On This Day:

Also included on the three most recent days, facts from Argyle's history.

Friday 11th September 2026

On This Day:

1920: Argyle's first Football League victory, Argyle 5 Newport County 1

1973: One of those games that sticks in the memory. After a poor start to the season, Tony Waiters threw in three youngsters for an evening game at Home Park: Alan Rogers, Brian Johnson and a lad from Chorley. The result: Argyle 5 Rochdale 0; Paul Mariner scored twice on his debut.

10th

On This Day:

1965: Mick Heathcote was born in Kelloe, County Durham, so 61 today. Signed from Cambridge Utd, 'Hector' captained the Pilgrims for the second half of the nineties and, in 1996, became the only Argyle player in history to lift a trophy at the top of the famous Wembley steps.

9th

On This Day:

1995: In his second month in charge, Neil Warnock managed his first home point to lift the Pilgrims off the bottom of the basement division. Argyle, of course, went on to win promotion at Wembley that season.

7th

Tegan Finn and Caleb Roberts have gone on loan to Torquay United. Caleb's loan is until January; Tegan's for one month, but with the possibility of an extension.

A bolstered Argyle Under-18s side were defeated 3-2 by Cardiff City Under-21s in the Premier League Cup, at Home Park.

Owen Oseni gave the Greens a 1-0 lead, before goals from Isaac Davies, Troy Perrett and Jake Davies sealed the win for the visitors. Tashall Sandhu netted a late consolation goal in eight minutes of added time to make it 3-2.

The youthful Argyle outfit which included Joe Edwards and Owen Oseni, gave a good showing, particularly in the early stages, but the Professional Development League side proved too strong.

Argyle: 1 Tom Armytage, 2 Joe Mwaro (capt), 3 Jared Rendle (15 Dylan Williams, 89), 6 Joel Tolcher, 7 Tashall Sandhu, 8 Joe Edwards (17 Jovan Wamani, 45), 18 Owen Oseni (11 Frankie Maund, 45), 25 Freddie Issaka (26 Billy Devlin, 66), 38 Seb Campbell, 39 Sam Hayman, 44 James Sharpe (30 Harry Locke, 89). Substitutes: 41 Leo McCormick (gk), 29 Toby Maclean.

Goals: Oseni 43, Sandhu 90+8

Bim Pepple has spoken of the 'great understanding' he has with team-mate Caleb Watts, whose assist led to him (Pepple) scoring against Doncaster Rovers. Substitute Watts was unplayable and also scored Argyle's decisive goal.

Speaking to Plymouth Live, Pepple said: "He has got me a lot of goals that people don't see. Maybe he hasn't actually touched the ball but his movement has freed me up.

"We all know what Caleb brings - goals and assists. I think at Leicester he could have got a couple but he was in the right positions.

"Today, a goal and an assist in 30 minutes, that's what he brings. I think for him it's just about staying fit, which he's on top of it. We know we have a great player on our hands."

6th

Tom Cleverley credited the substitutes as the reason for Argyle's League One win at Doncaster Rovers yesterday.

"...t could have been 4- or 5-1 - and probably should have been,” he said “We're disappointed to concede a soft goal towards the end, but I'm thrilled with the result.

“The mentality to suffer Tuesday's setback, which was a big opportunity missed, and then to come back from an in-game setback, ultimately with the substitutes winning us the game today and their impact, is really pleasing, because the mentality of the players was strong.

“The fixture list has been tough. [including] three away games, playing four teams who were all expected to be top six... “We played the squad with the highest value budget, the early favourites, in the week and a tough place to go. If we knew how the game was going to go and realised we lost that game, we'd be frustrated, which we are and I think we showed a little bit of that today.

“We won't now take our foot off the gas. I have to drive that Barnsley will come to us next week wanting to respond from a poor result today.”

Argyle Women went down 2-0 to Bridgwater United away in their second group game of the FA Women’s National League Cup.

Argyle fell behind inside the opening minute before Bridgwater doubled their advantage in first half stoppage time, and after that the Greens were unable to find a way through a resilient defence.

Argyle: Liv Giles, Aliyat Lambe, Ellie M Bishop (Ciara Magee h/t), Laura Curnock, Shana Dolbel, Kiesha Walker, Sienna Gilbert, Kennedy Garside (Lily Coaker 62 mins), Farrah Ambrose, Chloe Ingrouille (Phoebe Bettey 79 mins), Khloe Reed.

5th

Argyle bounced back from their disappointing setback in the Midlands with a 'pivotal' 3-2 victory in South Yorkshire against winless Doncaster Rovers, the scoreline somewhat flattering the home side. Argyle goals came from Will Evans, Bim Pepple and, Player of the Match, substitute Caleb Watts. Watts, who came on for Oliver Irow in the 63rd minute, cut through the opposition at will both scoring and making the assist for Pepple's goal. In fact, it was the Cleverley's inspired substitutions that changed the game. For the Rovers, Alfie May scored from the spot after a foul by Sorinola and from a consolation header in extra time.

Argyle: 1 Murphy Cooper, 5 Julio Pleguezuelo, 7 Harvey White, 9 Will Evans (2 Mathias Ross, 82), 11 Ronan Curtis (18 Owen Oseni, 72), 14 Oliver Irow (17 Caleb Watts, 63), 15 Alex Mitchell, 19 Tyreeq Bakinson (23 Bradley Ibrahim, 72), 27 Bim Pepple, 29 Matty Sorinola (22 Alex Hartridge, 82), 45 Wes Harding (capt). Substitutes: 21 James Storer, 8 Joe Edwards.

Goals: Evans 28, Pepple 74, Watts, 83

4th

Happy Birthday to Argyle owner and chairman, Simon Hallett.

Tom Cleverley has said that Owen Oseni is fit to be included in the squad for the match at Doncaster Rovers tomorrow, but Jack MacKenzie has suffered 'a small setback'. Meanwhile, Malachi Boateng is recovering from his injury more quickly than expected.

3rd

Tom Cleverley said he was not going to 'beat about the bush' in declaring that Argyle fell short of the high standards expected of them in their 2-0 defeat at Leicester last night.

Speaking to Plymouth Live, he said: "I think it's a huge opportunity missed.

"We are coming to a side who are still finding their feet, who at times this evening looked scintillating but we turned the ball over five times in their box first half and didn't come out with a real clear cut chance.

"We were never going to come here and dominate possession. I don't think anyone will, barring Stockport maybe.

"Our game plan was to have a well-structured press, to turn the ball over high and then to transition. The transition part needs work.

"Time that we have not got on the training pitch but when we do get that time it needs a lot of work.

He added: "I thought for a big chunk of the middle of the game we lost a bit of confidence, personality and courage, and you see a much poorer version of ourselves.

"I need to instal that back into the players. We have had two really tough away games in Wycombe and Leicester. We have lost our way a little bit in both.

"We need to get back to what we are, and having no fear. So improve the players' mentality as well as technically we need to do some work on the training pitch."

2nd

Former Argyle favourite, Morgan Whittaker, is reported to be leaving Middlesbrough for the USA and MLS side Colorado Rapids for a fee said to be the equivalent of £7.9m of which Argyle should be due some percentage.

1st

As the Argyle team and 1600+ Green Army head to the King Power stadium for this evening's League One fixture against Leicester City, Tom Cleverley has said that no more ins and outs are expected on the last day of the current transfer window.

Argyle succumbed to two somewhat unnecessary killer-punch goals just before half time as they fell to defeat by a poor Leicester side which contained former Pilgrim, Bobby (De Cordova) Reid. The match had barely begun when, after a clash, the Foxes' 'keeper Jakub Stolarczyk had to be stretchered off, necessitating a lengthy stoppage and time added on. The Greens started with a high press and had several chances to score then, and again towards the end of the second half - by which time the damage was done. Fifteen hundred Greens went home disappointed and somewhat frustrated at their side's inconsistency.

Argyle: 1 Murphy Cooper, 5 Julio Pleguezuelo (27 Bim Pepple, 61'), 7 Harvey White, 9 Will Evans, 10 Xavier Amaechi (14 Oliver Irow, 46'), 11 Ronan Curtis (29 Matty Sorinola, 46'), 15 Alex Mitchell, 19 Tyreeq Bakinson, 22 Alex Hartridge, 23 Bradley Ibrahim (17 Caleb Watts, 70'), 45 Wes Harding (capt). Substitutes: 21 James Storer (gk), 2 Mathias Ross, 8 Joe Edwards,

Yellow Cards: Xavier Amaechi 38

30th August

Argyle Women fell to an away 5-0 defeat against Fulham Ladies in the Women's National League, all the goals coming in the first half. Argyle were stronger in the second period, but could not make it show.

Head Coach Matt Green said: ”The character and resilience that the group showed in the second half, after going in at the break five down, was fantastic. Their workrate out of possession throughout the 90 minutes was really good. We are looking to take positives from every game we play, and there were definitely positives from a resolute second-half performance.

“We were obviously disappointed to go in 5-0 down; we made a few mistakes. However, we are learning, developing every single week, every single day. And that will take time.”

Argyle: 1 Olivia Giles, 4 Aliyat Lambe, 5 Ellie M Bishop (18 Farrah Ambrose, 59), 9 Laura Curnock, 14 Shana Dolbel, 15 Kiesha Walker, 16 Sienna Gilbert, 17 Kennedy Garside, 21 Chloe Ingrouille (23 Phoebe Bettey, 77), 24 Ellie J Bishop (26 Mia Burrows, 82), 25 Khloe Reed. Substitutes: 29 Aimee Walters.

29th

Argyle knocked League One leaders, Bradford City, off the top spot with an assured and convincing 2-0 victory at Home Park. Goals came from in the first half from Julio Pleguezuelo from inside the box and Harvey White in the second with a 20+ yard screamer.

Tom Cleverley thought it was a 'complete performance' and his side's best game of the season so far.

Speaking to Plymouth Live, he said: "It was about as complete as you can get. Football is about what you do in two directions, not only what you do in an attacking perspective but from a defensive one as well.

To reduce a top, effective side like Bradford to four shots, no shots on target, I'm so so proud. It''s something we have got to take forward with us."

Argyle: 1 Murphy Cooper, 5 Julio Pleguezuelo, 7 Harvey White, 9 Will Evans, 11 Ronan Curtis (17 Caleb Watts, 90+2), 14 Oliver Irow (10 Xavier Amaechi, 70), 15 Alex Mitchell, 19 Tyreeq Bakinson, 22 Alex Hartridge, 27 Bim Pepple (23 Bradley Ibrahim, 84), 45 Wes Harding (capt). Substitutes: 21 James Storer (gk), 8 Joe Edwards, 26 Tegan Finn, 29 Matty Sorinola.

Player of the match - Tyreeq Bakinson

The Under-18s earned a hard-fought 1-0 away victory against Bristol City in their opening PDL Cup group-stage game.

Sam Hayman’s second-half goal proved the difference between Argyle and their higher-category opposition. Thomas Armytage, newly returned from his time with the England Under-16s squad, took the place of Leo McCormick in goal, the latter having been seconded to Plymouth Parkway.

Head Coach, Jamie Lowry was extremely proud of his side's excellent performance:

“The boys showed a great response after Tuesday; I thought it was a complete performance. Maybe we lacked a little bit in the final third, I thought we could have had a couple more.

“Our general build-up play was brilliant, the boys had great shape with our out-of-possession stuff, we were really difficult to break down.

“I’m really pleased with some great performances; it was a great way to respond to a disappointing result on Tuesday against a very strong Bristol City side."

Argyle: 1 Thomas Armytage, 2 Jovan Wamani, 3 Jared Rendle, 4 Joel Tolcher, 5 Sam Hayman (capt), 6 Dylan Williams, 7 Tashall Sandhu, 8 Seb Campbell, 9 Frankie Maund, 10 James Sharpe, 11 Marley-Blu Francis. Substitutes: 23 Charlie Pawley (gk), 12 Corey Browne, 14 Billy Devlin, 15 Harry Locke, 16 Emran Boudarga-Wischhoff.

Goals: Hayman 51

Booked: Rendle 57, Hayman 90

28th

Akos Buzsaky has posted a message to assure those concerned about him that he is okay.

"Unfortunately, in the last few months, there have been serious changes in my life that have tested me.

"There came a moment when I felt I had to break away from these daily routines."

He went on to say that his mother had contacted the police after a "misunderstanding".

Buzsaky added: "A soon as I learned about the situation, I stopped my retreat and informed the authorities.

"Thank you very much for all the concern and thoughts you have shown me.

"I wish everyone a nice day, and it felt really good to receive so much love!"

Academy goalkeeper, Leo McCormick, son of Luke, has joined Plymouth Parkway on a short-term work experience loan.

27th

Senior Greens held their monthly meeting in Club Argyle. The speaker, who stepped in at short notice, was Matt Girdler, Head of Football Data who spoke interestingly and answered questions about the role and importance of data in recruitment and squad improvement.

An update on missing Akos Buzsaky. His formal colleague at Argyle, Hasney Aljofree, has posted that he is 'alright' and thanks everyone for their support.

26th

Tom Cleverley saw 'plenty of positives' in Argyle's EFL Cup defeat by Coventry City.

“The main thing we were trying to get out of tonight is to lose that little bit of tension that we've shown with the ball in the first two league games,” said Tom. “Take the handbrake off a little bit, free ourselves up. I was really pleased with how the players did that.

"It’s never easy going 2-0 down, to such a high-class opposition, so early. We could have gone into our shell, and that tension could have grown and looked even worse. But the character, the ability, the mindset that we have to take into Saturday was there for all to see. We made it a competitive game of football. We gave as good as we got for 80 minutes against high-level opposition and I'm really proud of the players.

“I think the new guys brought a lot to that this evening. They showed no fear, grabbed the game by the scruff of the neck and really added to a performance that there was a lot of positives in."

He added that he now had some selection headaches for the weekend's home League One fixture against Bradford City.

"Leading into Saturday, I have got headaches. A lot of players made my picking the team decisions tough, which is a healthy place to be.

"We have lost a game tonight, which we never want to do, but I think we are in a better place for it."

Tom Cleverley has confirmed that midfielder, Malachi Boateng, is likely to be out of action for six-eight weeks with a knee ligament injury. This 'could have been a lot worse' according to Argyle's Head Coach.

Former Argyle midfielder and fans' favourite, Ákos Buzsáky, has been reported missing in his native Hungary. Police are looking for the 44-year-old who hasn't been seen for more than a week

Hungarian International, Akos played in Green between the 2004-5 and 2007-8 seasons, when he was then loaned and later transferred to Queens Park Rangers. In 2013, he said that he would love to play for the Pilgrims again, but 'now was not the right time'.

Argyle Women came back strongly from a 0-1 half time deficit to beat Marine Academy, Plymouth 2-1 in the FAWNL Cup. Goals from Shana Dobel and Khloe Reed saw the Greens through to victory at Ivybridge Town's ground.

Head Coach, Matt Green, said: "I'm delighted for the girls because the amount of work they put in, I don't think people realise. They're a young team, to get their first win is massive for them as a group."

Argyle: 1 Olivia Giles, 4 Aliyat Lambe, 9 Laura Curnock, 14 Shana Dolbel, 15 Kiesha Walker, 16 Sienna Gilbert, 18 Farrah Ambrose, 20 Ciara Magee, 21 Chloe Ingrouille (17 Kennedy Garside, 81), 24 Ellie J Bishop, 25 Khloe Reed. Substitutes: 23 Phoebe Bettey, 26 Mia Burrows, 30 Lily Coaker.

Goals: Dolbel 72, Reed, 76

25th

Argyle exited the EFL (Carabao) Cup in the second round in a lively encounter with newly promoted Premier League side, Coventry City, at Home Park.

Despite being two goals down within the first five minutes, the Greens fought back to 2-2 with impressive solo goals from new recruit, Oliver Irow, and Xavier Amaechi. However, they could not hold on, with the Sky Blues netting twice on 67 and 78 minutes - the second a penalty conceded by newly returned Joe Edwards. Argyle were themselves denied a penalty when Bim Pepple was brought down in the area, but the referee waved the claim away.

Both Irow (on loan from Spurs) and Tyreeq Bakinson - newly returned on loan from Leyton Orient - gave excellent accounts of themselves, but the night belonged to 17-year-old Academy product, Joe Mwaro. Playing in defence on both right and left, the teenager was awarded the player of the match accolade.

Argyle: 21 Jimmy Storer, 2 Mathias Ross, 7 Harvey White (24 Caleb Roberts, 59), 9 Will Evans (27 Bim Pepple, 59), 14 Oliver Irow (26 Tegan Finn, 59), 17 Caleb Watts (10 Xavier Amaechi, half-time), 19 Tyreeq Bakinson (8 Joe Edwards, 74), 23 Bradley Ibrahim, 29 Matty Sorinola, 40 Joe Mwaro, 45 Wes Harding (capt). Substitutes: 1 Murphy Cooper (gk), 5 Julio Pleguezuelo, 11 Ronan Curtis, 22 Alex Hartridge.

Goals: Irow 21, Amaechi 54

Booked: Amaechi 62

Attendance: 14,210 (2,244 away)

The Under-18s also fell to a Cup defeat, losing to Devon rivals, Exeter City in their opening Youth Alliance Cup group-stage game, against Exeter City.

The Grecians took an early lead through Joe Newport, before Argyle levelled from the penalty spot, Seb Campbell dispatching well on 79 minutes.

With just minutes left on the clock, Exeter won it, scoring a penalty of their own. Louie Cayless fired in to ensure victory for his side.

Head Coach, Jamie Lowry, was disappointed with both the result and the performance.

“After we started the season so well and did the basics so well, we didn’t today.

“It felt like they wanted to win the game more than we did. They had a little bit more fight about them, they ran little bit harder than us, they were more competitive which is really disappointing.

“We didn’t look after the ball well enough to have a sustained amount of pressure and create more chances. It gave them momentum and incentive when they’d go and press us.

“Overall, I’m really disappointed with the performance compared to where we have set our standards at the start of the season.”

Argyle: 23 Leo McCormick, 2 Jovan Wamani (12 Dylan Williams, 53), 3 Jared Rendle, 4 Joel Tolcher, 5 Sam Hayman (capt), 6 Corey Browne (14 Billy Devlin, 70), 7 Tashall Sandhu, 9 Emran Boudarga-Wischhoff (16 Frankie Maund, 58), 10 James Sharpe, 11 Harry Locke (15 Marley-Blu Francis, 53), 18 Seb Campbell. Substitutes: 1 Charlie Pawley (gk).

24th

In the wake of the departure of Brendan Wiredu, and the significant injury to Malachi Boateng, Argyle have brought in two loan players.

Midfielder Tyreeq Bakinson, has joined the Pilgrims for the second time. The 27-year-old has come from Leyton Orient, six years after his previous loan spell with the Greens which was curtailed by Covid.

Bakinson began his career with Luton Town, but moved to Bristol City aged 18, spending five years at Ashton Gate. During that time, he had loans with Newport County, Ipswich Town and, between those stints, Argyle.

"Tyreeq can do a bit of everything in the midfield," said Tom Cleverley. "He is tall, physical, reads the game well and is clean on the ball. I'm looking forward to working with him."

Director of Football Derek Adams added: "It's pleasing that we have been able to act quickly after Brendan Wiredu leaving the football club. Tyreeq has a lot of experience at this level, has been a League One promotion winner, and at 27 is a good age for a midfielder. I am looking forward to seeing him in green and white."

Tyreeq will wear the no. 19 shirt.

On the same evening, Argyle secured the services of Tottenham Hotspur young winger, Oliver Irow, for the season. The 20-year-old England youth international can play wide or upfront.

In January 2026, Irow joined Mansfield Town, for whom he played 18 games, scoring four times, including twice on his debut, in a 3-0 win in which Will Evans scored the other goal.

"I'm very please Oli is joining us," said Head Coach Tom Cleverley. "He is a young winger who likes to be direct. He can play off the left, or the right, and down the middle as well, so he is versatile and gives us options. I'm looking forward to working with him."

Director of Football Derek Adams added: "Oliver had a productive spell at Mansfield last season, and comes to us for a second loan, in which we think we can develop his game ever further. He has a willingness to learn, and his quality and versatility should make him a really good signing for us."

Oliver will wear the no. 14 shirt.

Babcock International Group has extended its partnership with Argyle for a further three years, reinforcing the long-standing relationship between two organisations at the heart of the city.

As two of Plymouth's most recognisable and historic institutions, the renewed commitment from Babcock and Argyle reflects a shared determination to make a positive contribution to Plymouth, its people, and the wider South West.

Babcock's branding will appear on the back of the shirts for the Argyle women's team, while the company will also become headline sponsor of the club's Foulston Park Performance Centre, which will be renamed the 'Babcock High-Performance Centre.' This builds on its continued sponsorship of the Babcock Devonport End at Home Park.

23rd

Argyle are expecting to reveal two new signings tomorrow, one of whom is thought to be former loanee, Tyreeq Bakinson, currently at Leyton Orient. According to Alan Nixon, the other could be winger, Oliver Irow, from Tottenham, who was on loan at Mansfield Town in the second half of last season.

Argyle Women crashed to a 0-6 home defeat against AFC Wimbledon Ladies at Home Park. They nearly scored from the kick off but were never able to gain momentum and were four goals down by half time.

I'm obviously disappointed with the result," said Head Coach Matt Green. "Wimbledon are a physical side, we knew that, with pace and power on the top line.

"I can't really fault the effort of our team, but it highlights where we are in our development in this league. This is a high level. Our hard work will continue, and we have a game on Wednesday against MAP, in the League Cup. It's an opportunity to look to bounce back, in another game, on another day."

Argyle: 1 Olivia Giles, 4 Aliyat Lambe, 5 Ellie M Bishop (capt, 26 Mia Burrows, 78), 9 Laura Curnock (30 Lily Coaker, 89), 14 Shana Dolbel, 15 Kiesha Walker, 16 Sienna Gilbert (17 Kennedy Garside, 62), 18 Farrah Ambrose, 21 Chloe Ingrouille, 24 Ellie J Bishop (20 Ciara Magee, 58), 25 Khloe Reed (23 Phoebe Bettey, 83).

22nd

Argyle picked up their first point of the 2026-27 League One season with a 1-1 away draw with Wycombe Wanderers. New no 9 signing, Will Evans, scored his first goal for the club. Argyle, the better side in the first half, led at the interval, but were unable to hold on to their advantage and tired towards the end. Wycombe equalised with a header following a fee kick conceded by Argyle captain, Wes Harding.

Argyle had to face former 'keeper, Conor Hazard, who now plays in goal for the Chairboys. He was given a mixed reception when he took his place in front of the Green Army at the start of the first period.

The game was marred by a significant ligament injury to midfield general, Malachi Boateng, who was playing his 48th consecutive start for the Greens.

Tom Cleverley felt that his side should have been awarded both a second goal, when Evans had the ball in the net but was declared offside, and a penalty should have been given in a goalmouth scramble in which Bradley Ibrahim received a high challenge.

ARGYLE: Murphy Cooper; Wes Harding, Mathias Ross, Julio Pleguezuelo (Alex Mitchell 70 mins), Alex Hartridge; Xavier Amaechi (Caleb Watts 64 mins), Malachi Boateng (Bradley Ibrahim 8 mins), Harvey White, Ronan Curtis; Harvey Evans, Bim Pepple.

Substitutes (not used): James Storer, Caleb Roberts, Tegan Finn, Matty Sorinola

Attendance: 6,561 - 1,539 Green Army

Cleverley also hinted that two new signings were expected on Monday, after medicals had been held in the Wycombe area last night.

The Under-18s beat Portsmouth 4-2 at Millenium Fields to make it three unbeaten at the start of their Youth Alliance League campaign.

Frankie Maund stole the show, netting a spectacular first-half hat trick. Pompey fought back and closed the gap with Elisha Pfupa scoring twice in the second period. The Greens cliched it in second-half stoppage time, Emran Boudarga-Whischhoff netting his first of the season to ensure victory for the young Pilgrims.

Head Coach, Jamie Lowry, was pleased with the performance but disappointed that Portsmouth came back into the game.

He said: "The performance was really good. We grew into the game and competed really well.

"Portsmouth are a strong outfit and will be competitive this year. We duelled really well and did the basics that we keep talking about.

"We've got real quality, obviously three fantastic goals from Frankie, one of the best hat-tricks I've ever seen.

"In the second half I was disappointed to concede, both in transition and on the counter-attack. We turned the ball over too easily and then were not secure enough out of possession to stop the break.

"Credit to the lads, though, they defended well and put a real shift in to make sure Portsmouth didn't equalise.

"Overall, I'm really pleased with another good performance against a really strong side, keeping on building confidence for the boys."

Today would have been the 100th birthday of former Club Secretary, Graham Little, who served Argyle for 25 years between 1965 and 1991.

21st

Tom Cleverly gave an update on injured players at his Friday press conference:

*Caleb Watts will be back in the squad for Saturday

*Jack MacKenzie is close and should be available to select against Bradford

*Oseni and Issaka are probably another week out

*Argyle will manage Mitch's loads in the next few weeks as he had a little knee tendon flare-up.

Midfielder, Brendan Wiredu, has left Argyle to join League Two Salford for an undisclosed fee (thought to be in the region of £300,000).

20th

Tom Cleverley issued a 'keep calm, no panic' message, as Argyle aim to bounce back from their comprehensive 3-1 defeat by Stockport County at their Home Park opener, with an improved performance against Wycombe Wanderers at Adams Park on Saturday..

Cleverley said: "You probably prefer to get straight back into another game after a defeat but there are clearly things we needed to work on as a group, which we have done.

"I have had some good quality time with the players on the training pitch which always helps, and hopefully we see that come out on Saturday."

18th

Argyle Women's season tickets are going on sale. The price is �50 for adults, with under-14s and Evergreen members going free.

Each match ticket, if bought separately, will cost £5 - again free for under-14s who must be accompanied in the stadium by an adult.

The Under-18s scored a convincing 4-0 away win against Stevenage in the EFL Youth Alliance South Division. Goals came from Frankie Maund (2), Tegan Finn, and Seb Campbell from the penalty spot.

17th

Argyle Under-18s fell to defeat in their Premier League Under-21 Cup opener against Leicester City.

Caleb Roberts netted the game's opener before Hugo De Lisle and Michael Golding both scored at the end of the first half to flip the game on its head.

Despite a valiant second-half effort, Sam Hayman's own goal put the game beyond doubt on 67 minutes.

Speaking after the game, Head Coach, Jamie Lowry, expressed his pleasure with his side's performance, despite the result.

He said: "I thought the lads were outstanding, I couldn't fault their attitude or application.

"It was great to take the lead and have something to build on but obviously they're a very good side, a lot older and a lot more experienced than us.

"The whole point of being in that competition... is to test ourselves against better and older players, so a lot of learning opportunities came from the game.

"Overall, I'm really proud of the boys, I thought every single one of them had a magnificent game."

Argyle: 23 Leo McCormick, 2 Jovan Wamani, 3 Jared Rendle, 4 Joel Tolcher, 5 Sam Hayman, 6 Joe Mwaro (capt), 7 Tashall Sandhu, 8 Caleb Roberts (16 Emran Boudarga-Wischhoff, 72), 9 James Sharpe (12 Corey Browne, 90), 10 Seb Campbell (14 Dylan Williams, 90), 11 Frankie Maund (15 Harry Locke, 68).

All three Argyle sides in action today had disappointing starts to their season.

On Saturday afternoon, the men's first team went down to a 1-3 loss at Home Park against last year's League One third place team and play-off runners-up, Stockport County. The Hatters were just too strong for the Greens in all areas of the field and raced into a 3-0 lead shortly into the second half. Substitute, Xavier Amaechi, pulled one back for Argyle on 78 minutes but they could not capitalise on a late push.

Argyle: 1 Murphy Cooper, 2 Mathias Ross, 6 Malachi Boateng, 7 Harvey White (4 Brendan Wiredu, 89), 9 Will Evans (23 Bradley Ibrahim, 65), 11 Ronan Curtis, 15 Alex Mitchell (5 Julio Pleguezuelo, half-time), 22 Alex Hartridge, 27 Bim Pepple, 29 Matty Sorinola (10 Xavier Amaechi, 57), 45 Wes Harding (capt). Substitutes: 21 James Storer (gk), 8 Joe Edwards, 26 Tegan Finn.
