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 - sites 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 is an amateur website and proud of it. It is run by one person as a hobby, although there have been aspects of the site over the years that would be much the poorer without the hard work and much-valued contributions of a small band of volunteers.

Greens on Screen is self-taught and as a result, a little bit quirky. Amongst a few stubborn principles, advertisements will never appear (and don’t get me started on the plague of betting promotions on other sites). It began its life before many others, including the club’s official site, when there was a large gap to be filled, and although there is now a wide variety to choose from, GoS’s sole aim, to be a service to fellow supporters, still seems to have a place.

An immense result!  I had a bad feeling about this one - we never do well at the County Ground - but non-stop running from a battling Argyle XI on a very difficult pitch saw the Greens win through. Tony Capaldi's early goal gave Argyle the edge and a David Norris's strike with 20 minutes to go seemed to have sealed it, but a quick reply from the home side set up a grandstand finish. And what a finish!  It all seemed over when Swindon equalised in the final minutes, but then bring on Marino Keith. A cracking game and an excellent advert for second division football. And three more points!
