I think the fact that Sturrock never managed Plymouth in the Championship says a fair bit aswell. He hardly did the business with Sheffield Wednesday in the 2nd tier either.

To be sent packing from your 'spiritual home' must be tough.

Oh hang on, though.  He's got another spiritual home in Dundee.  He'll probably move there.

Exactly, he's Dundee United through and through - the guy paints his office tangerine for goodness sake Smiley

Precisely.  So all the guff we had from Argyle fans when he went back there is now sounding hilarious.

'Luggy's coming home' etc.  There was even one toss pot giving progress updates on his drive down to Plymouth to meet their Chairman ('He's passing Ivybridge' etc.)

Well 2 years down the line, he's succeeded in returning them to approximately their correct place in the pecking order.  Job done, Agent Sturrock.  Congratulations.  You may now return home.

he settled in plymouth and the family home is there and it's where he'll retire.
although his management is open too question i suppose,his reasons for retuning there are perfectly reasonable.
i dont blame him for going back there at all

My point was that he's Dundee United through and through, he has an affection for Argyle no question.

I've got no major issues with his reason as to why he left Swindon. But Plymouth fans set themselves up for this as they were irrationally hating Leicester for taking their new messiah Ian Holloway from them at the time.
