Former Mansfield Town loanee Oliver Irow on fire with new club Plymouth Argyle
Oliver Irow is enjoying his time with new club Plymouth Argyle following his summer loan move to the south coast.
The exciting forward spent the second half of last season with Mansfield Town, as he joined Tottenham Hotspur teammate George Abbott in making the loan move to the One Call Stadium.
This season, the Spurs boys are back in League One but will be playing against each other instead.
While Abbott has re-joined Stags, Irow is making waves with Plymouth, who are sitting nicely up in third in the league table as things stand.
The 20-year-old will play in the green of Argyle for the full 2026/27 season and he’s hit the ground running since his arrival.
Irow has four goals so far for Plymouth, which started with a strike on his debut against Coventry in the Carabao Cup. Since then, he’s bagged three in League One, all coming in his last two appearances.
His tally of three goals in just five appearances is only one fewer than he managed in his first 17 appearances in League One with Mansfield Town last season.
Irow scored a brace against Port Vale in his first match for Stags back in January – a tradition he’s clearly keen on keeping alive. However, he didn’t find the back of the net again until late in April.
Irow’s efforts for Plymouth included a scorcher against Barnsley, which came just 18 seconds into the clash and could well be a club record.
The forward will also be enjoying the link-up with Will Evans, who signed for Plymouth Argyle this summer as well. The Welshman departed Stags on a permanent move to the Pilgrims, signing a two-year contract after opting to pursue a fresh challenge away from Mansfield.
