Last night Burton achieved a club record of nine successive away games without defeat. They are unbeaten away from home in 2021.

Hopefully now they have broken through the 50pts barrier, players will ease off a bit believing they are safe, like some other teams appear to do.

A rather inform Burton against a lack lustre error prone Argyle- it will just be the law of Argo that they pull it out of the bag & get the win & the 3 points we have been craving for the last couple of games

It will be interesting to hear what RL comes out with tomorrow at his prematch interview after his comments on Saturday & if a player is interviewed will they be open & honest about how they want the season to finish

Do they feel the frustration of the green army & are they determined to finish the season on a high- i certainly hope they are endeavouring to give their all for the last 5 games & not as some have mentioned that they are already on their jollies & just going through the motions

I am hoping professional pride will be the motivation for these players as i dont like to think that they wont give 110% for 90 plus minutes

I know none of us have had too much to cheer about recently but you certainly have become very pessimistic since your first post less than 2 months ago.
Only 5 more games to suffer.

Glass half empty here. 2-0 loss.

Has anyone genuinely seen anything recently that suggests we're going to put in a sterling performance full of passion and pride?

Hasselbaink has certainly turned things around for Burton since taking over in January and I don't expect too much from this game if I'm honest but Iwould happily like to be proved wrong.

Burton on a roll and in the goals and sadly, I think that will continue on Saturday

Agreed. As far as I am concerned, Burton and Gillingham away are on a par as far as Argyle's playing fortunes are concerned.
Bringing home a barrel of draught Bass from the brewery would be nice, however! :shock:

Well i have my 1st COVID vaccination today- i have a serious needle phobia & i am dreading it (Argyle face mask will be in service)

Hopefully the boys will be on point & get the jabs in early (1st half) to secure the points

You won’t even notice the jab. It’s in and out before you know it. Just don’t look. You’ll be fine.

Yep had mine yesterday. "Sharp scratch". It was pretty much painless, no side effects either. Good luck.
