Their analysis on the Sheff Weds goal gets the players wrong. |  | |  |

I noticed that it was more about the tone of the article |  | | |

I’d rather we flew under the radar but like the fact we’re there to be shot at nowadays rather than laughed at. |  |

Best bit is there is still a Plymouth fan in the comments...!
Nice article and undoubtedly they are going great guns. Personally, I think Plymouth are playing better football, but it’s a long season and it’s early days. |  |

I don't think we should underestimate Plymouth, good team, good manager, a club looking up overall, supporters fully behind them as well. They could end up contending for promotion again. |  | | |

As you’ll have seen at the weekend, they had a very good result. | |

They did indeed, and I think they'll have a few more to come as well, even against the better sides in the league. | | | |

Given that they spent the entirety of last season making it very clear that they believed a team's position in the league table is the only way to judge how good they are themselves and in relativity to other teams, I'd have thought they'd have no choice but to be accepting of how much better we are than them. |  |

....it's all very well sticking 6 past a mid table team at home, but we need to see how they get on against one of the quality teams to draw any real conclusions. |  |

Plymouth fans are to the league table what Norwich fans are to attendance.
They relentlessly bang on about it, right up to the point that it no longer works in their favour.
How they wouldn't accept we were better than them from January onwards when we'd earned more points is very weird given that they were instead suggesting that points gained a lot longer ago were therefore more relevant than those gained recently. Odd bunch. Nobody was arguing they hadn't got more points over the season but 13 wins from 14 and 8 clean sheets in a row says we were better at that point.
Some of those Argyle fans are now the table doesn't matter, having relied upon it in the same argument in May.
I see the Norwich view on attendances last season changed when we were getting bigger crowds and it became about divisional status. Right until we went above them in the same leagues.
Now it's about recent derby victories, the last of which was years ago, whilst simultaneously telling us that historical trophies don't count as they are in the past.
I can only assume that, should we beat them this season, and be above them, with bigger crowds and more trophies it'll be down to the something new - like whose Town or City has been mentioned the most for pedestrianisation in BBC comedy series.
Something important like that. [Post edited 28 Sep 2023 13:51]

So what you are saying is that other clubs' supporters quote facts and statistics in such a way that casts their team in the most favourable light, the same as our supporters. |  |

They absolutely smashed them sister bothering scumbags last weekend. You probably saw?
I wouldn't take that result as a sign of Plymouth being promotion contenders, more like naaaridge being relegation fodder. |  |
