Bigger accomplishment than last year?

[greenlight]

Last season was amazing and nothing can take away the feeling of being champions. However. They have been up against it this year, relegation favorites, manager changes and some big ugly teams to play. Despite our budget and everything thrown our way this season. They have done it! I think this season has been better then last. Let's hope a solid summer gives us the opportunity to have an even better 2024 - 2025 season!

Equally as good an achievement as last season, for me - but for completely different reasons.

As Dewsnip said in his pre match, both are fantastic achievements. You can’t have one without the other.

For me, it will take something special to beat last season. This survival is incredible and what it means for the mid to long future is huge. However, it would not have felt the same if we’d lost to Leicester and beat Stoke and Millwall.

This is much bigger than last year for me. Well done to everyone at PAFC. Nailed it. Onwards and upwards……

I dont think so. Last season was very special and you won't see many like it. Today was well achieved with the comings and goings.

Just below. I think Ipswichs 2nd promotion on the bounce and Wednesdays incredible last quarter form has put it in perspective for me.

Incredible to stay in the division another season but for me to stay up was the least I wanted if not expected. Lessons to be learnt but at least we have another chance to show that we can improve and have a better season next year.

Onwards and upwards!

Maybe it's equal. But we didn't get a break this season. So really, had things "balanced out over the course of a season" - as we kid ourselves to make things feel better - we would've finished close to mid table and been mathematically safe weeks ago.

Countless points dropped through poor refereeing. Whereas we only had the one offside goal given for us (the first goal in a 6-2 win).

We lost our talisman manager and our TWO most creative midfielders.

We conducted an interview process that gave us a manager, in Ian Foster, who wasn't the person on the grass he said he was at interview. (We know this because Simon has told us).

So ALMOST everything that could go wrong, did.

So did we overachieve? Perhaps we overachieved what everybody on the outside felt we would achieve. But I'm not so sure we did as well as we could of. But we got the job done - and now, that's all that matters.

Last season was amazing - and plenty of ole giffers like me think it might have just pipped 74-5 for edge of the seat thrills.

What a great way to stay up though. All four teams who could have gone down at the start of play managed to win. We had to do it the hard way, and not relying on other results to go our way.

Well done Argyle, see you next season. 👏👏

No. Absolutely not. Bringing in a disaster manager and ripping up your transfer policy is not something to be repeated. Self inflicted pain

Not even close, I don’t think we should have even been in this position today.

We need to get rid of the “lucky just to be here” attitude (respectfully).

 

[Alan Turing]

Staying up this season is a massive achievement, regardless of what’s gone on.

However, nothing compares to last season, the best ever in my opinion.

 

[Johnny Paradise]

I'd say yes, lowest budget in the league and our manager ditching us before xmas and taking the coaching staff with him. A monumental task to stay up then we hired Foster.....

 

[jerryatricjanner]

It's rare for all 3 promoted clubs from League 1 to stay up.

 

[IvyG]

Yes! Considering the adversity $$ put us in by leaving and taking the majority of key staff members and a player, it absolutely is!
