Quote from Tony Pulis (the new Argyle manager) following their draw with Luton at the weekend. This one (especially the last bit) goes into the category of 'Things your manager can say that might make you question slightly why he's a manager':

“People say it's a great job with the substitutions, but you do it as much in hope as anything else.

We wanted Matty Derbyshire to go on and stretch them and that's what he did, but Nick Chadwick also caused them problems when he came on.

As for Bojan Djordjic, I didn't even know he could head a ball.”

So, um, how did he get in the team then? Cause let's face it, we're not exactly Arsenal, so he's not going to get a lot of passes to feet...

Still, it's a point, so I'm happy Smile

What you need, mate, is the kind of striker who, after months of injury problems, and unfortunate suspensions after William Gallas couldn't take a playful headbut, can come back and score what is undoubtedly one of the best penalties of the past 150 years. I thought as Beattie calmly placed the ball in the top right corner that I saw a patch of wetness beginning to appear around the feet of Petr Cech as he could do very little but stand and admire what, again, must be the best penalty of the past 2000 years. I dont think even Jesus scored a better one. I mean what a strike. Beattie, mate, thats what you need. None of this Chadwick shite. I mean which mugs would buy him? Still, you drew, we drew and the shite lost - fine few days all round.
