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.

JERMAINE EASTER

Born: 15 January 1982

Came from: Wycombe Wanderers Went to: MK Dons

First game: 27 October 2007 Last game: 20 September 2008

Appearances: 39 (25/14) Goals: 6

Easter began his career with Wolverhampton Wanderers before moving on to Hartlepool United in 2001, and then to Spennymoor United, Cambridge United, Boston United, Stockport County and Wycombe Wanderers over the following six years. A Welsh international striker, he joined Argyle from Wycombe in October 2007, initially on loan, and then permanently when the transfer window opened. After scoring just six goals in his first season at Argyle he expressed a wish to leave Home Park for personal reasons. No transfer offers were received but he joined Millwall on loan, which was subsequently cancelled to allow him to join Colchester United in another temporary move. After a successful spell at Colchester, he was forced to return to Argyle in December 2008 after suffering a medial ligament injury. After recovering he left Home Park the following summer and joined League One MK Dons.

In a two-year spell at Stadium:MK, Easter scored 15 goals in 50 games, and was also loaned to then Championship side Swansea City in November 2010. Despite wanting to make his move to South Wales permanent, he was recalled by MK Dons and within 24 hours had joined rival Championship side Crystal Palace for an undisclosed fee, signing a two-and-a-half year deal. In his time at Selhurst Park he played 55 times and scored 8 goals before joining Millwall on loan in March 2013. In July 2013 the move to The New Den was made permanent when he signed a one-year deal with Millwall, joining other former Pilgrims: Shane Lowry, Paul Connolly, Lee Martin and Nadijm Abdou.

In January 2015 Easter's contract at Millwall was cancelled by mutual consent, one of a number to suffer a clear-out by manager Ian Holloway. In his 18 months at The New Den, Easter had played 44 times and scored 5 goals.

However, he was quickly snapped up by Bristol Rovers, then in the Football Conference. With his help, Rovers were promoted to League Two at the end of the 2014-15 campaign and then went straight up to League One the following season. Easter was told that he was free to leave the club in January 2017 but he continued to feature intermittently in the first team squad and even managed a goal on his final appearance. After a total of 14 goals in 76 appearances, the 35-year-old was one of eight players released by Rovers at the end of the 2016-17 season.

Easter then had a pre-season trial at Yeovil Town and was offered a professional contract. However, the move never happened and in August 2017 he revealed on social media that he had retired from playing to concentrate on a job outside of football.
