No way would I want to be watching Argyle play league matches at grounds like that but imagine the fun when 1000-1500 Janners turned up at the turnstiles :lol:
So glad we don't have to face those grounds next season... 
Is Hyde's ground used by Man City and Rochdale? Just noticed their club emblems are on the stand there?

Reserve/Youth teams I believe.
It look like Braintree were playing Arsenal in the FA Cup. They have narrowed the pitch to give themselves a chance?
Let's try not to get too cocky, shall we? "The likes of Plymouth" are our Alfretons and Braintrees to many other Premier and Football League clubs and their supporters.
And, being "real football fans" as we claim ourselves to be, aren't we all supposed to prefer "real" football teams, grounds and supporters to the "plastics"?

Let's not be too hasty - lots of those grounds have a fantastic football history, especially Barrow. It wasn't too long ago that a non-league team would relish taking the big time Charlies on at home in the FA Cup and beating them (with the big boys quietly schizening themselves at having to play at Sutton or Worksop or wherever). Nowadays, they give the advantage away in exchange for the Premiership pound, but let's not forget that the grass roots is where it's still real. We're not so far away as some might think.
