I agree with others that playing two wingers seems to be exposing Demi and (more alarmingly) Hendrie. I'd possibly have JW at right back, Timlin on the left of midfield to help Hendrie and Kightley on the right.

Plymouth have quite a substantial London-based section of the Green Army which usually boosts their away turnout for southern fixtures.
just under 8,000 for this game, can't wait:thumbsup:
I floated out of Roots Hall after the Blackburn game. It's incredible how things can change in a week. After the last two performances am dreading saturday!

Always been a well supported club.Should of course be playing a division higher (just like us).
Mike Bickle and John Hore always gave Fulham big problems.
Would not surprise me if Plymouth brought around 1500 odd. They have a large London fanbase and took 1300 to Peterborough.
As for the game. It isn't a mist win but the players need a big performance. The fans needs to get behind them from the beginning to the end. Really encourage them and get them fired right up. This isn't a bad side but until we get all of our players fit it's a makeshift side with brittle confidence.
Plymouth aren't worldbeaters. They are on a high following promotion and rightly so.
This side are more than capable of playing their way up the table.
Normally am so excited about going to matches but admit to being concerned about how we react. Last two games have shown how weak our squad is and personally I am struggling to get my head around the amount of wages ties up with Ferdinand and Turner - both good players but both are on the slide and wonder how many games Turner will even play for us. Can't help feeling the wages could have been better spent.
However will be there on Saturday giving my full support and come home with a sore throat and hopefully a smile.
The sad truth is that if Ferdinand is selected and, for whatever reason, plays in the same manner that he did last week we are very likely to concede a number of goals.
He obviously looked uncomfortable at Rotherham.Have you heard anything?
Not heard anything but it was certainly a bizarre performance from Ferdinand.
My immediate post match reaction was that he didn't give a ****.
If selected, I guess we will find out tomorrow as they have 2 very big forwards.
Perhaps he is injured. If so it would be sensible to replace him with Kiernan.
Oh maybe his head was slightly off for one day. His mum did pass away a few weeks ago afterall!
Not one person has mentioned this as a reason. Fans just seem to assume that footballers are robots and just get on with the job in hand and nothing else matters. Anton may say he is fine to play, but you can't control what your subconscious is doing. It can really affect what you do and how you do it.
I'm not saying it's definitely the reason but it could be.
