Does make you think his financial demands weren't excessive. We could have done worse...

His departure was, from what I heard, more to do with failing a medical.

interesting.

but wasn't he there a week before leaving ?? you'd assume he'd had the medical prior to joining, but i guess nothing is straight forward down there at the moment !!

He has a dodgy knee. Argyle gave him a week to prove his fitness but he could not. Argyle then (in kindness) did not want to release the reason he was leaving as it would hamper him getting another club.

I suspect it won't be just be Argyle in a financial stew in Division 2 this year. The frank reality is people are more and more onclined to watch football through screens of various forms than spend money on watching live football.
The recession is componding that and the pre Olympics propoganda won't help football in the coming 12 months either. It will be a struggle for the next few years.
