Not 1 midfielder has held the ball up all day. 2 average teams and one with slightly less drive than the other. Argyal equally as poor but won on desire today, which is slightly concerning. Tactically shite would be the conclusion on that game today *edit yuta needs to start from now on, probably on the left of the midfield. And rudoni, dear me, this is his breakthrough year or bust for me, and that was a really poor showing from him.

Plymouth have barely lost at home in 18 months. They'll win plenty at Home Park and won't be close to going down. If we can escape from the position we were in in March, I'm not calling us relegated with 45 games to go.

Got to be worrying that Warnock has had a full pre season and we still can't pass a ball to each other.

I did not expect too much, like last season. Again I am still being short changed. The season started today, even for us, like it or not. All eleven have to frame, we didnt and still dont have the talent to get results unless they do. Its a very tough ask over 12 games, 46 games is another story.

yes , not many options to change a match or deal with injuries. What do you know or care? I was right about Mumba. Did you see him today or did you not watch the match?

After the crowd just fucked around with the ball did the ref actually tell edwards to walk a metre backwards on a throw in? That’s incredible I’ve seen players just walk around ten metres with the ball forwards.

Thanks Kev..... A poster yesterday was dismissing plymouths summer spend. I mentioned Mumba was one of the best in the EFL last year and looks like he was the difference. We have to show respect to the other clubs and also the strongest championship in a generation. I do not think kev gets it and the window combined with the tweets prove it. I am so glad we get a pre rehearsed doc where Kev wears sandals and talks about how he is working class yet never had a working class job. I wonder if people on here will finally wake up. Will you stop being so bloody bitter mate, it's like you're enjoying the fact we lost so you can bleat on more. We need some players in, we all know it but will you just chill the feck out.

Well that feels like a missed opportunity with points absolutely given away. All goals felt soft but the first in particular was a gift. I still don’t really agree with the premise that we are screwed this season, but with this being probably our best opportunity of the first month then it is a shame that we gave the points away so tamely.

Despite all 3 of their goals being from shit defending.

Goes without saying that a classy centre mid and a half decent striker would make a world of difference to this team. As someone posted previously, the lack of pre-season activity has been very unusual (particularly in context) and I think we need to really worry about what the reason for that might be.....

Great start to the day for us! Wonder if the other half will change out of his Derby County shirt before we go out? 🤣

3rd bottom, I predict we won't get above that all season. I predict you'll post the same tripe all season when Town lose. You have form. Deal with it

Loosing Pearson has cost us the game. 3 centre halves now injured.. We need Lees back desperately as REG can't even be a stand in. He isn't good enough for midfield either so warnock needs to find an alternative there too.

Normal service has been resumed. The problem is, I don't know how this is going to change. Looks like a relegation scrap from day 1, unfortunately.

If we can escape from the position we were in in March, I'm not calling us relegated with 45 games to go. Personally I think that Plymouth will be right in the mix for relegation. Only time I’ve seen them and so a one game sample probably isn’t fair but they did not look a side that will be comfortable.

If you need any indication of how far short we are it is seeing Jones, Harratt and Jackson as our solutions to try and save the game.

I don't rate Tom Edwards at all. Looks ridiculously slow and kept getting caught out. I don't no whether he's just rusty from not playing much or he's just poor.

Played ok for two thirds of the game but appalling defending & the lack of a decent striker has cost us.

I’ve never known a new owner voluntarily arrive with us and show no intent to make a good, early impression by making a signing or two. 3 points today is worth just the same as 3 points in May when they might be desperately needed. I’ll never understand why clubs seem so blasé during August. We either have a really strong plan and are sticking to it, KN has no ego at all and doesn’t care what folk think, or We are so financially screwed we couldn’t sign anyone even if we wanted. All a bit weird, really. How are people still not understanding it's this for the next 12 months? Despite it being said several times. This also makes your bits in blue null and void. Surely when that budget was submitted we didn't have the Coady sell on or the Camara transfer fee, so we should have something to spend?

So after that sort of a display against an average side with a weaker team than last season, even though it’s early, people have a right to be worried. We need quality signings regardless, this has nothing to do with the business plan because owners come in and spend whatever they want..
Something is keeping Warnock here though because no way would he want to spend a season like this.
IMO were obviously waiting for the right player, however, knowing town we will probably go sign someone washed up..
Never thought I’d say this but I think we missed Holmes

Well... where to start with that?
I actually had us down to win today. I think we were the better side but still very poor and without any quality.
REG - Simply not a Championship player, I still havent' seen him have a good game
Diarra - I've watched football for 30 years; that must be up there with top 5 worst performances I've ever seen. His first 3 touch gave away possession and his 4th tackled his own player and it got gradually worse from there!
Defence - Wow I thought Sheff weds looked cumbersome and slow, I thought this one the one area we'd be solid this season. Even Nicholls for the first goal.
..
It's game 1, I don't think its an understatement to say it's panic stations. We lost to a very poor side there and we are weaker than last season, we already have a fairly sizeable injury list and the we're lead to believe there's no money to spend.
If this wasn't the game to bring on Harrat and Hudlin I don't know what was.
Sorry NW but I thought our subs were too late and where was Headley? I thought he was one of our best players in the last 15 games of last season and pushed back the opposition; he was very hard to play against. I think NW got it wrong today. His picks of REG and Diarra let him down badly.
Not looking forward to the leicester game
