Holloway happy as 10-man Plymouth stake claim

PLYMOUTH soared to fifth in the Championship with a 3-1 defeat of Derby to the delight of manager Ian Holloway — and despite being reduced to 10 men for most of the second-half.

The passionate Argyle manager is annoyed that his side are not getting the credit they deserve but hopes this result against Billy Davies’ Rams will make people take notice.

Holloway said: “It was a battle out there. It wasn’t pretty, it wasn’t the best but we have got great team spirit and they showed great spirit. There were some strange decisions out there but we got on with it and got the result.
