What ‘unpopular opinion’ do you have?

[Duncanrice1]

Great idea for a topic! I always rated Mike Everitt, John Mitten (hard job to replace Jones /Jennings), and the the silky skills of Dave Burnside....

1. As much as I wanted him to come back at the time , I realise now with age and hindsight, that Paul Sturrock should have never returned. Definitely one of our most successful and popular managers but now with a tint of regret.

2. ‘The Central Element’ side of the Green Army is pure cringe.

Why is that an unpopular opinion? Surely everyone hates that bunch of amoeba-brained meatheads?

I was never a fan of Mickey Evans. I know about the hold up play and its importance to the team. However for me a forward needs to score goals.

This is the most shocking view point on this thread. CANCEL HIM!

It was only fair that Teddy Sheringham was allowed to retake his saved penalty against Argyle at Upton Park in 2005 as it was inconceivable that Luke McCormick could have saved it if he wasn't cheating.

Let's face it: green is an unlucky colour and that bright version can hurt your eyes.
Let's just bite the bullet and stick with our current shade of black!

What a great thread!

I was never comfortable with Luke McCormick coming back, and the Super Luke chants.

I don't enjoy badge kissing and other OTT and often insincere celebrations.

I find the business side of football clubs, and particularly Argyle, fascinating. Very different from most businesses.

Although his scoring rate just about matched that of Johnny Williams and he would have been the first name of my teamsheet I still think that David Norris didn't score enough goals.

Good thread... mine - I always rated Jon Sheffield as a keeper...

 

[Old Gunner]

One for IJN….I enjoy watching rugby as well as football

 

[Totnes Green]

I always thought Paul Wotton was very limited in skill. Hoofed or headed the ball upfield but never aimed at somebody. Great club man though.

 

[Green Painter]

I thought Peter Clarke looked a better defender than Wootton or Canavan and should have been given more game time

So here goes.
Tommy T wasn't my favourite player, I didn't really rate him. Nor Kevin Hodges (sorry)

I couldn't stand Ian Stonebridge in Green. What a waste of a shirt. Absolutely loved him when he scored the winner at Sid James.🤣🤣

I do like like the following managers and hold them in high regard=Ian Holloway for his football and how close he got us to the promise land . John Sheridan for saving us from.the conference and putting in the foundations that DA picked up.

I never liked DA or his tactics post the Liverpool game (sorry)

Paul Wotton was over rated. Trigger is a club legend

I have a lot of respect for Simon Walton and will always buy him a pint👍.

I blame Staplwallets for our demise. He was a bloody accountant😡

I detest goal celebration music.
I much prefer Tuesday night kick offs.
I don't agree with 'taking the knee'.
Paul Stapleton was a good chairman, apart from his decision to sell out to Kagami.
Paul Dalton was way better then Peter Halmosi.
I'm not interested in women's football whatsoever.
Bhasera was over-rated. League Two standard and no better.
James Brent set the club in the right direction, but had some ulterior motives as well.
I'd like to see Paul Sturrock offered a non-exec role on the board.
I don't like the way the club treated legend Kevin Hodges. He was dealt a bad hand as a manager too.
Prefer sitting down to standing up.
I think the Argyle website looks a mess.
Sturrock did well in his second spell- especially considering the young talent he discovered.

Sorry meant Peter Grant!
