    It is no more of a travesty than many other things that happen in football games during the course of a season. Things that we have all got over, or counted our blessings about.

    And that penalty that we might have got at Burton could have been taken by someone like Phillips who doesn't get as lucky as he did today.

    We had plenty of time after that to do the business and we didn't.

    Feel aggrieved by all means but to persever in obstinate distress is a course of impious stubbornness. ‘Tis unmanly grief. It shows a will most incorrect to heaven, A heart unfortified, a mind impatient, an understanding simple and unschooled. For what we know must be and is as common as any the most vulgar thing to sense, Why should we in our peevish opposition take it to heart? Fie! ‘Tis a fault to heaven,

    In other words, man up.

    Do you quote that every time anyone complains about anything or feels "aggrieved".

    You mean "Shut up and suffer in silence, expect no help or support, not even sympathy" ?

    I still think we're rank outsiders for top 2, although 3rd is now looking very possible, with the wheels completely coming off at Wednesday.

    I thought Plymouth would end up dropping from the top 2 but they keep on grinding results.
