Greens on Screen started its life in 1999 before many of the football sites that we are familiar with today, including Plymouth Argyle's own official site. Greens on Screen is dedicated to the sights, sounds and history of Plymouth Argyle Football club. It is owned and run by the Plymouth Argyle Heritage Archive, a charity dedicated to the promotion, preservation, and display of the heritage of our great football club.

The site owes its existence to Steve Dean.Without Steve's dedication and commitment for over 25 years, GoS would not exist and be the valued and loved resource for all football fans that it is today. The site is truly the envy of many clubs, and we owe a huge debt to Steve for his tireless work, and continued support behind the scenes.

Greens on Screen's first page was published in January 1999. Its early purpose was to bring Plymouth Argyle a little closer to those unable to see their team, and whilst it has changed a great deal over the years, its core themes - sights and sounds for Westcountry exiles - still stand. The site was very lucky to take on the content of Trevor Scallan's Semper Viridis in the summer of 2007, and in 2009 launched GoS-DB, a wealth of facts and figures from PAFC's history. A year later, we embarked on a complete history of Argyle, with much-valued contributions from chapter authors. Greens on Screen was taken over by its new custodians, The Argyle Archive, in 2024.

Greens on Screen is an amateur website and proud of it. It is run by a team of volunteers from the Plymouth Argyle Heritage Archive (Argyle Archive). Without the hard work and much-valued contributions of these volunteers, running the site would not be possible. Greens on Screen is self-taught and as a result, a little bit quirky.

Greens on Screen remains advertisement free, which means we are grateful for the generous support of our donors and the work of our volunteers to help keep it free of promotions. If you would like to support the work of Greens on Screen, please consider donating to the Plymouth Argyle Heritage Archive.

GoS's sole aim is to be a service to fellow supporters, and we look forward to continuing to celebrate Argyle's history for many years to come.

With over 50 photos to display, this page may take longer than usual to load.
Also you many find that some thumbnails do not appear first time. If this happens, click on your 'refresh' button to correct.

Thanks to the club for allowing camcorders in, here are some very amateur glimpses of the big day: The annoying and very frustrating thing for me is that the quality of the originals is excellent, but I have to cut and compress them heavily (and lose quality) to limit the traffic to my site. Sorry folks, nothing I can do.
	A couple of hours before (44 secs, 556K) A hive of activity with over 2 hours to go. Take a look, just for the bloke with the bugle - that's what it means to be green.
	Take your seats (51 secs, 1457K) If you've not been to the new Home Park, now's your chance!
	The team & children (47 secs, 1325K) A nice touch this, the players came out before their warm-up hand-in-hand with their children (and others belonging to backroom staff), including Maxime Friio, Shane & Shannon Coughlin, Henry Hodges, Harry Wotton, Kirk & Arran Sturrock, Freddy Stapleton, Joseph Hill, Jack, Harry & Joe Fry and Cobi Budge.
	Bring on the champions! (54secs, 1528K) With 18,500 singing their hearts out, on came the team.
	The presentation of the chamionpship trophy (110 secs, 3084K) If this doesn't bring a lump to your throat, then as Tyhee would say, you just don't get it.

The photos have been flooding in, many absolutely stunning. It's just not practical to acknowledge each one individually, but thanks from us all to Andy Laidlaw, Ray Semmens, Ray Mitchell, Chunker, Mark Wood, Stu Caskey and Tom Hammett (and me!)
