  • Underground Overground Wombles 1-3
    Apr 18 2026

    Archie and Tom are joined by pod debutant Graham Clark to discuss Wimbledon 1 - Argyle 3 - a game that had it all. A barnstorming start with Argyle taking an early lead, a wobble, and then substitutions that worked in Argyle’s favour for once. The tide turned, and it ended up being a very convincing win.


    The joy doesn’t stop there, as the trio look around at other results on the day, all going in Argyle’s favour and giving those play-off hopes another boost — if not fully reignited, then certainly fuelled further.


    In Part Two, there’s an update on the women’s team, including a look back at that huge Real Bedford win, which may have helped secure second spot.


    There’s also a discussion around the redundancies that drew so much attention during the week, with around 20 members of staff let go, including Charlie Rose. The group discuss the communication around it, the perceived lack of clarity, and the wider financial state of the club and the football landscape.


    Things end on a lighter note as they look ahead to the play-off picture, the final three games, and what could be a huge six-pointer away at Bradford in midweek.

  • Gone with the Wind
    Apr 12 2026

    So, twenty-four hours on and time to review the ultimate draw that felt like a defeat. Against the old enemy. How can an equaliser in injury time feel so flat? Archie is joined by Alex, Chris and Mark to get into it.


    Let’s start with the weather. Did anyone mention it was windy? A first half of minimal football, maximum chaos saw Argyle slowly grow into the game creating the better chances. One great save and some half chances but at half time, Argyle had slightly the better of a messy 45 minutes. A random ball off the bar and then, sadly, the one piece of actual football, 0-1 down and everyone condemned to 30 minutes of pointless horrible Octoberball. Then a crazy last 15 minutes with an equaliser, a soft goal, another equaliser and a 2-2 draw that really didn’t suit either team. But a late Exeter chance to put the game to bed probably means the impact on the season could be greater for them. Ha.


    Everyone takes a breath for Part 2. A quick look at the end of the season for Argyle Women, a review of the upcoming player of the season vote, some ecumenical debate (yes, really) and a look forward to Wimbledon and the final four games of the season. It’s the season effectively over or could there be a miracle? Perhaps the monks from The Dripping Pan can give us a sign?


    Prayers welcome.

  • Tyke a Bow
    Apr 7 2026

    Bank holiday football in the sunshine and Chris and Mark have ducked out of work and Easter holiday family obligations to review a near perfect afternoon in South Yorkshire.


    Drama and doom set the pre-match tone with two enforced changes - a calf injury for Bim Pepple and Herbie Kane out for the season and back in Huddersfield to recover. At least he could travel up on the team bus, FFS FML.


    An even start with Argyle slowly growing into the game, rewarded with a fantastic goal close to the half way point (would have been eyeing up a drinks break in the World Cup, FFS FML). A long lost cause turned into a clear cut chance from the quality of Tolaj and a calm finish from DoubleO-Seni, probably deserved on the balance of play. The rest of the half a little messy, Barnsley on top but Argyle going close on the counter just before half time. Other results not looking too bad at this stage either…


    A slow start to the second half interrupted by the predictable ‘injury’ to Hazard. Boos from the home crowd and fear of karma, a sense that this doesn’t really work anywaYESSSSS! 2-0, AND a push in the back in the run up. Screw you, honesty gods. From there, Argyle rarely looked threatened by a Barnsley team reading from the Greens October 2025 playbook, with intricate play leading to next to nowhere. An Oseni penalty towards the end and a 3-0 away win was thoroughly deserved.


    No part 2 today but an inevitable look forward (again) to a huge Devon Derby with them up the road finally winning after a quarter season drought. Typical timing? Or a pub team (h/t Archie Scrase) you have to demolish if you have any ambition of success. Other results stayed could be better, could be worse.


    Don’t stop believing just yet, Greens.
