Plymouth Argyle FC have enjoyed a chequered history. They have reached the semi-finals of both the FA Cup and League Cup. They flirted with promotion to the top division in the 1930s and 1950s. But they have also known the misery of life in the basement of the Football League. Through good times and bad, great players have left their mark on the club. This book charts Argyles history from its birth to the present through the careers of some of those golden greats. The likes of Sammy Black, Jumbo Chisholm, Paul Mariner and Tommy Tynan to name but a few are profiled in this journey through time. Partaking of a tipple before a game, arriving forty minutes after kick-off, and playing with a cigarette behind one ear. These are not the exploits of a local Sunday League side but a selection of the bizarre stories recounted in Plymouth Argyle: 101 Golden Greats.
