I always felt it would come down to our home game against Hull. If HP can produce the same atmosphere as against Leicester we have a chance.

So often this season we have been out muscled and fought by physically stronger sides with Championship quality and nous, but Home Park is a hugely intimidating place.

The desire was in evidence again today but we have been lacking quality in depth all season.

But those that can get there next week need to be that twelfth man.

We can do this.

Disagree - it’s like dressing for the job you aspire to. If we’re going to become established as a Championship club we have to look like one. That attracts investment, sponsorship and better players.

It may be that we bounce around a bit in football terms but that is the route to sustainability at this level.
I do hope some of our posters aren't builders, the concept of foundations and solid footings seems alien to them.

My 2 centesimi worth after watching on Argyle TV:

I took my headphones off after about 5 minutes, awful commentary.

We were very very poor. Probably not a lack of bottle, but certainly a lack of effort. I saw a Millwall player busting a gut to stop the ball going out for a throw in with his side already winning. I didn't see that urgency with our team.

It is easy to blame Pleggy for the goal, but whose idea was it for him to mark the tallest bloke on the field? No leadership in the team.

I actually thought our passing was a bit better today, until we got anywhere near the Millwall goal. Dead ball delivery very poor. No imagination.

I didn't check any latest scores while watching our game, so was delighted to find out we still have it all to play for next week. And if we can't manage it, I just hope Norwich can instead!!

To be fair you do like a hissy fit when we lose but that’s your prerogative.

Personally I didn’t see a lack of fight other than from a couple of players at times. We aren’t Championship standard in the main and of those that are only Cooper has really performed in the last couple of games.

Still in our hands though - somehow.
I can take that frank

Am I alone in thinking that if we were to go down, weekends might actually improve next season. Are we prepared for another season of heartbreak and disappointment which must surely be our reward next season in the Championship for avoiding relegation this season. Am I being totally pessimistic or totally accurate as to our future. I, m not too sure that I can cope with another season like this season. A few comfortable home and away wins in League 1 as before and life feels a lot nicer. I think my wife will hopefully much prefer me then as well although that is definitely not guaranteed. Oh please Coygs!!.

Would you rather be a Birmingham supporter whose team is below the dotted line or an Argyle supporter whose team is above the dotted line with a 4 goal swing
Saturday is a one off game for both teams - which team will hold their nerve
Birmingham was probably thinking they would get a result today - they did not
We still hold the cards
Always rather be an Argyle fan but the dotted line is irrelevant tonight it's what happens at 3 pm Saturday or just before now this team doesn't look good enough doesn't look like scoring and if we stay ub it will be very very lucky albeit Birmingham do not deserve to stay up with the management treatment this season if we go down I blame the 3 points lost against Coventry in both game's

That guy commentating stresses me out. Like he's trying to be a grand national commentator but at football (in our group chat someone said he must be breathing through his ears to keep that up), and when he's not commentating on what is apparently horse racing, he was more interested in Parkway and how other games were going (and wrongly saying how they affected us).

For some reason it was Radio Devon's commentary & not Argyle TV commentary.

I’m fed up with my weekends being ruined, but I don’t really want my summer ruined either!

If you include the promotion and even the play-off attempt the previous season, it’s been constant stress… just seems tragic to go through all that and end up where we started.

If we hadn't let Brum get that last gasp winner against us at St Andrews, we would be safe tonight. So upsetting.

If we hadn't scored that last minute goal v Stoke, we would have been down I think, but you get the point.

Plus it was a brilliant goal and no fault of ours.

If I had a crystal ball and I could see the same chaos next season I would almost say, let's just go this season rather than be Rotherham next season.... But.... Who knows what happens in the summer if we stay up and another years money would be good before dropping next season if that were to be the case.

Just emotions riding high of course.

Go all out get a win next week. Job done. Simples.

Listen to me people. No time for crying over spilled milk! What has happened, has happened, we can't change it! We're stuck with way things are and there's nothing we can do about that!
We need to look on the bright side.
As someone already stated, we pretty just need to match or better Brum's final match result. May be not even that!
Even if we fail to get any points next week against Hull, there are still some positives.
West Brom by losing to Sheff Wed have opened the door to Hull to make the playoffs. If Hull win tonight, that puts pressure on Norwich to get a result against Brum in their last game of the season. That puts Brum in a potentially very difficult situation. Yes, Hull will be invigorated to get a result against Argyle, so be it. I really don't mind if Argyle and Brum both lose next week. If that's the case we stay up! In fact, if we lose and Brum draw their match with Norwich we stay up on goal difference (providing we don't do something silly and lose by at least 4 goals). So keep the faith, WE ARE NOT RELEGATED YET!!! COYG's!!! 💚💚💚
