WHO ARE THEY?
Formed in 1886 at a Coffee House in Plymouth as the Argyle Athletics Club. The name Argyle was fashionable at the time due to Queen Victoria's love of Scotland. They became Plymouth Argyle in 1903 and played their first Football League game in 1920. They have never played in the top flight but were FA Cup semi-finalists in 1984 and League Cup Semi-Finalists in 1965 and 1974. Their nickname is the Pilgrims and their manager is Ian Holloway who took over back in June after Tony Pulis moved back to Stoke.
