But much has changed since that evening. Dudley and assistant Lee Peacock have overseen a strong turnaround in results, particularly at Bolitho Park, where Parkway have made the Theatre of Trees a difficult destination for visiting sides.

Since taking charge, Dudley has dropped just two points at home across six fixtures, and he will be hoping supporters again turn out in numbers to provide the backing needed to get his side over the line.

Team news also offers encouragement. Rocky Neal and Mikey Williams both returned to action last weekend and are expected to be available for selection. Club captain Shane White continues his recovery from injury and will hope to be included, while loanee Mitch Beardmore edges closer to full fitness after an impressive start to his return before injury halted his progress.

There are still stories to be written before the final whistle falls on the season, and Saturday offers another chapter. 

With one final home fixture remaining, the message from within Bolitho is clear,  the club will once again call on the Plymouth public to get behind their local non-league side and help drive Parkway towards the finish line before next weekend’s final trip to Gosport Borough.
