which would suggest both Rak-Sakyi and Gordon will feature tomorrow evening.

Have a good time. I think we'll win so fingers crossed.

Red and Blue Army!

Argyle fan here

I write a piece on the Pasoti site for each game called One Game at a Time: You're Only Here for the Pasties

Last season was the first time I did the whole season and we were Champions so it means I have to do it again!

It is an unashamedly green tinted view of the world, looks at some historical stuff about the opponents and past matches , and is genuinely tongue in cheek rather than hostile....

It is also nice to have some fresh opponents to tuck into.....

Happy to correct any factual inaccuracies you may spot....I have enjoyed the digging around the Allison years....

We're a friendly lot on Pasoti, so happy to have visitors post and chat......

Safe travels to those coming down. FYI the reference to Lundon Cabbie is a well know Plymouth based Palace fan /regular poster on our site and quite possibly here, who slums it with us when he can't get to Palace....

Just leave Rak-Sakyi at home ....

All the best

Very good - quite amusing to be fair. Some good research although Millwall get far too much of a mention.

Alright my lover?!

Great posts - both here and on your own site.

I have a firm attachment to Argyle, as my mum was Plymouth born and bred. During school holidays, we came from Kent to stay with my grandma in Merrivale Road, and my dad took me to my first football match in August 1966 - a friendly at Home Park v Torquay United. Despite eventually adopting Palace, Plymouth has remained my '2nd team' and I look for news and results about them all the time.

Stays in Plymouth during the season inevitably meant further trips to Home Park, including the first game I was allowed to go to without a parent. This was an England U23 international against Bulgaria. The following day my mum, sister and I went to Plymouth station to catch the train to Newton Abbot and the whole England contingent was waiting on the platform for the train to London, including Alf Ramsey and all the players, many of whom were sitting on piles of baggage. I got loads of autographs but sadly not Norman Piper's!

You mentioned the Plymouth v Palace FA Cup tie in 1974, well although I couldn't get to that, I actually went to Argyle's match in the previous round, away to Dartford, which was a short bus ride from where I lived. A week prior to that had been the 3-3 Division 3 draw at Selhurst Park, where at half-time a group of Plymouth lads got onto the pitch at the Whitehorse Lane end and dribbled a plastic football the length of the pitch before 'scoring' in front of the Holmesdale, to almighty roars from the crowd. Sorry to remind you of it, but the return game at Home Park coincided with yet another family trip, so I was lucky to witness a surprise Palace victory, 1-0 with the Palace goal scored by Dave Swindlehurst aka 'The Problem'. Well it was a surprise to me anyway! I admit I had to stifle any thought of cheering, as I was standing with my dad on a 'home' terrace opposite the Mayflower Stand.

Good luck for Tuesday (but not too much!) but sincere best wishes for a good season in the Championship.

Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)

My wife is working until 6.30 so cannot come, so she will be looking after him but he will have to be alone for a couple of hours!
