The Argyle Podcast

The long-haired left-back from Liverpool.

Or at least that was where he was born.

Jon Beswetherick lived out many kids dream and pulled on the shirt of the club he grew up supporting – the green short of Argyle.

Converted from a 43 goal a season striker in local junior football, to a marauding left-back, Bezzie established himself as a regular at Home Park during the late 1990s.

He was part of the Division Three championship winning season in 2001/02 and was somewhat of a cult figure at the club for his long hair, mazy runs and wicked left foot.

He swapped Devon for Yorkshire in the summer after promotion was achieved but didn’t have the same success at Sheffield Wednesday and eventually lost his love for the game.

This is the story of Jon Beswetherick.
