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.

JOSH BERNARD

Born: 12 April 2006

Came from: Trainee Currently on loan at: Tiverton Town

Appearances: 0 (0/0) Goals: 0

Born in Penarth, Wales, Bernard moved to Plymouth at a young age, and played football in the Devon Junior & Minor League, first for Manstow (in Ivybridge), and later for Plymouth Parkway.

A career in football was his dream but he was turned down by the Argyle Academy as a young teenager, and by 16 had all-but given up on his chances of a career in the game. After two months labouring on a building site, he joined the football education programme of the Argyle Community Trust - a mix of general edication and opportunities to play the game - and such was his development and commitment, he was given the chance to play for the Argyle Academy's under-18 team, making his first appearance in March 2023.

He became a mainstay of Argyle's under-18 side in 2023-24, helping them to win both the Youth Alliance and Merit Leagues, and his commendable rise was rewarded in June 2024 with his first professional deal.

In August 2024, he and fellow new professional, Jack Matthews, joined Tavistock on loan, and two months later, 18-year-old Bernard began a three-month loan spell at Tiverton Town.
