Argyle draw Carlisle in Cup

ARGYLE have been drawn at home to Carlisle United in the first round of the FA Cup.

The tie will take place on the weekend of November 6/7/8.

Argyle have already met Carlisle this season at Home Park. The Pilgrims won 4-1 against the Cumbrians in the third league match of the season - it was Derek Adams' first home win as Argyle boss.

The two clubs have never previously...

Luton 1 Argyle 2: Match report

Never. Say. Die.

A goal in the last minute of added time from Ryan Brunt gave Argyle a hard-earned victory at Kenilworth Road and put then four points clear at the top of Sky Bet League 2.

The Pilgrims took the lead midway through a first half which they dominated when midfielder Carl McHugh nodded home Craig Tanner’s cross.

They were almost left to regret not...

Argyle 1 Accrington 0: Match report

A goal by Reuben Reid worthy of winning a match of much greater import than the battle between Sky Bet League 2’s in-form teams kept Argyle three points clear at the top of the division.

The Pilgrims needed an unbeatable combination of Reid’s skill; dogged determination in the face of talented and organised opposition; and sheer, naked good luck to record a fourth successive league...

Notts County 0 Argyle 2: Match report

IF Reuben Reid's two goals against Notts County were given pet names, they might be christened Smash and Grab.

Grab would be the opener that Reid scored in the first half, turning smartly from his marker and firing into the corner, whereas his brother Smash would be named aptly as it smashed the hopes of a County side that controlled large swathes of the game without being able to...

Plymouth Argyle 2 Exeter City 0: Match report

The good ship Pilgrim made rare progress into relatively uncharted waters as they won the 101st Devon Expressway Derby to advance into the area quarter-finals of the Johnstone’s Paint Trophy.

Young guns Hiram Boateng and man-of-the-match Craig Tanner scored goals worthy of Argyle’s landmark 5,000th first-team match to maintain the Pilgrims’ delightful start to life under Derek Adams...

Argyle 2 Crawley 1: Match report

ANOTHER game, another 2-1 win at Home Park - but this was a game quite unlike Argyle's earlier success at home this week.

After the stodgy display - but ultimate comeback success - against Barnet on Tuesday night yielded a 2-1 victory, as this game produced the same. But the performances were night and day.

Argyle toyed with a Crawley sided so desperately outclassed it...

Argyle v Rovers report

Argyle 1 Bristol Rovers 1 - Report

ARGYLE drew for the first time this season, frustratingly passing on the chance to head the embryonic Sky Bet League 2 table as a Westcountry derby of few goalscoring opportunities ended in high drama.

The Pilgrims found their neighbours stubborn opponents and could not break them down until five minutes from time, when Jake Jervis netted his...

Argyle on the march

ARGYLE recorded their fourth win from five away games this season - and exorcised a significant demon - with a battling win against a very good Wycombe side.

Some 121 days since a losing effort at Adams Park in the play-off semi final put an end to Argyle's 2014-15 season, the Pilgrims returned to win a fiercely contested game by the odd goal, in a match that was a credit to the...

Argyle 1 Newport County 0: Match report

A SUPER strike from Graham Carey was the slender difference on the score-sheet between Argyle and Newport, but the gulf in quality was vast.

The Pilgrims completely bossed proceedings from the outset, and had numerous chances to open the scoring before Carey did so as half-time approached.

The second half followed a similar pattern, and though a late County rally threatened to...
