I appreciate that Huddersfield is a long way from Plymouth, but just to let you know this was posted on Brighton's 'North Stand Chat' message board:

Fans Re-united - 24th September @ Home Park, Plymouth

I'm sure we're all aware of the plight of Argyle, and the amount of help they gave us (Brighton) in our (their) hour of need. I think it's time to repay that favour and declare their home game on the 24th September as FANS RE-UNITED DAY.

They are in real danger of them going into liquidation. This would then mean our friends down the road would no longer exist as a team. The knock on effect throughout the football pyramid would be immense (although certain teams will feel immune from it). Their players have taken a 60% paycut to ensure the team can survive for another few weeks. We, the fans of the sport, need to show solidarity with their team.

We need to rally the troops and take as many as possible down there to get behind Argyle. Take anything you can that will make a lot of noise down there. whistles, rattles, vuvuzelas, anything that's legal in a ground and will get heard. Let's make Home Park the noisest ground on the country for this day. If we (Brighton) could pull off a Fans United Day before the internet was a huge as it is now, can you imagine the potential now.

Wear your colours and show them how much support they have.

Please, if you're registered on a different football forum, copy this into their forum. We need to show the country how corrupt Risdale is.

Saturday 24th September is Fans re-united day @ Home Park

This idea is very much at the planning stage, but I thought I'd give you an early heads up if you are interested.

All the best.

Mack.

I applaud this gesture & wish them all the best.

I would also hope that it gains wider visibility and makes the powers that be sit up and take note that they need to do something about unscrupulous owners. There are plenty more Chairmen/owners at all levels that need investigating on many different fronts & you could repeat this exercise at many clubs every saturday.

I fear it will all fall on deaf ears though and as long as the 'football family' and the people at the top are creaming off a nice lifestyle their efforts to clean up the game will be no more than lip service...

I'm afriad football has its priorities wrong at times.

the greedy league seems to have no regards for the other end of the ladder. Without Clubs like Plymouth in the league, our famous league structure means nothing

Good luck lads.

My mate is a Argyle fan and he's reckons it's just a matter of time.

Could have been us not so long ago. The English is unique in that we have 4 full time leagues, not to mention countless part time leagues and if we start losing some teams then the magic of English football starts to fade

If it's not about winning...then why do we keep score!
