Squad

A one-man rearguard from Murphy Cooper

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Player ratings

Jack MacKenzie pops up at the right end — 7.90

7.90, 1 on the scoresheet, and the specific comedy of a back-four player celebrating like somebody who does this every week. He does not, and that is exactly why the ground reacted the way it did.

The dugout

Ollie Wright: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Plymouth Argyle have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Match

Plymouth Argyle see off Bolton Wanderers

Three points for Plymouth Argyle, 2‑0 the final word against Bolton Wanderers in a contest settled by the finer margins.

The dugout

A promise honoured for Brahian Ayala

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Plymouth Argyle told Brahian Ayala something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

The dugout

Mark Harvey: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 2‑0, already talking about the next one.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Conor Hazard

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

Jack MacKenzie finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. Plymouth Argyle have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.

Looking ahead

Ronan Curtis faces his old club

AFC Wimbledon next, and one man in the Plymouth Argyle dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

Transfer targets

No thanks: Bruno Marques rejects the move

Plymouth Argyle had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Varzim, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Xavier Amaechi

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Transfer targets

Grasshopper tell Plymouth Argyle: Luke Plange is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad

Appearance number 100 for Murphy Cooper

100 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.

Transfer targets

Plymouth Argyle try to borrow Bruno Marques

Varzim have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Transfer targets

Plymouth Argyle try to borrow Fréderic Soelle Soelle

RWDM have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“I am frustrated, honestly. We did enough to win and we did not win.” Mark Harvey was not hiding it after 0‑0, and nobody in the Plymouth Argyle dressing room was either.

Match

Point won or two lost for Plymouth Argyle?

Ninety minutes, no goals, and the argument started before the car park emptied: a point gained, or two thrown away against Bradford City? Both sides of it will still be going on Thursday.

The dugout

No place in the plan for Julio Pleguezuelo

The manager wanted a different profile for this opponent, which is a real football reason and no consolation. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market

Joe Edwards hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Plymouth Argyle can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Ollie Wright arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Ollie Wright has, at Plymouth Argyle, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Ammar Ramadan

Plymouth Argyle asked and DAC Dunajska Streda said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match

Lorent Tolaj sends Plymouth Argyle past Huddersfield Town

It finished 1‑0, and it was Lorent Tolaj’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Plymouth Argyle.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Lorent Tolaj

Marked 8.12 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

Lorent Tolaj reaches 100 appearances

100 games in the shirt. Nobody sets out to build a record like that; it happens to a certain kind of player at a certain kind of club, and this town knows what it has.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Bruno Marques is in the works

Plymouth Argyle have made the call to Varzim. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Match

Owen Oseni rescues a point for Plymouth Argyle

It needed Owen Oseni to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Doncaster Rovers, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

The dugout

Mark Harvey: “We have to be better”

“It is not the end of the world and it is not good enough. Both of those are true.” The manager, after a 1‑1 draw, said the honest thing and then went to say it again inside.

In brief
