I hope you greens have all had a great summer and looking forward
to getting back into the football season, after the pilgrims secured their
football league status last season. This
season Argyle will begin the campaign with a Capital One Cup game against
Dockyard rivals Portsmouth. The reason
for starting a new a season with a cup game was so the games wouldn’t clash
with the Olympics that were held in London. This fixture will be a fans re-united game in
which fans from different clubs from across the country come down in support of
Pompey, who are in administration for the second time in as many years. Pompey who will make the trip down to Plymouth
without any professional players would have to fulfil a starting 11 of youth, a
non-league goalkeeper and their first team coach, who will come out of
retirement to participate in the evening fixture being played at Home Park.
The pilgrims come into the game with five new recruits added
to the squad. They include goalkeeper
Rene Gilmartin, strikers Rhys Griffiths and Johnny Gorman and midfield pairing
Paris Cowan-Hall and Andres Gurreri. All
of these players will be looking to impress the gaffer Carl Fletcher to be on
the team sheet against Portsmouth.
With former skipper Simon Walton moving to Hartlepool for
family reasons, Fletcher to no time to appoint vastly experienced centre back
Darren Purse to lead the team on the second round of the Capital One Cup.
Fans re-united will never die!!! GREEN ARMY.
