gingerninja Posted August 30, 2017 Report Share Posted August 30, 2017 If that logic works PSG should wipe the floor with the French league given their budget, but they didn't last season did they? Paper never won a football match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerninja Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Parkway probably won't go undefeated as there's always a game where even the big teams slip up. Have a feeling Argyle will flood the squad when they face Parkway to try and prove a point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me laugh some people on here actually think people at Argyle are ultimately that worried where they finish in the SWPL. The team is in the league to develop their young players and give some of their pro's game time. Granted, the league is pretty competitive at the top and the will to win should be a factor for professionals and aspiring professionals, but to actually make beating Parkway a priority and make their top pro's available at the potential expense of affecting an upcoming first team game? Absolutely no chance whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Maybe Argyle would prefer Parkway to fail to achieve promotion. Their ambition to progress through the leagues seems well documented. It could have a negative effect on gates at Home Park eventually? But in essence I agree with your sentiment HB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In contrast I can see Argyle relishing the competition within the city. As far as support goes - there's many a Cornish based Argyle supporter who would never change their allegiance from Home Park.

baldy Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 I couldn't care less as I have no connections to Plymouth. I was just trying to justify ginganinja's comment, whilst basically agreeing with HB's comment. Subject closed for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely no chance whatsoever. Perhaps you know why they are the only English football club that play at this level, all other clubs with reserve sides play in separate competitions for the reserves. Maybe because its unfair on local teams that may have built up a competitive league. Argyle fans kicked up re the inclusion of premier clubs under 21 sides in the league cup, as they had players with premier experience and had an unfair advantage over lower clubs - no difference to those that disagree with Argyle in this league. Clubs in this league just have to ignore the Argyle results, as its not a level playing field and not to draw conclusions from those results as to the status of the winners or losers.

After the friendly some Argyle fans have started to attend Parkway games more frequently, even though they got promoted themselves. Is it no surprise that Argyle flooded their team against Exmouth, another side looking for promotion? As mentioned above, Argyle fans have kicked up a stink about Premier League and Championship sides have their academy sides in the EFL trophy, yet are more than happy to see their team in this league. Double standards? Another way to look at it us against the likes of Parkway, the Argyle players will get a good run out against half decent opposition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Poldark Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 Let's focus on tonight's game. Could be another wild score - I'm saying 9-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They got battered the following week by Falmouth. Parkway have too much quality this year to not win the game comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE BALD ONE Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 I remember in this fixture last season someone from the dugout area keep calling out ............ "what a waste of money" .

Rob1978 Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 The idea that argyle care whether or not exmouth get promoted is ludicrous. As for parkway a senior nonleague club in the city would probably be in their interests as it creates a pathway for youngsters in the city.

Mike Odgers Posted September 2, 2017 Report Share Posted September 2, 2017 If Plymouth Parkway has intentions of taking promotion I dont think any club will care about the budget-It would be good for the SWPL and THE FA to see some movement. It is becoming stale and static-a bit like the old SWL Who would have thought Bodmin would be 19 points adrift of the league leaders after four weeks of the season?

No pics on Facebook either of what he’s had for breakfast….after that drumming last night a large portion of Humble Pie should do the trick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
