Tickets and coach Travel
Tickets for Argyle fans have sold out ... club website.
All tickets set for collection must be picked up from the ticket office at Home Park Stadium.
There are no collections on the day at the bet365 Stadium

The Miles Away Coaches have also sold out.

Referee
Robert Madley is the whistleblower for the game, he was the man in the middle for Argyle's 3-3 draw against Watford at Home Park in January. So far this season he has issued 112 yellow cards and five reds in 24 games.
He will be assisted on Saturday by Alex James and Blake Antrobus while Andrew Kitchen is the fourth official.

Pubs for away fans
There are very few places in close proximity to the ground and the town centre is a 40-minute walk from the stadium.
There is a Holiday Inn and a Harvester that allow away fans. A bit further away on Dennis Viollet Avenue is a Powerleague complex that also has a bar, which permits away supporters. Longton Rugby Club, which has two bars, is also an option and is around 20 minutes from the stadium.

If arriving by train, the Terrace Bar is minutes away from the station and welcomes travelling fans.

Car parking & travel
ST4 4EG. M6 junction 15, take the second exit onto the A500 and join the A50, once on the A50 take the first exit for the stadium.
Surrounding businesses near the stadium offer officially recognised pay-on-the-day parking. These are: Powerleague five-a-side football centre, Hem Heath Cricket Club, Longton Rugby Club, BFM Europe and Screwfix, these are around a 10 to 15 minute walk to the stadium.
One tip though is not to park on wasteland around the stadium as quite often they are patrolled by private parking enforcement firms and you will more than likely get a ticket.

They Played For Both
Paul Barron, Harry Burrows, Lee Chapman, James Chester, Jeff Cook, Paul Gallagher, Bjarni Gudjonsson, Lee Martin, Jamie Ness, Vincent Pericard, Anthony Pulis, Dave Regis, Mark Sale, Graham Shaw, Peter Shilton, Tony Spearing, Steve Woods. Any more?

I'm expecting this to be an extremely tough game and I think a different stoke will turn up to that of recent games.
$$ knows our players and Nancesnip inside out, stoke fans could also fill the stadium and make it hostile like we did against at HP Leicester.

This is the time for Hallets philosophy of outsmarting the opponents needs to happen. Nancesnip need to show their best poker face and play an Ace.. We need the fans, however many we take up to sing as loud as the full house at HP against Leicester..

1 game of absolute concentration , passion energy and commitment..
Nance needs to get the apparent reason $$ left pinned up in the changing room as added motivation.

And I do hope before the game their is no niceties from anyone towards $$, let's keep our eyes on the prize.

We've got this boys..
