This is their version of Cardiff (H)/Plymouth (H). Playing us then QPR at home in a week with a new manager in charge.

They’ve got Burnley, Sunderland and West Brom after those two games, and already need to win two more games than we do. Think this is pretty much a must win for Argyle.

Hopefully it'll be a case of after the Lord Mayor's Parade. Or the new guy meets them tomorrow and makes an awful first impression and demotivate everyone!

Hopefully it’s just an awkward and clunky week for them. They’ve just had three positive results with their caretaker manager culminating in a huge win against a PL side, and now they’ve got a change in leadership and a different voice. If that undermines the recent momentum they’ve built to any extent, a huge pressure game against an in-form side probably isn’t what they need.

Assuming these are all outside the ground? (no jokes, I know there isn't going to be a van inside the ground, you know what I mean)...
It sounds good, but when you think about it, pretty much all pastys count as locally made down there, Ginsters are a sponsor, etc...

Just watched the MOTD highlights vs Brentford.
If they play like that on Tuesday, we will struggle.

Hardly a stellar performance from Argyll, it was just that their defence made it's first appearance of the season while Brentford were unusually wasteful in front of goal. Two shots on target apiece, one went in.

It will give them a bit of confidence but that will soon dissipate if we can score early....

If I remember correctly after our huge win against PL Swansea, 10 years ago, we then went and lost at home to Bristol Rovers.
 
Some info for those travelling on Tuesday. Outside ground two large carparks with free parking. They fill up quickly. There is off atreet parking again does fill up. Don't try and park where one shouldn't the wasps will be out with their tickets. Ayreville road area is ten minutes walk and normally spaces walk down fircroft road and follow crowd to ground. Opposite carparks is an esso garage with Costa machine. Any questions fire away
 
It's going to take a while to get back. The M5 will be closed northbound just past Exeter
 
Draw will be a good result, conceding 1 or less point to any opposition a season, is at least 4 point gain.
In context just over 2 points from everyone this season, would see us safe
