Pilgrims wait on Anderson

Plymouth Argyle manager Paul Sturrock has revealed that a possible loan return for Russell Anderson is in the hands of the Sunderland defender.
The Scotland international has spent the past month on loan at Home Park and is now mulling over a return following talks with Black Cats boss Roy Keane.
The 29-year-old made seven appearances for the Championship play-off contenders.
"I would like to keep him and he has been up there today talking to Roy Keane," Sturrock told the club's official website.
"It is a difficult one for him because his wife and two kids are up there.
"He has trained with Sunderland today and, all being well, he will come back down on Wednesday, so at least he has had a couple of days with his family.
"He has been dedicated to the cause. For a loan player to commit himself, stay on his own down here and give us the performances he has, shows you the model professional the boy is.
"I know what it is like when your wife and kids are up there, so he has that to mull over in his mind."
