Thread | Hutchinson, Sarmiento ... or Whittaker?
at 09:06 3 Mar 2024
All credit to the fans who go on such long journeys - this question is for them : on the basis of yesterday's game would you replace either Hutch or Jeremy with Whittaker?
Didn't hear much about Whittaker's contributions - was that our defenders owning him or just the reporting? |

Thread | RV seats
at 10:39 12 Feb 2024
I am an occasional visitor to FPR nowadays (though I was solid between 1967 and 1979). I'll be in the area for the Southampton game on Easter Monday and four of my family want to accompany me, including a 4 year old.
I'll have to wait until General Sale, need 5 tickets and am restricted to the Upper Tiers because of my grandson - so it's likely that any available will be RV tickets.
Any thoughts on how RV are the RV seats in general?
Also, any advice on what Stands/Block to aim for, in terms of usual best availability and suitability for the 4yo (he's heard swearing before, usually mine, but is not very tall so want to avoid standing areas if possible). |

Thread | I just bought my ticket but...
at 17:27 4 Oct 2023
For one of my few visits per season to PR (I'm now living in Dorset) I'm mighty relieved that I have got my hands on a ticket for the Plymouth game. It's in the Churchmans stand (or SAR as I believe it is now). Most other tickets left are in the family areas or have restricted views.
However, as an old fella I've got dodgy knees and can't spend the whole game standing up and don't want to be limited to a view of other people's backsides. ..
Is Block 6 SAR in an area where people habitually stand? If so, I'll phone the ticket office and see if I can change, but any insights appreciated. |

I wonder if he travelled with the Exeter squad yesterday - and, if so, what he felt as the game unfolded and the post-match celebrations ensued. I hope it spurs him on to fulfill the undoubted potential he has, with us or elsewhere. |

Gassan Ahadme scored the winner against Lincoln to confirm Burton's place in League One next season.
Glad to see him break his duck. |

Thread | Shot Stats
at 17:40 12 Nov 2022
I wasn't able to be at PR today. A lot of frustration expressed at our apparent inability to score goals, yet we're the second highest goal scorers in the league... puzzling.
I generated some stats for the top 3 clubs over their last 5 league games...
Ipswich - 109 shots, 24 on target (22%), 9 goals (8%)
Sheff Weds - 76 shots, 29 on target (38%), 9 goals (12%)
Plymouth - 78 shots, 32 on target (41%), 13 goals (17%)
Stats can tell lies, but I have to think - if only we had the same conversion rate as Plymouth. |

Thread | TWTD Ical Update
at 14:09 12 Oct 2022
Having integrated the TWTD Ical calendar in to my Google calendar at the start of the season, it still shows the Derby game as Saturday 22nd.
Does the TWTD Ical data need updating, or is it something I need to do? |

Anyone know a beer that tastes like the old Tolly Cobbold Cobnut, a sweet brown ale with a slightly nutty taste.
It's what I grew up on, and on the few times per season that I get back to Portman Road (from Dorset) I generally spend an evening or two doing "research" - so far without success but will keep trying.

Thread | Frank Clarke - R.I.P
at 13:02 3 Jun 2022
Those old enough to remember our first season in the old First Division after promotion under Bill McGarry will remember how we struggled until Jimmy Robertson and Frank Clarke were signed. Between them they injected energy, quality and a bit of belief into the team, and us supporters.
I feel the contribution that they made to a long period of subsequent success is often overlooked.
R.I.P Frank, one if my boyhood heroes and a reason why I learned to love The Towen.

EDIT - thinking about it, was probably our 2nd season. [Post edited 3 Jun 2022 13:06]
