| Fair play to them, Torquay have fulfilled and even exceeded their potential at times.
Argyle certainly haven't. |

| The point I'm trying to put over is that "Big" doesn't equate to better.
That big is only relevant against which it is judged.
That crowds of 6k DO NOT equate to big.
Even being "Big" does not help being inadequate on the playing field.............and potential is just that ~ potential; and potential slips even further into the distance and realms of possibility the further down you slide.
You need to be pressuring your owner and his sycophants that what you have on the field on a Saturday afternoon (or Tuesday night for that matter) is not acceptable. That what passes as a manager at your club is not acceptable given the club's current plight; and that if it is judged as being such by the powers that be then you are in extreme danger of sliding further into obscurity.
I don't care who you judge as your rivals and who as your fondly regarded harmless little neighbour. The FACT is that both Exeter City and Torquay United are now properly run and realistically managed organsisations...............are Plymouth Argyle?
I'll leave you to work that out for yourselves. |

Tringreen is right I AM banned from PASOTI ~ from posting anything that doesn't toe the IJN line and not having it either deleted or moved. I don't play those games ~ THEY are the really deluded ones ~ there is a sense of reality on here save for a few who really seem that to be big is the cure all. |

| Merse, are you free on Saturdays and the odd Tuesday? Could you come and manage our little club please? |

| The penny has just dropped. Is this 'Merse', actually Paul Merson of Arsenal, Middlesbrough and drink bottle fame? |

Same family ~ different generation.............Paul's grandfather was my father's cousin. He has absolutely no connection with the Westcountry (being a Greenford lad) whilst my great, great grandfather found himself down there having progressively moved West from Iver in Bucks building Brunel's Great Western Railway. I guess the thought of ending up in Plymouth and his offspring becoming Argyle fans persuaded him to jump off at Newton Abbot and have them support Torquay! |

| You should constantly speak in pigeon English and attempt rhyming slang as well.
"He's hit the beans on toast"
I'd certainly respect you more. |

If you plastics had any knowledge outside of your ever decreasing comfort zone you would know that Darlo's ground is far bigger than yours. |
