Got a sidewall cut a couple of weeks ago, plugged it with an anchovie and everything was peachy. Today it started to leak again.
Watched a couple of how-to videos and decided to go with the least amount of faff. Patched it like this without sewing the cut:
It's currently reinflated (needed to use a compressor to seat it) and holding air. Fingers crossed it is still fine tomorrow.

I had the same issue, couldn't get the patch kit to stick though, then I tried a park tools boot ( which was worse) then I tried gorilla tape which worked perfectly.
