Nearly there!
Npower League Two
RESULT: Swindon Town 1 Plymouth Argyle 0 Swindon scorer: Connell 84
Swindon are one point from promotion after Alan Connell's turn-and-shot broke the dead-lock with six minutes to go.
But this was a bitter-sweet day manager Paolo Di Canio after it was announced just before kick-off that his mother had passed away on Friday evening.
The Town manager, who wore a black armband throughout the game, left the County Ground immediately after the final whistle to be with his family in Italy.
And in a day of drama, captain Alan McCormack was a late absentee after attending the birth of his child, giving Paul Caddis the chance to make his first start for 6 weeks.
Swindon now just need a draw at Aldershot on Tuesday to ensure League One football next season, with a victory also potentially securing the Championship if second-placed Shrewsbury fail to win.
The top of League Two.
