Oxford vs Argyle - Preview


The last time Argyle and Oxford met at the Kaasam Stadium was last season in which the Pilgrims lost 5-1. This was there heaviest defeat.  Most of the squad on that Tuesday evening last season were aging between 17 and 19. The greens were still in administration at that time with James Brent trying to finalise a deal to buy the club from being liquidated. Thanks to James Brent Plymouth still has a club. 

Durrell Berry and three of Carl Fletchers summer signings Jamie Lowry, Rhys Griffiths and Rene Gilmartin are all still side-lined through injuries whilst the rest of the squad are all fit for selection for tomorrow games against Oxford United at the Kassam Stadium.  The one to watch out for in the Oxford’s squad is Jake Forster-Caskey the stepson of Nicky Forster currently manager of Dover Athletic.  Forster-Caskey is on loan from championship side Brighton & Hove Albion. 

Meanwhile Carl Fletchers first signing of the season from Woking, Paris Cowan-Hall will be looking for a starting 11 place after his impressive displays on the pitch after coming on during the second half of the games. Also looking to break into the starting 11 is Northern Ireland Striker Warren Feeney. 

Fletcher’s team will also be looking to improve on the pitch after a very poor performance on Tuesday Evening. The players were lucky to come away from Dagenham & Redbridge with a point.    
Manager Carl Fletcher and captain Darren Purse will be looking to lead the team onto a valuable 3points.
I’m sure there will be a few hundred more among the green army, cheering on the lads from the North stand in Oxfordshire as Argyle have sold out there limit of 500 tickets.  Green Army!
