Apart from the obvious in Finn Azaz, that’s not a particularly stellar report card. In particular Mayor and Grant have had awful seasons, yet I felt both could have been decent options off the bench for us. Strange the way things turn out.

Butch has been a loss to us for the run in. Glad he has done OK though. He must have seen the writing on the wall with that idiot manager joining us.

Warrington sub for Everton in the prem😳😳. Is their squad that small!

Just shows apart from Azaz ,who wan’t our player ,and Butcher the rest have hardly pulled up trees since they left. I said at the time we should retain Butcher but was criticised because that would not have been the best deal for him.

He didn’t see the writing on the wall.He was offered a longer deal with Wycombe and we allowed him to leave. Argyle put his interests before the club.

The shocker for me is that Lewis Warrington has been on the bench 6 times for Everton. They must have a massive injury list, he could hardly even make Argyle's bench.

Isn't there some rule about having a quota of home grown players in a squad? Maybe that's why Warrington has been included.

We may be safe now had it not been for Butcher's howler at Cardiff.

We would be in relegation places without those minute goals we scored to win games... so many poor excuses for why we are where we are.
No one result earlier in the season can be the direct reason for being where we are.
It may have gone unnoticed but this is a 46 game season.
