“He does it…Marino Keith!”

From Peterhead to Plymouth, Marino Keith was a hero in Green and part of the crop of Argyle players who won two championships.

Growing up in Aberdeenshire he made his professional bow later than most. After a strong performance in the Highland Leagues for Fraserburgh, he got his dream move to boyhood club Dundee United.

After spells at Falkirk and Livingston, Marino ventured about as south as south goes and joined Argyle in the November of 2001.

In his first season he helped Argyle clinch promotion from Division Three, scoring in the clincher at Rochdale.

He was never prolific but was a scorer of important goals at important times. None more so than on a Tuesday night in December 2003, poking home the winner against Swindon Town – cue incredible scenes in the away end.

Unfortunately, injury cut his career short but Marino, who had spent hours on the team coach studying computing, now is the managing director of Xeretec.

This is the story of Marino Keith.
