    Disappointing result in the end....having dominated the game to only come away with a draw.

    Brunt's headed goal halfway through the second period seemed to be enough until a late lax moment in defence allowed Crawley an equalizer in a game where they didn't really threaten McCormick's goal at any other time.

    Accrington where the only chasing team to gain on Argyle's second position.....they are eight points behind with two games in hand.

    March will be an interesting month that could make or break the season: Oxford at home and Accrington away.

    We'll now need Northampton's form to slip like ours did during the injury-hit spell before Christmas if we're to be champions I think. They have Wimbledon, Mansfield, Bristol Rovers and Portsmouth to go from the top 10.

    Nail biting stuff now but can't afford to give away sloppy goals. Will be a srap to the end I believe. ...:emoticon-0165-muscl

    Forster got panned in the local press firstly for conceding an unneccessary foul down by the corner flag and then losing the man he was supposed to be marking from the resulting free-kick, leading to Crawley's equalizer.

    Adams is quoted as saying:

    "We gave away a needless free-kick in the wide area and we lose the player (Yorwerth) in the box.

    "We have thrown away two points today. That's disappointing because somebody hasn't been able to do their job properly."

    It will be interesting to see who starts at RB at Yeovil.....

    Despite being stuck in France on Saturday due to late running ferries I was kept up to date with what was happening score wise. Got a bit excited when they told me it was 1 - 0 to us and Brunt had done the business. Sank a bit when told it was 1 - 1 but then thought it wasn't that terrible given other results around. Read in the paper on Sunday that we dominated and that Adams was enraged by the sloppy goal. Went back to being disappointed then.

    It is hard in any division now to win all the time or even win all of the games we expect them to. Ok Northampton are proving it can be done at the minute but they are the only ones who are. We are dong alright and I still think automatic is on. There are going to be good days and not so good ones on the run in.
