Really doesn't look good for them. Hopefully the deal will go through for Brent to buy the club by the end of the month.

Plymouth Argyle Football Club (In Administration) today announced that Peter Reid has left his position as manager of the football club.
Peter joined Argyle as manager at the beginning of the 2010-11 season and inherited an unsustainable wage bill and a club that with the benefit of hindsight was in financial meltdown.
During the last 15 months Peter has been the ultimate professional and has gone about his duties without complaining and has had to cope with more in a short period of time than most managers have to put up with in a whole career.
Ultimately however, whatever the challenges, football is a results business and, today, Argyle sit bottom of the Football League with only one point out of 27.
It is crucial that we give ourselves time to attempt to preserve Football League status and therefore it is felt that a change of manager now is the only option.
Peter leaves with our unreserved thanks for his contribution in helping keep the club alive during this turbulent period and he leaves with our very best wishes for the future.
An announcement will be made within the next 24 hours with regard to interim arrangements for the management of the first team.
Peter Ridsdale
Acting Chairman

ps Yet another dagger is plunged into the body of loyal Plymouth supporters. God help the next poor sod who tries to get something going on the pitch - 'cos they're on an absolute hiding to Jackie S.
What a f***ing shambles.

Are they hinting he was pushed due to poor results?

the acting chairmans statement seems very familiar , alls thats missing is the now lets get behind the new manager and team bit , which no doubt will follow shortly.
Ridsdale has sacked Reid.
I'm absolutely disgusted with this decision. Yes we are bottom, with 1 point from 27, but Reid has been working with both hands tied behind his back.
We are playing youth teamers and young loanees with 2 or 3 more experienced players in the squad (and we've just lost one of those for the next 3 games).
The players haven't been paid properly since November last year....what did Ridsdale expect? Most of this appears to be Ridsdales fault. Ridsdale was the one so behind Heaney as he would of got his grubby mits on a club for £1. The takeover could of been done and dusted months ago. Reid would of had time to assemble a squad, rather than having to promote the youth teamers. Our forward line is being led by a 16 year old kid for heavens sake!! It's Ridsdale who should be out, not Reid.

I really do feel for Plymouth's fans and Peter Reid. Hope things pick up for the club very soon and they survive.
Interesting to read Steve Evans programme notes yesterday and blaming injuries for Crawley's 6-0 and 3-0 defeats to Morecambe and Swindon respectively. Well he should try managing Plymouth with not a pot to piss in. What a tool that man is and Peter Ridsdale too.

How an you expect players to perform when they're not being paid. Utterly ridiculous. Let's show our support on Friday - and on Saturday at Fans Reunited at Home Park, if you can make it.
If anyone can help out with leaflets at Liverpool and with green cards/balloons/flags before the Leeds game, please pm me. Thanks.

A job for Nicky Forster as manager but also register as a player if needed? Must know enough players and managers to call in favours etc.
Ridsdale is obviously a fcuking clueless wanker who does not give a toss for your club, when was the last time Peter Reid was paid.I must go now this thread is making me very f***ing angry
From the BBC live football updates:
1257: Further to the news at 1200 that Peter Reid and Plymouth have parted company, I can now report that Reid was sacked. A real kick in the teeth that, considering he recently auctioned off his 1986 FA Cup final losers' medal to help some of Argyle's unpaid staff.
On the face of it, that's very poor indeed.
