Top tip, Webby: To avoid being called out as a hypocrite with the morality of a tomcat, don't behave like a hypocrite with the morality of a tomcat. And also, Mr President, if you want to be left alone and not discussed on an Argyle Fans forum, a good way to move towards making this happen would be for you to resign as club President, dontcha fink? |

Trouble is, he won't wash the jodhpurs after he's jizzed in them and will wear them to the next away game. |

Why do you read the herald ? What earthly good does it do you that you can't get elsewhere for nothing, and with a better heart ? You know what will be in there, yet you still do it. |

| "Played better football than Luggy"? Really? I don't think so. How would he know anyway? "The Nearly Men"? Who coined that? Sounds snappy. Somebody should write a book about it so that Webby can pretend he was there at the games. "The Communication Workers Union's head of communications".. "who campaigned for Tory Boy Jonny Marine in the last general election" obviously didn't make the edit. "Webb did not want to single any one person out for the significance of their role in the club's recovery" swiftly followed by "I would say the appointment of Derek Adams was absolutely critical". "Players come and go." Some of them, unexpectedly, just after he's shagged their wives for some reason. Towards the end, and not for the first time, he's come out with stuff almost verbatim to that posted elsewhere shortly after the Newport game... - Quote :
- As I write this I have to admit to having partaken in alcohol. Not that excessively, ‘tis true. I have to be up at stupid o’clock tomorrow so had to cut the evening short.
“Why might that be?” you may well ask.
Today Argyle sealed a promotion by way of a 6-1 thumping of Newport County and to honest we might have scored 10. I suppose a last minute winner might be better but this is pretty good. Glory days don’t often come along to Argyle but today was definitely one of them. I’ve been going week in week out ever since I was a kid which is over 40 years now and I was there when we went up v Colchester in ’75, at Wembley in ’96, versus QPR in 2004 and today. In all that time only 4 promotions (there was a couple of others in 1986 and 2002 but I couldn’t make it to those games). That is only the start of it though. As a club we’ve gone as close to disappearing as any and hung on. We’ve endured 6 years in the basement division and only hung in there by the skin of our teeth on two occasions. Two years ago we failed in the play-offs. Last year we failed at Wembley. There’s been nothing to celebrate in any of those years other than our mere continuance and the disappointment has been crushing with last year’s Wembley capitulation a particularly gutless low despite the various calamities that had befallen us previously.
And now this…
The tsunami of joy, of celebration, of relief was like a force of nature at Home Park today: tangible; irrepressible. There was a vibrancy, an energy that simply must not be allowed to dissipate. We must build on this. It cannot be seen as an end to itself because, magnificent though it was, it is only a step on the journey.
But I don’t want to speculate about the future; I want to look back. Today’s team, management and owners will bask in the glory but that glory was only possible due to a level of dedication and sacrifice from a whole host of people: those who set up the Argyle Fans’ Trust with the very real intention of starting again from scratch somehow; the staff who went for months upaid; players (even if they were crap – and most of them were) who signed for us despite not knowing if they’d be paid or not – players who signed for us when nobody else would; Peter Reid for paying a heating bill; Carl Fletcher for keeping us up when all seemed lost; John Sheridan likewise; Vivien Pengelly (leader of Plymouth City Council at the time) for financing James Brent’s rescue package that allowed us to escape administration; everybody who put money into the club by chucking coins in buckets, buying season tickets when the next season wasn’t even likely to happen or buying merchandise they just didn’t need… Without them there would have been no Derek Adams; no glorious 6-1 promotion game; arguably no anything.
Argyle should never have been in this division and it should never have taken us 6 years to get out of it. Let us never forget how we ended up in “Division 4”; let us never take our eye off the ball and let us never allow it to happen again.
Today has been all kinds of wonderful and we’ve quite rightly celebrated the living daylights out of it but we must never, ever stoop so low again. The club, the fans, the city all deserve better than this and we should loudly, incessantly demand better.
No ifs, no buts, no excuses… this is not as good as it gets. All this is is a necessary stage that has to be gone through. We are nowhere near our glass ceiling, if such a thing exists at all; we must press on.
Greater glory awaits. Just add plagiarism to the list of reasons why he should resign, or be sacked, immediately. |

| Contrary to pasoti nonsense, the club takeover was a JOINT effort between the council and Brent, yet we never hear the refrain "The council saved us", do we. At the time, the council leader said they were sorry that a private sector solution had not been found. It seems underwriters like Brent get paid well these days, far more than the minimum wage, even more than professional footballers, and all for half a day a week.. |
