A table of redemption.
When he arrived at Home Park in what could have risen to be a club record fee, there were incredibly high hopes for Simon Walton.
He broke into his boyhood Leeds United side as a teenager, had almost 100 games at Championship level under his belt and was supposed to be part of a rebuild job that would take Argyle forward.
Fast forward just a couple of months and he was wanting out. A combination of bad performances, lack of professionalism and falling out with the manager left Walts on the transfer list – he was gone.
He had loan spell after loan spell and was losing his love for football until he was given the armband and the chance to prove himself and boy did he do that. He, along with the players in the 2011/12 season, will forever be remembered.
This is the story of Simon Walton.
