Plymouth Argyle boss Ryan Lowe praised his side for extending their unbeaten run to nine League One games following a 1-1 comeback draw against Crewe.

Lowe said: “Where we are now with 10 games gone on 19 points is a good start for us.”

In-form Argyle striker Ryan Hardie (pictured) took his season’s tally to nine goals with a 72^nd minute leveller to cancel out Scott Kashket’s near-post opener after three minutes and maintan Argyle's unbeaten run.

Lowe said: “I thought we were fantastic to be honest. We went behind to a freak goal, we have just watched it back and Mike (Cooper) got his angles wrong, which is fine because he’s been brilliant for us.

“You could see there was only one team dominating large parts. We have 40-odd penalty box entries and I just said to the lads we have to be a little bit more ruthless and a little bit more clinical.

“But I can’t fault them because I though they gave us everything, especially second half.

“Fair play to Crewe they’ve come here and tried to play. It was good footballing game.

“They put bodies on the line especially in the first half and a point apiece. We pushed for the three points towards the end but it wasn’t to be.

“Since Rotherham – when I didn’t think we quite ready, and I take the responsibility for that as manager - we have worked hard on the training pitch, our patterns of and the lads look fitter, stronger.

“To take 19 points from the first games out of the first 10 league games is really good. Now we look to the next block of 10 and see where we are after that.”

Fourth placed Argyle visit Michael Appleton's Lincoln City on Saturday.
