High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! After a poor start to the season, which made relegation a likely outcome, Argyle fired manager Bobby Williamson and brought in Tony Pulis. Argyle regrouped under Pulis and regained a solid place in the middle of the league standings. The team`s performance was one of contrasts. Argyle allowed only 46 goals, which made it the fifth (tied) best defense in the league – a play-off contending defense. However, Argyle only scored 39 goals, which made it the third(tied) worst offense in the league – a relegation performance. For the fans, it meant an endless series of 0–0, 1–0, and 0–1 games – not the most exciting to watch. However, under new manager Pulis, an expert at getting the best out of low budget teams (and filling strategic gaps with players loaned from other teams), relegation never looked likely.
