richards – Head of Stadium/Facilities

Plymouth Argyle are closely monitoring the forecast for Storm Dennis ahead of their League Two top-of-the-table game against Crewe Alexandra at Home Park tomorrow.

However, the club say there is 'no reason, at present' to believe the fixture might have to be postponed.

Gales and heavy rain are forecast for tomorrow afternoon when a 10,000-plus crowd is expected for the visit of second-placed Crewe.

A club spokesperson said: "We are, of course, aware of the weather forecast for the weekend, and will continue to closely monitor conditions.

"There is no reason, at present, to suppose that that our top-of-the-table game against Crewe Alexandra is in jeopardy.

"If that changes, we will immediately inform supporters through the club’s communications channels, including the official website, [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

theres the answer to your question tgwu. hes the spokesman.

Dennis 1 - 0 Crewe

Everyone knows the pitch will stand up to the rain, strong winds granted but as long as the bloody roof does not blow off again my guess is it will be on.
Crewe have already travelled down and as I'm speaking not one single game in the football league has been posponed as of yet.
I hope it's on anyway if it does get called off that will be the third time this season my saturday has been keboshed by the bloody weather or other stuff.

Yep as far as rain goes our pitch will stand up to it no problem. As Punchy says if its in jeopardy it'll be down to the roof flapping or Argyle getting all anal about fans travelling to the game in safety etc.

This game is a too close to call kinda game but, I am going for a 2-0 win to Argyle.

If this manager and side are serious about going up, teams like Crewe have got to be beaten, regardless of what the weather throws at them.

its going to get called off there is no way they can play football in 70mph wind and heavy rain whether the pitch is perfect or not. Albion have had there game cancelled and if they have had to do that then you know its going to be bad as they would rather drown their fans in the wind and rain then call a game off. plus those conditions are going to make it dangerous to travel to the game which the FA wont allow or police for a starters. Crewe maybe in town already most of their fans wont be.

Games will be called off soon if not first thing in the morning thats for certain. I hope the weather isnt as bad as they are sayingof course and the game goes ahead obviously as 3 games to make up will hurt us as much as it could benefit us if results go our way but even now its starting to kick in the weather i generally cant see the game happening.
