ARGYLE CLOSE GAP AT THE TOP TO THREE

Once again for Plymouth Argyle manager Derek Adams put his childhood friendship with his Doncaster Rovers counterpart Darren Ferguson as the Pilgrims completed the double over Rovers.

At the start of play six points separated Argyle and Doncaster, but a 50th minute header from Sonny Bradley proved to be enough to clinch a victory for the Pilgrims that moves them within three points of the South Yorkshire side.

Rovers had chances to find the target themselves as Argyle skipper was twice called upon to make important saves to deny Doncaster's former Torquay United loanee John Marquis during the course of the match.

Both Adams and Ferguson both grew up with Football in their blood, as Adams' father George was the first player to be signed by Ferguson's famous dad Sir Alex during his illustrious managerial career for East Stirlingshire in 1974. However, fast forward to the present day and the battle between the duo to get their hands on the League Two title is set to go right down to the wire.
