I've put Sturrock as No 1 because I think the man is a bit of a football genius.
But you could make an equal case for Dave Smith- his achievements were at a higher level and he nearly took Argyle into the top flight. He signed some classic players.
Adams is doing well so far- but he can't yet rank above Sturrock and Smith.
My thoughts too.
Me too.
After a decade in the doldrums (fa cup semi excluded), he made some fantastic signings and transformed the team in the 85-6 season. After Argyle's infamous 4-3 defeat at Reading in December, we dropped from 2nd to 10th by February. He re-signed Tynan and we climbed the keague again playing some great football to finish 2nd behind Reading. The next season we were so close to the promised land. I think we were in third place at Easter afrer winning at pompey before we fell away to just miss out on the play offs.. (Thats all from memory!, hope it serves me right).
My two favourite seasons and the reason he's above Sturrock mk1 and Adams for me. However, if DA gets us promoted and consolidates in the Championship I might reconsider......
