Relief all around…… Difficult circumstances for Plymouth, as they found themselves travelling more than an hour more than us, despite this being a ‘home’ tie. Very good support from our fans, despite the late rearrangements. More credit to the players, who made the squad more solid than of late, with their commitment and availability. What a difference having two forwards on the pitch too. During the game, where at times it was getting tight and congested, there were options and different channels where we were able to play to. Special mention to Lewys Twamley, who apart from another well taken goal, he has excellent close ball control and is able to make inroads. He also has a sweet left foot, splitting defences in the process. He is so difficult to man mark. Although he carries the ball from deep, I reckon he’d make a good number ten, just behind the front two. Hope the result will get the squad’s confidence back.
