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.

KARL DUGUID

Full Name: Karl Anthony Duguid

Born: 21 March 1978

Came from: Colchester United Went to: Released

First game: 09 August 2008 Last game: 07 May 2011

Appearances: 115 (106/9) Goals: 3

Duguid joined Argyle from Colchester United after 14 years with the club he joined as a YTS trainee. He made nearly 450 appearances for Colchester in midfield or at right-back, and was voted the club's best ever player. After missing the 2004-05 season with a knee injury, he returned as captain and led Colchester to promotion to the Championship. He was virtually ever-present during the 2007-08 season but could not prevent United being relegated back to League One.

Duguid enjoyed a successful start to his Argyle career, which included being named team captain and a move from right-back to the centre of midfield. Despite losing the captaincy to Carl Fletcher he was again a regular member of the first team in 2009-10, his versatility showing as he played in a variety of positions, and he agreed a one-year contract extension following the arrival of Peter Reid as manager. After struggling to gain a first team place in 2010-11 he returned to the team when the squad was depleted during the January transfer window, but could not help the club avoid relegation and was released with his contract at an end.

Duguid joined Colchester United for pre-season training, purely in an effort to keep fit whilst looking for a new club, but impressed manager John Ward and returned to his former club on a twelve-month contract. In February 2012 he made his 400th league appearance for Colchester and just days after his 34th birthday he signed a one year contract extension, tying him to the Essex club until the summer of 2013.

Duguid finished his Football League career at Colchester, where he became a coach after his first retirement from playing in 2014. However, he left his coaching role in October 2014 to return to playing with Essex-based Stanway Rovers in the Eastern Counties League later in the same month, before signing for Conference Premier side Welling United in January 2015. He re-joined Stanway Rovers in March 2015 before signing in May 2015 for Needham Market who had just become champions of the Isthmian League Division One North. After 13 appearances for Needham, he was named as head of their north site academy in October 2015.

In May 2016, Duguid joined Needham's rivals, Heybridge Swifts before making his move into management when appointed manager back at Stanway Rovers in December 2016.
