Plymouth manager Peter Reid spoke of his delight after securing the services of Tottenham goalkeeper David Button on a season-long loan. Button, 21, will add competition for the club's number one jersey, with French veteran Romain Larrieu also in the ranks at Home Park. Reid had been looking to land Birmingham stopper Colin Doyle but with the deal appearing to be a non-starter, he swooped to sign Button. He told the club's official website: "I have spoken to Harry (Redknapp) about him and Tony Parks, the goalkeeping coach, and he comes highly recommended. "He has been away on tour with Tottenham and played games so I'm delighted to have him. He is competition for Romain in the nets." On the failed attempt to sign Doyle, Reid added: "I would have liked to bring in Doyle as well but circumstances meant I couldn't - I wanted to have three. He is a really good goalkeeper but that's the way it goes."
