I mean, what else can we do?


Absolutely nothing. I'm just very cautious about us going overboard about Holloway that's all. PR wise he's great (even if he is as mad as a box of frogs) but results and football wise we don't know yet

I was over the moon when we appointed Newell - say no more!

A bit too thick and too fast for me, excitement stoked and driven by the media, I'm hoping like everyone else he will be a success here, but we have suffered too many false dawns in the past, and I am nervous about this one

Have to admit, so was I ....... but I learned my lesson!

Buckley (mk1) had a team that didn't have one out and out goal scorer. It was an amazing squad that all chipped in with goals. Now of course, could be wrong, but only remember any player top scoring with around 18 or so (Rees/woods/big keef)

Over to you Les to prove me wrong

Majority of Plymouth fans think it will be a mistake letting him go.

From a team sitting in 6th, he can't be bad at all


They're not letting him go exactly. His contract expires in a couple of days.

He’s been a good player, but had some really bad injuries.
Has played wide a lot as well as up front.

Hopefully he’ll be a good one.

Time will tell with any new manager.  Besides the good PR, we have had 2 wins without conceding.  One win away with only 10 men for 80 mins.

This after no wins for more than the previous 3 months.  I would therefore argue that the results on the pitch are going in the right direction - even at a very early stage.

I'm not sure Hollowy can claim either of the two victories, aided by the all round feelgood factor maybe (which can't last forever) but hardly as a result of his tactics, input to the team selection etc.

Nonsense, He can claim the Mansfield win for sure. Despite only 1 training session there were signs of things he wants to implement. I,e committing men forward when in possession, leaving a man on half way line when defending corners and players in more space to receive the ball. These are things we’ve not been doing until Saturday IMO. Looking forward to more of that Saturday, hopefully with 11 men!

Plus he was screaming instructions from the touchline constantly, moving Clifton about, making the right subs when Ogbu tired etc.

Against Salford he could have had an indirect effect giving a motivational boost to player's, after all he went into dressing room to have a word. And they would have been keen to impress.
