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.

ON THIS DAY

1955: George Dews played his last game for Argyle, a 2-0 home win against Ipswich, having scored 81 goals in 271 games over the previous 8 years. As usual, Gentleman George's season ended before his teammates'; he was released each year to play first-class cricket for Worcestershire.

1974: Five years after swapping the Dockyard for full-time football at Home Park, Derek Rickard made his final appearance in a 1-0 victory over Charlton, before leaving Argyle for Bournemouth.

2016: Argyle announced a change of ownership structure and two new directors, Simon Hallett and his brother-in-law John Morgan.
