Guy Branston played for 19 clubs in a 20 year career. He had a reputation as a tough tackling no-nonsense defender, but in reality he was so much more.

Promoted five times and having played across four different levels in the English game, he fell back in love with the game in Devon and remembers his to spells at Home Park as some of his favourites.
