"The ultimate job of a coach is to become redundant."

Aaron Cusack is a voice and a face many Argyle fans will know through his work for Argyle TV. However, his association with the football club goes back way before the microphone.

As a football mad child, living in Plymouth, Aaron dreamt of being a footballer. He almost achieved that dream, getting a Youth training Scheme at the club before ultimately being let go at 18.

He didn't let that disappointment end his association with the game though and quickly made his journey into coaching. He spent 13 years at the Argyle Academy and has been instrumental in the development of players such as Adam Randell and Mike Cooper.

This is the story of Aaron Cusack.

Player, coach, manager, scout and pundit.

Chris Hargreaves arrived at Home Park in 1998 and the Green Army were treated to a couple of solid years of his luscious flowing locks.

Born in Cleethorpes, he made his name as an exciting centre-forward for his home town club, Grimsby Town.
Being a local hero, in a successful team was becoming a distraction, so a move to Hull and a conversion to a midfielder set Chris up for the rest of his career.

Remembered at Argyle for a thunderbolt against Reading in the FA Cup and for his energetic performances in midfield, Chris went on to win a couple of promotions in the latter stages of his career before becoming a successful coach and manager.

He can now been seen in commentary boxes and television screens, across the country as he adds even more strings to a pretty full bow.

This is the story of Chris Hargreaves.

An Argyle fan, who helped relegate the club.

There wont be many with a story like Ryan Dickson, born in Saltash and an Argyle fan pretty much his entire life, Ryan grew up wanting to be like his heroes; Martin Phillips, Paul Wotton and Michael Evans.

At 17 he got that chance, thrown in against Wigan Athletic,  the runaway leaders in the Championship. Despite some impressive performances, injuries hampered his development and eventually a move to Brentford resurrected his career.

A bit of a cult figure at Griffin Park, Dickson was destined for bigger things. Fulham and Southampton came calling and it was the pull of the south coast that tempted him. Training with the likes of Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, he pushed on again. Then, at the end of the 2010/11 season, he helped relegate Argyle at Home Park.
