Potential Buyers

I think you'll find the the vocal minority are a few people slagging of TUST at every opportunity.

Bryn Consortium Take-Over

All of which is absolutely true. But, they haven't got the money, and have got a publicity seeking mouthpiece who is not following the non disclosure agreements Do you know what is contained in the NDAs and do you know how much money TUST have currently and how much they could raise in a share issue?

Bryn Consortium Take-Over

Anything involving TUST will be a complete disaster That’s a strange comment to make about a very professionally run organisation, with membership of about a third our average attendance (much higher than most trusts) and with the interest of the club and its fans foremost. I really don’t understan...

Next season.

Play Off final is Braintree v Worthing.
Maidstone lost to Worthing today so will be in our league again next season and I would imagine will be favourites along with Boreham Wood to go up.

Torquay United v H&W Sat 20th Apr 3pm

Excellent performance. Could easily have scored more. Credit to Havant for giving it a go too. Nice to see two teams attack. Good to see Booth play so well and the two youngsters come on and fit in well. And a word for the ref. He was excellent. Best this season I think. Not sure why no added time f...

Taunton Town v Torquay United Tues 16 April KO 19.45.

A deserved win. We played some good football in the first half and battled well to keep them out after their early second half goal. Good thing they missed that open goal though.
Another to add to the list of most memorable matches I’ve been to in 45 years of watching Torquay.

That would be like being told you weren't going to be charged for murder but manslaughter instead, and then finding out you were going to share a cell with Hannibal Lecter! We know that a million a season is barely enough to keep our heads above water, so how the hell are the trust gonna manage on ...

That would be the TUST consortium bid.

Taunton Town v Torquay United Tues 16 April KO 19.45.

If we beat Taunton we will have 50 points and better goal difference. If Taunton beat us & Weston they will have 48. Hemel have 49. Whatever the result on Taunton v Hemel one will have less than 50 points. A draw at Taunton & win over Havant will see us safe. Defeat to Taunton and we need Ta...

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

The extra games in this week’s fixtures haven’t really fallen well for us. Taunton & Eastbourne both play Weston who are one of only five teams with nothing to play for. Taunton have had the same 3 day break as us before we play Tuesday. They play Weston Thursday but Weston will also have played...

Taunton Town v Torquay United Tues 16 April KO 19.45.

I'd be very happy with a draw.

There is some heavy rain forecast for Monday but Tuesday is said to be dry. Hopefully there will be no problem with the game going ahead but if the venue is to be changed I hope we'll be told on Monday. I've already lost one hotel cost at Taunton.

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

Sorry there’s an error in my post that I can’t edit - it should say Taunton play Hemel not Weston so both could not exceed 50 points.

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

It is a worry. I didn't feel it was a complete lack of effort but not the fight that one would expect in a relegation battle. Plus tactics again - long ball with one shortish forward against tall defenders just didn't work. I fear we will lose at Taunton who are clearly up for a fight. Surely we can...
