THERE are plans to have a huge mural painted on the side of Plymouth’s Life Centre in tribute to commentator, journalist and Plymouth Argyle superfan Gordon Sparks. An application has been submitted for the large image of the “voice of Argyle” to be painted on the east outer wall of the sports centre, facing Sparksy’s beloved Home Park stadium.
The BBC commentator and presenter, who also wrote for The Herald, died in October 2022, aged 61, after fighting cancer. Plymouth artist Si Nye launched a campaign for a memorial mural last year and has raised £2,345.
