Ivor Jones Insurance was the next sponsor and their agreement with the club lasted for two seasons. [[Abbey (bank)|National & Provincial]] (now merged with [[Abbey (bank)|Abbey National]]) were sponsors for the 1986β87 season before the club signed an agreement with the ''[[Sunday Independent (England)|Sunday Independent]]'' which would last for five seasons. Rotolok Holdings plc became the club's major sponsor in 1992, which was owned by then Pilgrims chairman [[Dan McCauley]]. This lasted for six seasons before the club linked up with local newspaper the ''[[The Herald (Plymouth Evening Herald)|Evening Herald]]''. Between 2002 and 2011 the club was sponsored by Cornish [[pasty]]-makers [[Ginsters]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.footballshirtculture.com/Sponsorship/ginsters-extend-plymouth-argyle-shirt-sponsorship.html|title=Ginsters extend Plymouth Argyle sponsorship|date=19 April 2009|publisher=Football Shirt Culture|access-date=9 August 2015}}</ref> In 2011 with the club still in administration, local timber merchant WH Bond Timber sponsored Argyle's kits at first for the [[2011β12 Plymouth Argyle F.C. season|2011β12 season]] and until the end of the [[2013β14 Plymouth Argyle F.C. season|2013β14 season]].
