Ryan Hardie has dedicated is two goals to his stepfather Neil. RIP

Ryan Hardie has dedicated is two goals against Peterborough United on Tuesday night to his stepfather Neil, who sadly passed away last week.

Ryan scored the opening two goals in Argyle’s 4-0 Carabao Cup first round victory over Posh to progress through to the second round for the fourth time in four seasons.

It was on the way to our opening Sky Bet League One game against Rotherham United on the weekend that Ryan found out the news his stepfather had died.

Ryan said, “I got the sad news when I was travelling to the Rotherham game. I know he would have been watching me tonight.”

It most certainly was a performance to be proud. Hardie scored two and was a constant menace to the back three of Peterborough all night.
