He made 279 appearances for the club in all competitions.[2] Logan played in Argyle's first game in the Football League, as the Southern League Division One clubs were absorbed to form the Football League Third Division for the 1920–21 season,[3] and went on to play 228 Football League games. He made his last appearance for Argyle in December 1928[2] and joined Yeovil & Petters United the following year.[2]
