Argyle Sons

Plymouth Argyle sons, the offspring of the coaching staff who have made the first-team, we’ve had a few in recent years.

It’s the break for international football, it’s a slow news day, so with that in mind who has been Argyle’s best son!
Let’s have a vote and find out!

Right-back Kenny Brown is the son of former Argyle manager Ken Brown. Brown junior signed for the Pilgrims in 1988 and went on to make 144 appearances in a three years spell before moving to West Ham United.

Anthony Pulis came from the loins of former Argyle boss Tony Pulis, who has this habit of playing young Anthony when other managers wouldn’t!
Anthony was on-loan at Home Park in 2006 and made five substitute appearances, the midfielder is now on-loan at League Two side Lincoln from parent club Southampton. How we miss his silky midfield skills.

Winger Sam Shilton is the son of guess who? Sam started his career at Argyle in 1994 but only played in four games in two years before a £125,000
(how much?) move to Coventry City.
Peter’s son is now at Bedworth United FC of the Southern League Division One Midlands.

Blair Sturrock is the son of current manager Paul Sturrock and has twice been signed by his old man, at Argyle and Swindon.
Blair, the king of the ‘keep the ball in the corner’ routine, moved to Home Park in 2001 and made 71 appearances over three years, with 60 coming from the bench.
Blair is now at Blue Square Premier League side Mansfield Town.

Luke Summerfield (pictured above) is the only current son at Argyle, although he’s on-loan at Leyton Orient and his dad, Kevin, left the coaching staff last month.
Summerfield junior seems to have been around for ever but is still only 21 and has played in 73 games over a five year period.

So who out of that lot who has been the best Argyle son?
