    So do I. If they did and we were playing you it would mean we didn't have to still worry about getting enough survival points.

    Hi Greeny :emoticon-0128-hi:

    Plymouth will be fine mate, I thought your summer purchases were good, can't believe you are struggling especially with that young lad up front hitting the net on a regular basis.

    We lead 2-0, Sunderland and Barnsley are losing, 2nd place hasn't gone yet.

    Portsmouth now pegged back to 2-1. Sky saying the second goal to us was an own goal. But CAFC say Igor scored.

    Full time 2-0 <applause>

    Good win ...we are 6 points behind Barnsley with 6 games to go....but Portsmouth and Sunderland both won today as well <doh>

    It still looks like a semi v Sunderland in the Play Offs....

    With Sunderland's games in hand the dream play-off final has to be in doubt. It's remarkable how Bowyer has kept the momentum going in spite of the owner doing his best to undermine him.

    Bowyer has done an excellent job in the circumstances. But as we saw last year v Shrewsbury, it counts for nowt if you don't go up.

    I'm a believer that the teams that should go up automatically blow it if they end up in the play-offs. This can apply to all the teams above us.

    Charlton have never been within a sniff. We WILL go up.

    Second goal was an own goal. Just one of those things sadly. You are a good side even though we bossed the first half and still went in one down. Our problem is or was that we could not score. If we were still out there I still don't think we would score. One of those days which we have all had. I spoke to some of your supporters in a club after the game and I don't think they would argue with any of my comments. Had we scored the penalty then maybe, just maybe, we might have won that one. We didn't, you get three points and we all move on. My only comment to them is you have to get to the Wembley play off final at least and win it. Please.

    Good luck for the rest of the season.

    FWIW, I think Derek Adams is a good manager at this level, and you would struggle to get better.

    Thanks Royston. Don't forget if you make Wembley then you HAVE to win.

    Followed this on the updates, and sounds like we were very mundane for the first 40 minutes. Then one of those moments that change games - our keeper saves a penalty, after which we go ahead. Had Plymouth gone ahead, it could have been a very different second half, but as we were in front, but as it was, we sounded very comfy. Also have to give credit to Bowyer as he rested Taylor and a couple of others - had the Pilgrims sprung back we'd all be fairly annoyed, so hats off that it worked out.
    I guess I am still dreaming of automatic promotion after this. But really, that's at least partly because I don't think we have the quality to go through the play offs. They say it's a lottery, and that's partly true, but there was nothing lucky about what the Shrews did to us last season.
