New Signings for the 2023-2024 Season

Dan Martin if fit would be a good squad player if not starter when fully fit but it would need to be a monthly contract - Law on the other hand scored for Plymouth in the Fa Cup and when he got a run in the side was very solid as a full back or left wing back, you wont get much better than that in t...

Gary Johnson, stick or twist?

I would also put the name of Paul Trollope forward. Back living in the Bay and an experienced player and manager - worth considering!

Keating Signs!

I have it on good authority that it is between Torquay and Yeovil to sign Keating with both offering similar terms and Keating preferring to return to Torquay. Not sure its a good signing to be honest as struggled last time in the NL after a decent spell when in the NLS but he would certainly add so...

Can We Make the Play Offs?

Yes Yeovil are a poor side! I appreciate that their form was good going into the Christmas period but if you attended both games you would have to concede that they are very poor and very basic in their approach. Having also seen the likes of Halifax / Notts County / Chesterfield, Yeovil and Torquay...

Can We Make the Play Offs?

Taking solely the last 5/6 games and the loss of Armstrong and Sparkes, a play off spot would need 4-5 signings which just isnt going to happen with the budget Gary Johnson has this season. Yeovil on Boxing Day was a good win however having subsequently seen the away game, Yeovil are a poor side and...

Good Luck From The Gas

I think a simple ' Please can you beat Wycombe on Saturday to save our backsides ' would have sufficed! I am sure the Torquay players and management will want to make it 3 wins on the spin and finish off the bottom but the Home form is dreadful!

Burton game off?

It has rained moderately for the last hour but is now drizzle and clearing again with sunshine over Paignton and blue skies! Fingers crossed it stays and thats the end of it for a few hours at least!

Burton game off?

Predicted shower is about to arrive looking at the mass of grey cloud heading over the Bay from Paignton!! Hopefully short and not too sharp. A friend of mine at the club didnt seem too optimistic for the game if there is a sustained period of rain :(

Stay away rain!

Burton game off?

No problem. BBC Forecast has just been updated and now shows as being pretty clear until 4 with potential showers after so I would say we have a game on our hands tonight!

Rendell and Benyon

I do agree with the signings appearing to look like a last chance gamble by Hargreaves but he does know what they are like having played with them and they have both played at a decent level. I think the one thing that should be guaranteed with these signings is hungry players as having been without...

Burton game off?

It is sunny on Torquay harbourside at the moment and has been dry save for a very light 5 minute shower at 9. Forecast is ok with sunshine and showers which hopefully will miss us anyway looking at the radar. With the groundstaff being able to work on the pitch all day you would think that the game ...

Re: Trust

I think all fans have given Knill support from the time that he took over but serious questions now need to be asked as to his suitability for the role. The constant changing of players, formations and tactics are somewhat baffling and I think it is safe to say that he does not have a clear idea of ...
