Plymouth Argyle Miscellany collects together all the vital information you never knew you needed to know about the Pilgrims. In these pages you will find irresistible anecdotes and the most mindblowing stats and facts. Heard the one about the 90-year-old director who was registered as a squad member? How about the two London-born midfielders called Lee Hodges who both played for the club? Or the penalty kick that ended up in the hippo pen at Plymouth Zoo, Home Park's 70s neighbour? Do you know which Greens forward let young children swing from his outstretched arms? Which Pilgrim became a saint by saving a baby from drowning? Or how long Sean McCarthy wore his undergarments before celebrating his 200th goal? All these stories and hundreds more appear in a brilliantly researched collection of trivia - essential for any fan who holds the riches of green-and-white history close to their heart.
Rick Cowdery is the author of both Plymouth On This Day and Plymouth Argyle On This Day. Formerly the Western Morning News sports editor, Rick is now Argyle's Head of Communications. This is Mike Curno's first book. A lifelong Argyle fan, the grandfather of nine has contributed to the Argyle Customers' Charter, Pilgrims Way and the club programme.
