Just spoken to Plymouth to arrange details with the coach and they've said that we will have access to a bar in our part of the ground. They also said we've got an end that holds 2,000 so plenty of space for the 150 or so that will be there! For anyone going with children, they said there's a family section where the kids have activities they can take part in if anyone's interested.
It's going to be a tough game but we have nothing to lose so lets go there and try to win the match. I personally think we will get a 1-1 draw.
Let's all get behind the team, make plenty of noise and sing lots, let's be the 12th man and spur the team on!

From my time spent 'oop north' and following oldham home and away, i remember john sheridan getting his team to play football on the deck, quick passing and breaks down the wings. I've always felt that we play better against a team who are not just trying to hoof it 50 yards, although this year been a little suspect at the back against pace. Anyway what will be will be, lets all go and have a great day.
shocking first half hour then we got in the game and deserved the goal,ref was awful even a plymouth fan said that and the best part was the reception luke 'the killer' mccormack got...i thought he got of lightly
The first goal came from a lovely flowing move, and their little winger (gurreri? who was excellent all game) provided a very good finish.
The second came after a free kick, the ball wasn't properly cleared and one of their CB's placed the ball in to the bottom corner from the edge of the box, good finish, although the defenders were hesitant.
The third, a good corner in to the box, a Plymuff player rose highest to score.
We came out better in the second half, deserved our goal, but if we got a draw it would have been harsh on Plymouth, although they slowed it down in the second period, they were still the better side, and had that little bit extra quality.
Agree with the comment above about Luis Cumbers- great to see him back. Thought we were a bit tentative at the start, and that terrible ten minutes killed us. Credit to the boys for digging in and trying to play football for the remainder of the half.
Second half I thought we had a go and caused them a few problems but it wasn't to be.
Still think people have unreasonable expectations after our good start. To be 13th, ten points above the relegation places and having beaten Luton to reach the FA Cup 2nd round and a tie at Plymouth is something that I would have been delighted with at the start of the season. We were always likely to hit a sticky patch at this level, but still think we will be fine.
Good luck to the team on Tuesday. Believe in yourselves because you are good enough to play at this level and if you keep doing the right things the results will return.
Despite the result it was a really enjoyable trip and weekend. Let's be positiive and ignore the merchants of doom!
Just got home. I thought the performance after the mad 30mins was brilliant, really took it to them and showed what we can do. Will not lose many (if any) playing like we did in the 2nd half. Heads up lads, time to concentrate on the league.
