Torquay v Dover TUE 6TH

Just got home too, angry and frustrated about the defeat, yes but I've just checked the BBC stats to remind myself as we peppered their goal in the second half. Their keeper managed, as much by luck as by judgement, to keep them in it. The rest is history. This was a completely different performance...

Fans Forum - Wednesday 30th September

Just got home, well attended meeting with the full board (I think) plus KN and Mel (speaking on finance). Wide range of questions, some quite searching, equally split between football matters and the wider well being of the club. KN impressed me with some of the things he said and I don't think that...

Torquay united fans united day (PAFC)

What a gesture!

Many, many thanks from me too, it was pleasing (if a little strange bearing in mind usual match day security) to be able to personally welcome Argyle fans as they arrived at my gate!

Can things get any worse?....... Yes.

Well, things have just got a bit better, TUFC and TUST are on speaking terms again! TUST has just put out a message to its members to report on a fruitful meeting between the parties. Steve Breed had alluded to this in his half time chat on the radio broadcast last night and it has come to pass.

Ne plus ultra

Re the Argyle snowy match, the gate was obviously 12807 ish, with emphasis on the 'ish' as there wouldn't have been any way of accurately counting the true attendance given that I, and possibly others, had to let people in away from the turnstiles with their mechanical counting mechanisms!

Ne plus ultra

Yes, I remember it well, it was, and still is, one of the largest league crowds in all my years on the gates. Was it an Easter fixture? I seem to remember it being on the Monday or Tuesday of Easter week so the crowd was swelled by exiled locals home for the Bank Holiday. My hands were probably sore...

Torquay United V Woking-Tue 18TH

Can I add my halfpenny's worth? In the first half we could/should have either had a penalty or a free kick with the last man elbowing Fisher out of the way and flattening him on the edge of the area. Both ref and lino found that one too difficult to give but immediately afterwards an innocuous foul ...

Now let's all pull together, fans, TUST, new board and (hopefully at least eleven) players!
