Potential Buyers
I think I found it? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68512186 The TUST said at that time that it was unlikely they would make a bid. I assume now that there are no other suitable bids and it's either us running it, or going bust and to start again lower down the leagues as a phoenix club? Maybe...

Yeovil Town v Torquay Utd Friday 29th 3pm
fully expect us to lose handily, but this is honestly the exact situation where we'll get a result at Huish Park before being terrible on Monday and losing to Weston-Super-Mare
Yeovil 1-2 Torquay
Yeovil 1-2 Torquay

Staying Up - Relegation Battle
It's funny how fans see things differently, for me 17 losses would suggest this leagues been tougher than we thought it would be, even some of those wins in the 1st ten games we rode our luck, Aveley away, Braintree at home etc, Truro at home battered us, even Slough at home, Aveley, Taunton recent...

Torquay United v Hamptom & Richmond Borough Sat23rd (Devon Day)
Pretty sure it's not Osborne paying. His statement said he could no longer fund the club. It seems apparent that all of the revenue of from the home games since the announcement - plus whatever has been donated directly to the club - will be used to pay wages come the end of the month (don't know th...

Staying Up - Relegation Battle
We are not yet in administration. When, as seems likely, we are the situation may change. But we don't know what the loan or financial arrangements are. Nelson went back almost staright away. Personally I'd be glad for Arkell-Boyd and WJD to stay as long as possible as they are two of our better pl...

Torquay United v Dartford. Saturday 9th March 2024.
The energy and confidence early 2nd half, was refreshing for all to see, after to be fair a lacklustre first half. Many good performers and hopefully the beginning of a run of the form we will need to sneak into playoffs. Good to see Leroy, Southend away one of our clubs greatest days. Except the p...

Points deduction
I really don't get the sudden decision to go the administration route. Why not just put the club up for sale without the added risk to the football club? Could be two things. Or both; Osborne didn't want to put any more money in. Doing the notice of intent for administration allows him to say "...

Points deduction
Ironic Gateman though that we are being penalised yet again because of the actions of these ‘fly me to moon’ rocket clubs. We get beaten time and again by these type of teams with their swelled budget and now because of their reckless actions lo and behold we find ourselves losing out once again. Y...

New Revenue ideas?
Biggest thing we can do to increase revenue is to get more people through the turnstile. Easiest way for that is for the team to start winning again. A little more quality on the playing staff would pay for itself and more. The players are out there, some may only want to be part time and we would ...

New Revenue ideas?
Having been left somewhat red-faced by Bristol Gull and his seemingly endless ideas for new revenue, I thought I'd better put my thinking cap on. So today I emailed an American billionaire, because if Wrexham can do it why can't we? This person fits the criteria perfectly, being a very nice person ...

Osborne gone!
I've got to agree with the past few fans who've posted on here, CO isn't a hero nor is he some sort of saviour, I won't believe it, I'm not in denial, he's probably done this gesture simply because he was never going to realistically see this money again, for tax reasons, or something else, it woul...

Ghost tickets
I'm not sure. I always felt they should use the number of people who actually go through the turnstiles - that being the *attendance* - but I know some teams/leagues like to count the number of tickets sold...presumably because it makes seem more impressive. Those numbers would then include ST holde...
