‘He must have four lungs.’

To play 620 matches for one club over a 15-year spell, he probably did.

Kevin Hodges, quite literally, is THE Argyle legend. Two promotions, part of the incredible FA Cup semi-final side of 1984, numerous player of the season awards and, by a country mile, the club’s record appearance holder.

From the young lad who turned up in Plymouth after his hometown club’s youth set-up had folded, to the father figure to younger players in the dressing room, Kev’s journey has been remarkable.

In this two-part series find out how he broke through, what Elm Cottage was like to grow up in, playing in that super team in the late 80s and how a club legend feels coming back as a manager.

In Part One, we hear about his early days, the move to Plymouth and breaking into the Argyle first-team.

This is the story of Kevin Hodges – Part One.
