'We could have won it'

Russell Slade has spoken to the media, and here is what he had to say...

“I thought we acquitted ourselves really well. In the first ten minutes we got a grip of the game. We were functioning well and we were moving the ball well.

“At that stage, Plymouth hadn’t caused much of a threat.

“But then Carey, with his first little bit of work, got them in front and that was the deciding factor at the end of the day.

“In the second-half, as the game went on, we grew. We were a bit slow to unwind, but we grew into it and put them under a lot of pressure.

“Woolford had a chance and we might have had a penalty. We could have won the game, there’s no doubt about it.”

Too little too late!

A timid first half performance and a spectacular goal from Graham CAREY proved Town’s undoing at Home Park this afternoon. Second half changes in the shape of Jamille MATT and Diallang JAIYESIMI saw a brief resurgence but it was too little too late and with that comes an end to Town’s participation in the season’s FA Cup.

FT!

Ref brings the game to an end!

FT: Plymouth Argyle 1-0 THE MARINERS

16:52

Consistency?

BERRETT witrh a terrific challenge the win the ball for Town and start a counter attack but he has his shirt grabbed and pulled down to the ground.... the referee gives absolutely nothing with Russell Slade going apoplectic on the touchline. It was crystal clear even from way up here in the press box. Where is the consistency in officiating??? 1-0

16:49

Corners

A succession of corners created some real belief that an equaliser could be found but that now seems to have subsided with Plymouth killing the game with some late changes. 1-0

16:47

Added time

3 minutes additional time allowed

16:47

JONES

With two efforts in quick succession from 20 yards... both blocked. 1-0

16:46

CARDWELL

Advances into the box but his shot is blocked. Town applying some real pressure. Has it come too late though? 1-0

16:45

Corner

SUMMERFIELD delivers an excellent, drilled corner right onto the head of JONES who gets his angles all wrong and heads ti away from goal. 1-0

16:44

Town Corner...

At least the away following are remaining in good spirits.

16:36

Close!

CAREY delivers a lovely ball to the back post that’s headed back across goal by GRANT but CLARKE gets there ahead of JERVIS to clear the danger and prevent an almost certain goal. 1-0

16:35

Freekick

To the home side, 30 yards out in the centre. CAREY over it.

16:33

Foul

The ref blows for a foul in the box as the corner is delivered. 1-0

Nice move

Involving JONES, BERRETT and DEMBELE results in a Town corner. 1-0

16:31

Penalty?

Strong claims from the Town players as MATT is brought down in the box - waived away by the referee. 1-0

16:29

MATT

Received a great reception when he entered the field, he’s fondly remembered by the home fans after scoring 7 goals in 12 games while on loan here last season from Blackpool. 1-0

16:26

Substitutions for Town

Vernon OFF Matt ON

Woolford OFF Jaiyesimi ON

16:19

SUMMERFIELD

Tries his luck from distance but only see’s it clear the bar. 1-0

16:18

Plymouth Corner

After a good CAREY delivery is put behind at the back post by COLLINS. 1-0

16:17

Better

Town finally test the home keeper. DEMBELE collects the ball on the edge of the box, turns onto his left and produces a good effort that acrobatically palmed away by MATTHEWS in the home goal. 1-0

16:14

Should have scored

DEMBELE carries the ball 40 yards up field, plays in JONES on the left who skips passed his man and delivers the ball into the box which the defender can only prod into the path of WOOLFORD 6 yards out on his favoured left foot.... unfortunately he mis-hits the ball when it looked easier to score and allows the home defence to clear. Should be 1-1

16:11

Chance!

CAREY glides past DIXON and produces and audacious chip into the box that’s plucked out the air by McKEOWN. 1-0

16:08

A change needed?

DIXON has been given a torrid time by CAREY and the long ball up to VERNON just hasn’t worked so far. Could the pace and trickery of JAYIESIMI off the bench be the difference? 1-0
