How does a lad from Staffordshire end up an Argyle fan?

Well, a series of curious events including a panini sticker book, a drab draw between Stoke City and Brighton and Hove Albion and the colour Green led BBC Radio Devon Commentator to fall in love with Argyle.

Despite not being able to get to games as much as he would have liked, Drew's affection for all things Argyle only grew stronger. When his career in broadcasting led him to the stage that football reporting was a viable option, the thought of being able to commentate on his team dropped into his head.

Just like his hero, Gordon Sparks, Drew fulfilled that dream and despite some cold nights in Manchester, being haunted by Captain Pugwash and the debacle at Accrington, the highs outlay the bad and he is living the dream.

This is the story of Drew Savage.
