3 awful goals to concede and huge chances not taken. That could so easily have been a different result with any sort of composure.
1st REG poor initial header, then an even worse one from Helik under no pressure and then can't sort his feet out as the ball comes back.
2nd Sorba gets turned too easily, but after that where is the defence? You can't just run in a straight line for 20 yards and have no one there to make a challenge.
3rd looks offside, but even so both REG and Helik can see the danger clearly and do nothing about it. Way too easy for a simple pass through with no cover.

Entirely predictable following on from a terrible preseason of zero activity. If Pearson is injured who replaces him? Is it ok that we’ve off loaded Boyle now? Ayina/ REG and yes. He's nowhere near Championship standard whatever position he plays in.

But whilst we’re all kicking REG, I saw nothing from either of Edwards, Ruffells, Ward and Pearson today that was anything better. Nobody seems to be annihilating Koroma even though he arguably missed a dreadful opportunity. And we’re all keen to kick an academy prospect who, we alls em to forget, hit the post for the first and created our best opportunity in the second half. There were many crap performances out there. But we need a focus, don’t we.

After match players staff going down tunnel fans shouting to Ronnie to sort them out he replied and said that was shit he looked angry. Soon as sorba let the guy run 25yrds I said to guy next to me he's off Warnock was fuming on side line After equalizer only one team going to win so I thought Problems Pearson injured hope not long term No midfield Sorba soft as shit Reg should be nowhere near the side wouldn't get a game at golcar Ward been Warnocks son. Hudlin should have come on especially with the wind Lot to improve on Main positive hogg And don't need to travel back till next week Agree with a lot of that. But I am 200% sure REG would get a game at Golcar 😁 Regarding Ward. We seem to play a different tactic when he plays. He gets zero service. But when he doesn't play we seem to then create lots. Is this down to Wards game or the tactics used depending on if Ward is on the field? I know we want a cup run. But I would be trying Hudlin and Rhodes as a 2 against Boro.

I can finally agree with you on something!

He's nowhere near Championship standard whatever position he plays in. REG. Managers say he's fantastic in pre-season. He plays the first few Championship games. He looks out of his depth and very slow. We send him out on loan. Repeat.

Prior to kick-off, we were in 7th place in the league table (alphabetically). High point of the season?

We actually looked the better team for much of the game, which to me, indicates that Plymouth will struggle. Mumba looks a really good player but the defending for his goal was just schoolboy at best. In fact, all 3 goals were awful, Nicholls massively at fault (twice) for the first & a flat-footed, slow defence highlighted for the 3rd. How can people not see that REG should be nowhere near a Championship team, at FB, CB or DCM? Edwards has a decent throw but if he can't defend better than that, he's just not worth his place, let's hope it's just rustiness. Diarra is so frustrating, you don't know what you're going to get, he goes from the sublime to the ridiculous, but should be used as an impact sub. Koroma really poor, Sorba still making stupid challenges when we are in an attacking position. How can Hudlin not get onto the pitch after his pre-season, while Ward, yet again, offered nothing? I thought we'd win comfortably at half time, the wind was so strong but instead of shooting from distance with that wind behind us, we offered f all. Very disappointing, but all too predictable. Plymouth may well struggle,but they beat us 3-1, what is your prediction for Town? I ask as some have said that despite all the players that have left we have as strong a first eleven as last year. In the prediction thread table I think I have both teams as bottom 6 but not relegated.

But we need a focus, don’t we. The point being that imo REG shouldn't be anywhere near the starting eleven (unless there's nobody else) and the possible replacements for Pearson would be Yuta (Helik moves to the right), Ayina (as you said) and Lees when fit. As for Pearson himself, he's far better than REG. As for the rest of the team, there were some good and bad performances and Diarra, whilst frustrating at times, was still our most dangerous attacker having had at least four shots, one ofnwhich led to the goal.

But can anyone tell me what Sorba offers in the final 3rd if it isn't a dead ball set piece? He's caught ball-watching all the time it was his non-tackle that led to the goal. Koroma's lost ball in Mid-field led to another. We have no players comfortable on the ball in the middle of the park or don't play as a unit away from home. I'm Hoggys biggest critic but he looked like the best Town player today. He can't carry on forever. We need a reboot at Town the sooner the better or we go down this season

Kiero is a really good player. But REG is a professional. Regardless of how weak he is for the championship. I couldn't see Kiero playing any higher than maybe the conference level.

I can't believe anyone thought we'd win today.
The team is stale and lots of those players were involved in a thoroughly miserable season, where we were in the relegation zone almost continuously until the very end.
Entirely predictable start. It's not inconceivable that we'll be rock bottom with zero points in four games time either.
There feels to be a lot of complacency around too, "it'll be ok because we have Warnock" appears to be the notion.

Obviously it was tongue in cheek but come on, when will people admit that he just isn't up to it? It's like Groundhog Day.

Our effort was good, we are what we are! But the fine margins highlight a scoreline that flatters them as underperforming and ourselves as not being clinical. Two mad goals in 3 minutes kills the game just as we were comfortable at 1:1 and pretty much dictating the game but hey Ho…. Some posts on here beggar belief, who do you think we are? We will do our best with what we have under NW, today was Argyles big day….full house, first game back in championship etc… We’ll be alright come April UTT from Cornwall

But playing Hudlin, it's like a comedy sketch. Do people really think he is the answer? Willing to eat humble pie, but he is lower LG1 standard.
