MANAGER Paul Sturrock is hopeful of adding two players to the Pilgrim's squad before the loan signing deadline at 5pm today.

With injuries and suspensions hitting players, and Péter Halmosi suffering both, the squad could perhaps benefit from a few extra bodies.

"Certain clubs have been talking to their players to see if they want to come to Plymouth Argyle FC." said Luggy.

"If it doesn't happen it doesn't happen. I'm reasonably comfortable if we didn't get anybody but it would be nice to get a fresh face or two before the next game."

The manager would not be drawn on any specific players but explained the difficulties he does face in trying to bring in players at this time of the season.

"Well I'm trying for two and I've got a few irons in the fire but it's very difficult because everybody is after the same players."

He also explained that he was looking for "somebody who can play in several positions."

The manager confirmed that he had enquired about former Pilgrim loan star Scott Sinclair prior to him signing for Crystal Palace this morning.
