Tributes to a beloved 100-year-old Plymouth Argyle F.C. supporter lead this week’s edition of the Plymouth Chronicle, as readers across the city remember Southway resident Charlie Trevethan following his death aged 100.
Charlie was believed to be one of Argyle’s oldest supporters and became known to generations of fans after sharing memories of watching club legend Jack Leslie play during the 1930s. His lifelong connection to Argyle prompted an outpouring of tributes from supporters across Plymouth. (P3)
Chris Girdler added: “Charlie was a very special person and he will be sadly missed not only by his family and friends but by the many people whose lives he touched.”
That same sense of community runs throughout this week’s edition, with a local ukulele group delivering a special tribute that struck a chord with readers across the city. (P13)
