Great performance from a well set up team. They deserve to be promoted, good luck to them. We huff and puff but are ineffective ... can't score, make mistakes every game and have a dodgy keeper. Plymouth weren't lucky, just know how to win.
Exactly !. It's quite simple really, they score goals, keep clean sheets and are sitting on top of the league. Whilst at present the Reds don't score goals, don't keep clean sheets, and now languish in what some may describe as a perilous spot one place above an even more perilous situation.
Not being altogether convinced by this discussion as to whether good or bad luck really does exist, and if it does can be applied to League football ?. I am however convinced that this elusive element cannot be seen as having any overbearing effect on the team's performances and ensuing results.

Quo vadis Stanley ?.
