I reckon the club have delayed the announcement to ensure Moley's hit rate is damaged.

Plymouth Argyle Transfer Rumour Round-up

To be fair, I’m pretty sure Whittaker’s name was being speculated about well before you ‘confirmed’ the deal. In fact, I remember speculation about us signing Whittaker 12 months ago, or at least discussion about whether we should. So I wasn’t especially impressed (
) when you gave the green light to this rumour as I reckon pretty much any of us could have done that and had a pretty good chance of being correct!
Jephcott is League two level. By posting this, you obviously think the rumour may actually have some credibility and that he could play in the Championship.
Where has all the common sense gone?🤦♂️
Each to rheir own opinion but I think he is much better than that. He has more than held his own at a young age in League 1 and continues to develop.
The facts prove that Jephcott has a good goal scoring ratio of minutes played to goals scored at League 1 level.
Common sense shows that he’s certainly done pretty decent at League 1 level - it’s just your opinion of Jephcott that he’s League 2 level, and I reckon you’re on your own with that one.
I agree JJ, opinions are like a*seholes…everyone has one.
Thing is though, has he really held his own in league one? Does he continue to develop? I would say ‘no’ on both.
The lucky run he had in front of goal dried up a long time ago and I would say his performances at the tail end of the season showed that he has most definitely not developed.
He will no longer feature in the National side and whereas he will most probably start the first few games, I don’t think it will be long before he starts to get a regular slot on the subs bench. Schuey will be loyal to him in the early part of the season but he isn’t stupid enough to continue flogging a dead horse.
He’s got 26 goals over two seasons in League One. If he’s not “holding his own” then the most of the other strikers in this division clearly aren’t good enough for League One either.
Ahh...I see where you're coming from.
You seem to think that as a striker all you have to do is score goals. You obviously don't think that there is more to the role.
Fair dues. If that is how you measure a player then I can see your point.
Not trolling at all. Just providing a different viewpoint.
Unlike a lot of people on here I do not get wrapped up in the emotion of the game and buy into the hype that the Club/players try to generate.
I simply look and listen and say things as I see them. The Club and the players just churn out what you want them to say and they say it in a way that means that they cannot be held accountable or responsible. The way that some fans interpret their words is quite mind boggling at times.
Dewsnip is a master at this way of communicating.
It’s not the assessment of his qualities I’m disputing it’s the comment that he is “not holding his own”. There are a lot of ways he can improve, no doubt, but his goal scoring record is proof he is “holding his own”.
If he was having no impact at all your comments may have some substance to them. But he score goals and gets assists which is the primary function of a forward player.
