Really enjoyed that today. Home performances are gradually getting better. Some of the play between Junho, Cundle and Manhoef in particular was a joy to watch. My only criticism was that we didn’t win by more. We battered them. your harsh 😉🤣😂

I do like the bloke, I think he’s done what can be expected of an up and coming coach, he’s completely transformed elements of the team, he’s also completely fucked things up at times but you can tell he wants this just as much as we do.
Wouldn’t say I’m looking forward to next season considering our life in the championship post premier league however it will be good to see a full pre-season under Schumacher.
If we can hover around 10-12th next season and build from there I’ll be happy with that, considering how fucking close we came to complete third tier oblivion.

Football fans are so reactionary and have really short term emotional thinking. Considering the shit show he inherited he has done orayt. Not sure he is going to improve us and make us play off contenders. The club have a decision to make and hopefully quickly. I don’t think Season Ticket sales will be brilliant if he stays. Will he be given control of a large transfer kitty when he brings in players like Ennis, Cundle, and Millions? Stick or Twist? Twist for me.

Schumacher is the resurrection. Hope so. My criticism was/is his inexperience. And at times it showed. Perhaps this last couple of months has given him a lot of invaluable knowledge. Today's performance was a joy to watch. .

By the skin of our teeth. He hasn't pulled us out of a relegation fight. I'm absolutely over the moon we are staying in this division and proved today that he can get something right. But to say that he's "saved" us is a bit over the top in my opinion.

I think under Neil we certainly wouldn't have picked up the points we have if he'd stayed. He really was a calamity of a manager, talked a great game. SS looked liked he couldn't hack the job after a few games but has obviously adjusted and steadied us. I imagine we'd be mid table-ish had his results counted over a season but of course doesn't work like that.
I like him and the football you can see he's trying to play. In Junho, Burger, Million we have 3 really good players for me and if we can add 3 or 4 good players in the Summer then have have a decent season next year.

There's some names we're not seeing tonight, or won't be seeing until next season (or ever again because it'll mean we're doing well under Schumacher).
Imagine being unable to give him even the tiniest bit of credit for today. He isn't perfect, he's made mistakes but he's somehow dragged this mess of a squad to 50 points. Today was absolutely brilliant.
Not bad for a bloke who's a coward, out of his depth, looks lost, etc etc.

Today further adds to my belief he's a good manager.
Anyone that was successful with that shambles of a Plymouth side must have something about him.

The second half last week after Burger's injury and today proves we have enough attacking talent, and enough balance in the squad to go out and attack teams - and the manager deserves credit when he does it - he needs encouraging to do it more often. Fans aren't unfair people. If a manager sends a team out to attack from minute 1 to 90 then the fans will be right behind him come what may. They understand that you can't win them all but, rightly, expect you to try to. What's wrong with that?

Really pleased for Schumacher today, especially considering the stick he was getting from the away end.
We hired a young up-and-coming coach and threw him into the deep end with an unbalanced squad and tension(s) behind the scenes.
He has definitely made mistakes, but it is important to remember that this is his first season managing at this level and his time managing a team in our situation.
I like Schumacher and I think he will be far better for this experience.
He definitely had to saceifice his footballing philosophy to grind out some points. However, I think today was a insight into what a Schumacher team actually looks like. Hopefully he will be able to build a team over the summer and mould it into what he actually wants.

They were indeed second from bottom going into that match The reality was though that since they were literally cut adrift on December 1st 2023 they were the 6th best championship team from that date onwards It’s always best to see the reality of it all

But he isn't out of his depth, he hasn't lost the dressing room, he isn't looking lost. If he gives us more days like today then we're on the right track.

Go after teams like today and days like today will be the norm. Don't think it's that simple though? That midfield against some teams will be too lightweight so he cant pick that midfield every game. Some games won't be right for a Campbell type, it'll need a battering ram type which we don't have right now so he's got to address that this summer. Maybe I'm giving some teams at this level too much credit, I forget sometimes how fucking dreadful the standard is at this level.

That's the same for most teams though I guess.

I thought today was wonderful but I think Plymouth's style of play really suited us down to the ground. I don't know if it gets them points against other teams, but nothing suits us better than a lightweight opposition who are happy to give us lots of space to carry the ball and pass around without pressure. We struggle against nasty physical teams that get right in our faces.
Well done to the manager for making controversial calls that totally outfoxed his former colleagues.
