Manager – Derek Adams
A very familiar face to Argyle and Derek Adams makes his first return to Home Park since leaving the club in May, having spent four years at the Pilgrim helm. Derek enjoyed a fine playing career in Scotland, representing the likes of Aberdeen, Ross County, Motherwell and Livingston. He managed Ross County before moving to Argyle in 2015 and was appointed Morecambe boss last month.

Pre-Match View
“I’m looking forward to this weekend. We [Argyle] obviously did exceptionally well; when we got promoted out of League Two, we had a mid-table budget. In a very competitive league, to get out of the league in the way we did and the football we played was very exciting. I don’t have anything to prove to anyone; history is history and you can’t change that.” Derek Adams, looking ahead to his Home Park return.
