'DIFFICULT TO TAKE'

LEWIS Gibson has admitted that Plymouth Argyle having the worst defensive record in the Championship is 'not good enough and something that we will improve on!

- CHRIS ERRINGTON

The Pilgrims have conceded 40 goals in 19 games this season, which has included heavy away defeats against Sheffield Wednesday (4-0), Cardiff (5-0), Norwich (6-1) and Bristol City (4-0). That is five more goals than Luton Town have let in, while Norwich and Portsmouth are both on 30.

When asked how that made him feel as a defender, Gibson said: "Embarrassed, not nice. It's difficult to take. A bit angry really.

"It has been difficult moments, difficult times. We have played 19 games but the majority of them goals have come all at once. I think there was four games where we have conceded a ridiculous amount of goals, which should never happen.
