    Plymouth Argyle manager Paul Sturrock told BBC Radio Devon:
    "We're the danger to ourselves. We've mentally not approached the Doncaster game and the Blackpool game to the standard and the way I would have liked.

    "With the attitude the players showed against Birmingham and QPR, yes we only got one point, but anybody at the matches would have appreciated we should have got more.

    "Our standards against the lower teams has been poor this season which proves to me that some people have got a problem playing the smaller teams."

    Pretty good considering they have no local matches compared to us.

    they have no local competitors at all-if you want league football you go to Plymouth-their "derby" games are Southampton Cardiff and Swansea -all over 100 miles travel

    Where does he say they are massive?

    We are one of the smaller clubs in the division crowd and finance wise. So are Plymouth and Im sure Sturrock would agree. Im sure he meant that his players performed better against the likes of Birmingham and QPR.
