Hartlepool 3 Argyle 2 - Match report

Three turned out to be a luckier number for Sky Bet League 2’s bottom side than it did for Argyle’s fans, whose sole consolation for their 775-mile round-trip in the dead of winter was that it was paid for in a sponsorship deal with mobile phone network 3UK.

What a difference a week makes...in some respects.

This game yielded an identical result, but a performance far superior to the lethargic display that so angered the manager at Bootham Crescent....
