CHRIS CURRAN
Born: 17 September 1971
Came from: Torquay United Went to: Exeter City
First game: 23 December 1995 Last game: 26 April 1997
Appearances: 37 (32/5) Goals: 0
Signed from Torquay United in late 1995, Neil Warnock drafted in the young centre-back to strengthen Argyle's promotion-chasing squad. With Mick Heathcote, Richard Logan and Keith Hill ahead of him, Curran made just nine starts as Argyle won promotion through the playoffs - though one of those did come in the playoff final at Wembley itself.
The Birmingham-born defender was out of the side more often than he was in it the following season, but did rack up 22 appearances as Argyle consolidated at third-tier level. However, with Warnock gone, Curran was sold for £20,000 to Exeter City - and thus became a member of that rare band of players to have worn the shirts of all three Devon clubs.
