Argyle Legends and a Crystal Palace forum are reporting that former Argyle forward Cliff Jackson has passed away. He was 76 and had not been well for some time. He arrived from Swindon Town in the summer of 1963. Argyle manager Ellis Stuttard knew what he was getting, having discovered the player when he was assistant manager at Swindon. Jackson was just 17 when he made his Swindon debut - Dave Corbett was also in the Town side. Although his first season at Home Park was a struggle in terms of injuries and results, Jackson really thrived under Malcolm Allison during the 1964-65 season. I remember an evening match against Newcastle when Jackson scored the winner at the Devonport end. He was near the edge of the Newcastle penalty area and passed the ball into the net. It wasn't travelling that fast and although it went close to several defenders it was so accurately placed that it evaded them all and the despairing dive of Newcastle 'keeper Gordon Marshall as it rolled into the net. Cliff Jackson will be remembered for his elegant style and range of passing, as well as for being a very likeable man who always had time for people. He made 85 League and Cup appearances for Argyle, scoring 20 times. RIP Cliff.
