Match Preview/Stats/Thread: Plymouth Argyle v Newcastle Utd


By Tyne-Talk
April 18 2010

Newcastle United travel the length of the country tomorrow to Plymouth in what could be a very long coach trip, needing a single point to secure top spot for the season. They head into the game on the back of six consecutive wins in their last six games, three at St James’ Park and three on the road; Newcastle remain unbeaten in their last 14 games.

Plymouth Argyle host on the back of three defeats, one draw and a two wins in their last six games, but have failed to score in their last three at Home Park. Plymouth, who are currently second from bottom in the Championship table will be seeking 3 points to prevent the very real threat of relegation.

Plymouth could welcome back defender Kari Arnason (hip) and midfielder Luke Summerfield (hamstring), whilst Captain Carl Fletcher is expected to be fit in time having battled a knee injury swiftly followed by a calf complaint; the midfielder has been out since March but will be hoping to help his team stay up. Manager Paul Mariner is also without winger Craig Noone (knee).

Fabricio Coloccini is expected be absent for Newcastle United after picking up a hamstring injury against Reading in midweek and is likely to be replaced by Fitz Hall (hamstring) who is now fit again. Tamas Kadar misses out due to a thigh injury, striker Nile Ranger (ankle) is out for the rest of the season whilst Steven Taylor is still recovering from a broken jaw.

Fact: Newcastle United have won more games and conceded fewer goals than any other Championship team this season.

Fact: If Newcastle win they will become the 6th side this season to do the double over Plymouth.

ESPN 360 has picked it up if anyone stateside has access to it.

Unfortunately, I won't get to watch tomorrow, as I have a job interview. However, a clinched championship and a job offer would make for the start of a nice week.

It could either be a great day for you, 3 points and a job offer or a cr@p one we lose and you don't get the job. I am hoping for the first

Good luck with the interview

Bit of a @#$%& as I am missing the match myself down to training

Logically, it should be Newcastle supporters watching Liverpool v West Ham (as whether or not West Ham get relegated will have an impact on Newcastle's fixurelist for next season) and Watford supporters like myself watching Plymouth v Newcastle (as Watford could really do with Plymouth losing and at the moment have no interest in whether or not West Ham survive as we have to survive ourselves to think about playing West Ham), but it would appear it is vice versa as my dad (who supports Chelsea) is insisting on watching Liverpool v West Ham.

Hopefully Newcastle can extend their two-goal lead and damage Plymouth's goal difference.

At the beginning of the season I didn't expect us to be in this position with games to play.I thought it would be much more nerve-wracking than this.

Well done the lads. (Sm152)

As for the game, it was a good win even though we never really played that well. I've added the goals here as well:

Not sure yet. The school has their state-mandated tests tis week, and the week after they are going to narrow down to 3 potential candidates.
