Edwards hoping for a special day at the Theatre of Greens

Now he is desperately hoping for another one as the Pilgrims’ bid to stay in the Championship goes to the final day of the season.

The home areas of the Theatre of Greens will be full, as has been the case for every league game this term, when they take on play-off hopefuls Hull City on Saturday lunchtime, knowing a win will guarantee their safety. However, a draw or defeat against Hull would give Birmingham City, who will be hosting Norwich City, the chance to secure their survival at the expense of the Pilgrims.

Argyle would have secured their Championship status had they beaten Millwall at The Den on Saturday but, instead, they conceded an 84th minute goal in a 1-0 defeat.

Edwards said: “The next game is going to be huge. We are at home, with our fans, it’s going to be a great occasion and we need it to be one of those special days at Home Park.

“It has been a place where we feel at home and we perform. We have had a few special ones already this season, we have had some incredible ones over the years and we need another one Saturday. We have got every belief we can still do it. It’s in our hands and we have got to take the positives and make sure we go into the game confident, knowing we are going to have the full city behind us.”
