Season summary

[edit]

In the 1991–92 season, businessman Dan McCauley became Plymouth's new chairman, and his first major decision was to sack David Kemp and appoint England's record cap holder Peter Shilton as player-manager. Shilton though was unable to prevent relegation as Argyle finished 22nd in Division Two.
