Amber Alert

Archie, Alex, and James Stables—aka One Team In Devon and BBC Radio Devon co-commentator on the day—break down another tough week for Argyle, starting with a battling 0-0 draw away at Watford and whether the first half showed genuine encouragement or just flattered to deceive. They discuss key moments, tactical decisions, and whether the subs once again hurt momentum. Attention once again turns towards Michael Baidoo after yet another underwhelming display. The pod grapple with his underwhelming performances, and fail to believe that he's simply not very good, so what are the underlying issues ?

Final-third decision-making, or rather the lack of it, takes centre stage as the pod dissects what stopped Argyle from taking all three points. BBC Radio Devon commentator and friend of the pod, Michael McCann, sends in his full-time report, offering a more glass-half-full perspective on events.

In part two, the pod looks at the club’s messaging during the international break, particularly the latest "Chairman’s Chat"—a reflective and insightful letter where the possibility of relegation is openly acknowledged. There’s also time for a look ahead to Norwich, with the pod caught between daring to dream and getting bogged down in Opta’s 97% chance of relegation.

In part three, James and Archie dive into James’s latest newsletter, unpacking the butterfly effect of Foster’s sacking and the knock-on impact it has had on the club’s trajectory.
