three matches in charge.1 win and 2 draws and a clean sheet against the daggers and a clean sheet today against some intimidating opponents by all accounts.

Never mind if we are being positive or negative, reflective or intuitive, the fact now is the forthcoming game at Aldershot has to be the most vital in the Club's history, I'd say EVER!! If an escape is ever going to be on then the team just above us is not one to lose to when you have played more games than most down there, I think including them. On Saturday a lot of boys in Green shirts must become men in armour. Our fans must infilitrate the place in even heavier numbers than usual and we must give as good as we get on the field of battle and not for a second be negatively leaning on a drawn sword.

I think Paul Sheridan has the right approach but he has been given so little time to about- turn the ship through 180 degrees by a certain non-decision to carry on regardless months ago. But we have what we have and it is massively important to get a result there. If not the water is not trickling but flooding in.

Its only worth 3 points like all the others - we could stay up if we lose and still go down if we win.

I would rate the FA Cup Semi in 1984 was the most vital in the club's history.

It's more mustn't lose than must win IMO. Other results go our way and it will be a point gained in the grand scheme of things. Certainly not the most important game in our history with 16 games to go.

 

[SurreyGreen]

Massive game.... cannot afford to lose. A win is needed but a draw is not a complete disaster it just builds up the pressure. We need to win games like these.

 

[crownhill pilgrim]

Yes, it is the most important game in our club's history since the last game and until the next game.

 

[pafcstafford]

It won't even come close to being the biggest of the season let alone history.

Of FFS, it's a bleddy game of football, not the end of the world! :roll: :funny:

Are you saying that an FA Cup final appearance is more important than League survival? Surely not.

 

[Tugboat]

Cannot afford to lose but we have to gamble a draw for a win IMO. Time to start being ruthless for the 3 points and not content in bring hard to beat.

That starts with dropping Murray.

 

[Emu]

Surely it's a 'three pointer', just like all the matches in the division?

And Blackburn Rovers (h) in 1992 was big too.

With the fat man's cash injections around the time, and the football gravy train just cranking up, survival might have inspired much more. Might.

Perennial struggler at the bottom of the league or conference also-ran - is there that much difference now?

I agree with this, I think the Blackburn match was a huge turning point in our history. Alot of things may have been very very different if we had managed to win that game. I cant think of a single other match in my history of supporting Argyle that has turned out to be quite so pivotal.

Historically in recent years these massive/must win/6 pointers have not been kind to us, and I'm afraid this one bares all the hallmarks of that fatefull day in Vicarage Road...

Agree. In recent years we have been particularly poor in these games and hence why we have been RELEGATION fodder.

Losing to the mighty Port Vale, Gillingham and all those "big" teams lol doesn't matter but losing to teams competing for RELEGATION does.

After February the fixtures only get tougher so the next 4 or 5 are must wins games as far as I am concerned otherwise we WILL GET RELEGATED

No lucky escape this year

Pleeeeeeease stop using capitals Sam. So f*****g ANNOYING !
