Let’s not get too carried away

I do understand the point which you are making, but I think that today is probably not the time to make it.

Let’s not get too carried away

There were still 21 other teams from the region competing and Torquay deservedly won the title. It had to be earned and was not handed to the Gulls on a plate - goals still had to be scored and defended at the same time. I totally agree with Wokingham Gull and Dannyrvtufc4life - enjoy the achievemen...

Well said Wokingham Gull - good to see another fan just 3 miles away in the town where my wife worked until last year.

Congratulations from Forest Green Rovers !!!

I am fine thanks Dave, though my trips to football over the last 3 or 4 years were largely limited by work and other commitments. What a fantastic season for Torquay and what a good move to get rid of Gary Owers and get such a superb manager in. Let's hope he stays with you for many seasons. What a ...

Congratulations from Forest Green Rovers !!!

My pleasure Jane. I wasn't able to make it to any Gulls games this season (only seen FGR once this season), but have now retired, so much more time on my hands now. I have had a huge smile on my face all afternoon following the scores and especially pleasing to see Woking losing at Chelmsford so tha...

Congratulations from Forest Green Rovers !!!

Having a huge soft spot for The Gulls, I want to be the first to congratulate you on a brilliant National League South title win and top marks to GJ, all the players, staff and the fans. It is so good to see Torquay United on an upward trajectory again after all the trials and tribulations of the la...

Final Game - North Ferriby @ 12:15

We've been invited out to lunch by some friends tomorrow, but even so, the nerves will be kicking in for me, and even as an FGR fan, I have such a soft spot for TUFC that I will be very upset if they go down. Our match against York City is impossible to predict sadly - we have been so inconsistent, ...

Dover Athletic v Torquay United 22/4/17

What a great result and my fingers are firmly crossed for TUFC next weekend. However, do be careful - we at FGR managed to lose 1-0 at home to North Ferriby United and also lost 2-0 away at Southport, so the teams at the bottom won't just roll over. Mind you, FGR give us all as many anxious moments ...

Bromley FC v Torquay United

I think technically we might be safe if we win, not sure if this is right or I'm massively confused. Next week Boreham Wood (44 pts) play Guiseley (46 pts), so if Boreham Wood win, they'll go up to 47 points leaving Guiseley on 46 points which leaves them 4 behind us going into the final day. Likew...

All it needs is for Aldershot to equalise and the other games to stay the way they are - then safety is mathematically secure. :scarf:
