MISCELLANEOUS REPORTS

Report 5: Youngest and Oldest

'Miscellaneous Reports' is an ever-growing collection of pages that reflect broad aspects of Argyle's playing history. If you have an idea for another, please get in touch.

Note: GoS-DB holds birth dates for 792 of 984 players, almost all of the missing ones being for some who appeared before 1920 and in the years close to World War II.

This report does not include those players, so the rankings shown here could be inaccurate.
