Agreed. It will be a fascinating evening.dunlop":11vq3jdf said:Looking forward to it, this guy has so much knowledge on Argyle not to be missed.
I remember this deal well. In my opinion it spelt the beginning of the end for Tony Waiters at Home Park. It appeared that he was acting in Paul Mariner's interest as opposed to that of Plymouth Argyle. Apparently Mariner wanted to go to Ipswich but Ipswich could not afford a cash only deal so they threw in two players. One was a centre forward who I thought was a carthorse and no way would Waiters have signed him in normal circumstances. The other was a defender who was a half decent player but had suffered a fractured skull whilst playing for Ipswich. He never fully recovered and he had to retire from the game after a far too short Argyle career. Ipswich at the time were managed by a well known Manager who is no longer with us. There are people who believe he stitched Argyle up over this transfer.IJN":2fckmhky said:The amazing story was Paul Mariner. West Ham agreed a fee of £200k, the papers were signed by both clubs and placed in the safe until Monday morning. In comes Tony Waiters and told GL that the deal was not done and he agreed a money and player exchange for Mariner from Ipswich.
West Ham reported Argyle to the league for that one!!
