Luggy's new job

http://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/former-argyle-manager-paul-sturrock-joins-plymouth-parkway/story-29490716-detail/story.html

PAUL STURROCK has taken on a role as a football advisor at ambitious Carlsberg South West Peninsula League club Plymouth Parkway.

Sturrock, 59, will provide advice and support to manager Kevin Hendy but will not take up a position in the dug-out on matchdays.

The move comes only a couple of months after local businessman Mark Russell took over as the new chairman of Parkway.

He wants to see Parkway progress up the football pyramid, first by securing promotion to the Western League.

Russell believes that former title-winning Argyle manager Sturrock can play a part in helping the club to achieve that first target.

Sturrock said: "I first met Mark to discuss Plymouth Parkway a couple of weeks ago and straight away I could see the passion to drive the club forward and actually felt that I could help with the club moving forward.

"This was followed with a meeting with Kevin and vice chair Gez Baggott, where discussions moved to how I could help Kevin.

"I am delighted to be joining such a great club with ambition to grow and looking forward to helping the club succeed."

Hendy believes he can benefit from the experience of Sturrock, who has managed at several clubs in Scotland and England.

He said: "When Mark first mentioned to me about Paul joining the club, obviously I was slightly surprised.

"However, I met with Paul and we had some really good discussions.

"This move is good fotr the club and also me personally as I am sure there are many things I can learn from someone with Paul's experience."

Sturrock already knew of Russell through his involvement with the Green Taverners at Argyle.

Russell said: "Paul is someone I have known from his days at Plymouth Argyle and spoke to him while he was in charge on many occasions.

"When I had the initial conversations with Paul about joining Parkway I was excited that someone of Paul's calibre would be interested to join our club.

"As I am sure you can imagine, I have just joined the club and was also very keen to make sure Kevin knew that I wanted Paul to come and offer his knowledge and experience to help the club progress, and not to put Kevin under any pressure.

"I am really looking forward to seeing Paul at the games and also helping the coaching staff on the training pitch."

Russell added: "Paul will also be working closely with the reserve team to help up-and-coming manager Seve Catindig-Stagg in his first season managing in men's football."

There has been quite a turnover of players at Parkway during the close season this summer, with brothers Levi and Michael Landricombe making the switch to Southern League club Tiverton Town.

But Parkway have, to date, brought in seven new players, including former Argyle apprentices Josh Grant and Mason Hughes.

Sturrock led Argyle to the Division Three title in 2001/02 with a then record 102 points.

The Pilgrims were also on the brink of another promotion in 2003/04 when the former SWcotland international striker left to take over at Premier League club Southampton.

Argyle went on to clinch the Division Two title in their first match under new boss Bobby Williamson.

They'll be a league one club before Argyle foreshore.

Is that Mark Russell the Green Taverners bigwig? What's that all about then?

Sure its a great set up and that but they are named after a dual,carriageway ffs

With Argyle likely to be fourth division also rans for the next few years until Brentxit, the emergence of a rival ambitious club in Plymouth would come as no supprise, the Plymouth public are not stupid they know under Team Jimmy, Argyle are just bumbling along.

If announcing Ginsters as team sponsors is seen as ground breaking to him that tells you all you need to about brent's level of ambition.

He used to be involved in the Taverners, but I believe stepped away to concentrate on his business. He ran a Sunday league team which merged with Parkway and that's how he's now their chairman.

Twas the bog paper Herald that was bigging up the announcement, which tells you more about that arse wipe rag than anything else at the moment

This isnt really news, Sturrock was involved in a similar capacity with Callington Town last season. In fact he this summer sent every local club an email offering his services and its clear that parkway took him up on that offer, add into the mix that the chairman is a PR guru and you have a big news story

And todays clickbait is regarding Tyler Harvey 'impressing' in a trial at a championship club. Although it appears that that wasn't mentioned at all in the match summary. just the little boys making it up again!

Exactly i think thats how they make their money because no fecker is buying the paper these days. Also, all they seem to do is troll social media for stories to report on then think of a way to link it to plymouth or somewhere near. Thats not journalism in my eyes.

I heard that the poor whale stranded on Perranporth beach initially tried to come ashore at the Barbican, but was turned away by some angry youths who hated the Welsh.
