Plymouth Argyle manager Carl Fletcher has moved to strengthen his squad ahead of the 2012-13 season with the signings of striker Rhys Griffiths and midfielder Johnny Gorman.
Welshman Griffiths, 32, has been on trial at Home Park during the close season from League of Wales side Port Talbot and is putting his career as a firefighter on hold in a bid to have one last shot at playing in the Football League.
Prior to his move to the Pilgrims, he had topped the scoring charts in the Welsh Premier League side for seven seasons in a row, firstly for Port Talbot and then for six years running with Llanelli.
Gorman, 19, who has won nine caps for Northern Ireland, joins on a youth loan from Wolves until January 6th 2013, following in the footsteps of Ashley Hemmings, who came to Home Park on loan from Wolves last season.
He also joins a number of Northern Ireland internationals who have represented the Pilgrims in recent seasons, including Tony Capaldi, Damien Johnson, Rory Patterson and current squad member Warren Feeney.
Despite only making one senior for Wolves, Gorman made his Northern Ireland debut on 26th May 2010 in a friendly against Turkey and made his competitive debut later that year against Slovenia in a Euro 2012 qualifier.
His sole senior appearance for Wolves came last March when he made a substitute appearance again Norwich City in the Premier League.
