Then I realised that Neil Dewsnip, who does a brilliant job as Director of Football at Argyle, was Rooney’s mentor and father figure when he was a kid at Everton. That makes the rumour a little more credible. |

With Rooney at Argle and Neil Warnock associated with Torquay football in Devon should get a bit more national coverage.

So Argyle have now been managed by England’s two most capped players - Peter Shilton and Wayne Rooney.
TUFC have now been managed by Argyle’s two highest appearance makers - Kevin Hodges and Paul Wotton (Wotton joint second with Sammy Black).
In Neil Warnock’s first game as Compo’s advisor at Torquay, Hodges scored the winner past player-manager Shilton as Torquay knocked Argyle out of the Autoglass Trophy.
