Just a Little bit of History Repeating

Swindon Town 2 - 3 Plymouth Argyle

Rewind the clock to 2003 and we have a near identical situation at the County Ground. Although it was again looking decidedly dodgy if it weren't for the 7 minutes of added time, Wright-Philips wouldn't have got the 90+6 minute winner.
The boys are starting to play a more decent form of football, though there is still a long way to go yet, as witnessed by the Town's goals which knocked the Greens out of their stride, the reversion to typical Argyle hoofball and the long wait for the winning goal. However there were 14 shots on goal and 9 were on target, which is a good indicator of how the team were playing. Will they be able to continue on, or will they flop against Hartlepool like they did against Brighton?
But even so, the Greens have given the Green Army something to smile about this week, which eclipses the negative aspects of the match and takes Argyle a few more steps away from the relegation zone.
