The Football League has named Plymouth Argyle’s former Irish International defender Graham Coughlan as the second Division player of the season, after his defensive display for the Second Division Champions.
The 29-year-old has been a defensive rock in Argyle's title-winning campaign and also contributed seven goals.
League spokesman Ian Christon said:
"He has made a huge contribution in almost every game, whether that be scoring goals or snuffing out the opposition.
"Every successful team has a strong base and Coughlan has provided the foundation for Argyle to build on."
A former Bray Wanderer’s player, Graham moved across the water in October 1995 and joined up with Blackburn Rovers where he spend three and a half years.
With a loan spell at Swindon during his time at Rovers’, Graham then made a permanent move North of the Border to Livingston where he spent over two years before heading back to England and signing for Argyle in the summer of 2001.
