Career
Dargle was born in Liverpool, England and played college soccer for the University of Akron from 1975 to 1977. He began his professional career in 1978 with the Cleveland Cobras of the American Soccer League before moving to the Detroit Express of the North American Soccer League in 1979. He played two outdoor seasons and one indoor season with the Express before moving to the Washington Diplomats in 1981. The Dips folded at the end of the season and on October 6, 1981, the Seattle Sounders selected Dargle first in the dispersal draft.[1] He finished his NASL career with the Sounders in 1983. When the Sounders folded at the end of the 1983 season, the Vancouver Whitecaps selected Dargle in the dispersal draft, but he did not sign with that team. Instead, he turned to indoor soccer with the Cleveland Force of the Major Indoor Soccer League with whom he played five seasons. On June 16, 1988, the Force released Dargle, along with several other players, as the team folded.[2] Dargle remained in Cleveland after no other MISL team signed him. In the summer of 1989, Dargle was signed by the expansion Cleveland Crunch after a successful trial. On June 20, 1990, Dargle became a free agent when the Crunch allowed his contract to lapse.[3] He then moved to the Canton Invaders of the American Indoor Soccer Association. He became the head coach during the 1990–91 season and remained so until resigning in July 1992.[4] He continued to play until the end of the 1992–93 season. In January 1996, he returned to the Invaders on a fifteen-day contract.[5]
