I think they have largely started with the same 11 and apparently looked a little tired today

Five games in five games need to rotate squad a bit

It's a big ask after a long season and then a heavy milk cup training schedule

Lads need a good rest over summer

Unable to make today but after watching the energy sapping game yesterday evening played in very heavy wet conditions we looked dead on our feet during the second half when chasing Rangers to keep the score down to two a piece. That game did not finish until around 8.30 pm so not surprised the lads were feeling leggy at a 12 noon kick off the following morning. Five games in Five days with a squad of 18....the Premiership with their too many games /two month winter break complaints could take a leaf out this particular Boys Own manual!. Still all to play for...keep it going lads.

Bugger!

It's s hellish schedule for a small squad.

Good luck against Middlesbrough boys.

It sounds like the lads have done themselves and the club proud with their displays. I hope we (as in the royal Pasoti we) continue to support the youngsters each year as it can only help them improve.

It seems a very,very nutty schedule. I know they're youngsters but even so that a big ask. Great to see them being competitive.

 

[Mark Pedlar]

They've taken 20 odd players. That should be enough to cope with the schedule.

 

[TynanWozGr8]

18 players inc 2 keepers

Very heavy schedule especially on heavy pitches

Played mainly same starting 11 first three games so no wonder looking tired

Attended the game today against Boro. Another very good performance against an Academy 1 side (I believe we are level 3). Again got off to a great start scoring within the first few minutes, played well against a side who moved the ball quickly to put us under pressure, and best of all did not let their heads drop after going behind and equalise with a well taken penalty in the last minute. Shame about losing the lottery of the penalty shoot out particularly as the lad who had his penalty saved in my opinion has been one of the outstanding midfielders in our team during the tournament. This squad of lads and coaches are a credit to Argyle.
