Matt Kennedy:" Why I was sad to leave Plymouth Argyle"

Former Plymouth Argyle loanee Matty Kennedy made his return to the Westcountry last night by impressing in Cardiff City's 6-2 win over Tavistock before paying tribute to the Green Army.
Kennedy arrived at Home Park from the Bluebirds on the last day of the January transfer window and was an instant hit, scoring in three of his first four games for the Pilgrims.
In total, he notched five goal in 17 appearances and played a key role as the Pilgrims finished runners-up in League Two, earning them promotion to League One.
And it is a time that 22-year-old Kennedy looks back upon with great fondness.
"I was sad to leave Argyle at the end of last season as I thought I had done my job there and it was great to be involved in the promotion celebrations," he said.
"I feel I had a great bond with the fans at Argyle who were really great and played their part in getting the team up.
"Now I must concentrate on doing my best to win a place at Cardiff and hopefully the boss (Warnock) is pleased with the way I have been shaping up."
Kennedy is expected to play some part against the Pilgrims when the two clubs lock horns at Home Park on Friday. Kick-off is at 7pm.
