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.

TOMMY GROZIER

Born: 25 August 1902

Came from: Rutherglen Glencairn Went to: Retired

First game: 14 April 1928 Last game: 26 October 1935

Appearances: 223 (223/0) Goals: 59

Grozier, an outside-right, was born in Rutherglen and began his playing days with Rutherglen Glencairn. He joined Argyle - his only senior club - at the age of 25, and although not a prolific goal-scorer, became one of a select band of Argyle players to have scored four goals in one game, a 6-1 home win over Crystal Palace in December 1929. He was a small and lively forward, and was an automatic choice for the Pilgrims for six seasons in the 1930s, spending nine seasons in total at Home Park. He played his final first team game in October 1935 and retired from football at the end of that season.

From David Junior Grozier in Coweta, Oklahoma, USA on 10/01/2016 ...

Tommy was my uncle and as good as he was I was told by my father [David Moyles Brown Grozier] that their sister Beth could outplay the boys! He also told me she was dubbed Lady Beth in Scotland. I don't know if this is true, if you could check this out it may be an interesting addition to uncle Tommy's publication. I'm doing our family tree at present and their were seven kids in the family, four sons and three daughters (Jeanie b.1900, Elizabeth b.1901, James b.1905, b.David 1906, b.Thomas 1907, Isabelle b.? and John b.?). If I can be of any further help please let me know and if you can give me any information on his siblings I would appreciate it. As far as I know they were all born in Rutherglen, just outside of Glasgow. Thank you and I enjoyed the write up on uncle Tommy. I have a grandson [Bryce Grozier, 12 years old] the team he plays on in Phoenix, Arizona, USA won the State competition last year and he scored a goal in the final game. I hope he is following in his great uncle's footsteps!

Thank you, David J. Grozier.
