AS has been pointed out before this week, Carlisle is a lot nearer Ross County than Plymouth, so there was something poetic that three former Staggies were to the fore of Argyle’s ultimately emphatic opening home victory of the 2015-16 campaign.
Their first goal, which came just before half-time when Argyle were decidedly second best in the game, was scored by Jake Jervis on his return...
SHOTS from a combined 24 yards were enough for Portsmouth to record victory over Argyle - but the promotion favourites had to survive a late Pilgrims fightback to record their win.
Matt Tubbs scored from the penalty spot right on half time, and late in the second half Gary Roberts also slotted home a spot kick to give Pompey a two-goal cushion, but a late cracker by Gregg Wylde briefly...
Back in March young footballers in the Devon Junior and Minor League were invited to raise funds for Brain Tumour Research, with the team which raised the most wining a new football strip for one of their teams.
Three months on, and the winning team has been revealed – none other than the budding Beckhams of Roborough Youth FC.
The club successfully raised £210 for Brain Tumour...

Bob says 'Every little thing gonna be alright.' Doris says 'Whatever will be, will be.'
Both noble mantras, but ultimately Wycombe can cling to the latter and tailor the words as they prepare for a trip to Wembley. We will take the positives of the former, and some of the better aspects of a season that promised much, but our season is over.
THE Westcountry bluewash continued unchecked as Wycombe Wanderers spoilt the Greens’ party and left their hopes of reaching Wembley – and winning promotion – dependent upon a two-goal swing in Wanderers’ Buckinghamshire heartland on Thursday.
It looked a far, far worse prospect with five minutes to go, but sublime late goals from substitutes Zak Ansah and Jason Banton means that the...
LONG way to go for nothing! For a team whose first-choice colours are green, Argyle did not enjoy the rub of the same at faraway Brunton Park.
In a game from which victory would have put them within a point of qualifying for the Sky Bet League 2 play-offs, they started brightly but fell behind after a third of the match to a worldy strike from Gary Dicker which the Irishman will do...
Two Portsmouth goals in a rollercoaster second half were enough to subject Argyle to an agonising 2-1 defeat, though it was perhaps it was a goalless opening 45 minutes that played the biggest part in the Greens losing this Dockyard Derby.
The damage from Pompey was done between the 46th and 77th minutes, with goals from Jed Wallace and Ryan Taylor. An excellent Olly Lee strike less...
A MAN from Cork provided a corker of a goal to set Argyle on their way to another home win and a crucial three points against in-form Northampton.
Anthony O'Connor's first career goal, scored midway through a tight first half, gave Argyle the lead which they hung onto - you might say clung onto - until the closing moments, when Lewis Alessandra made it two and sealed the deal.
ARGYLE'S run of four consecutive victories came to a shuddering halt at Home Park thanks to a familiar old foe.
It was rather fitting that seven days after a hugely satisfying win at the home of Exeter City, former Grecian Danny Nardiello, previous a goalscorer for City against Argyle, returned to haunt the Pilgrims again.
His goal midway through the second half - ironically...
