Potential Buyers

Thanks Dave, if we can keep to the Football more importantly address the current Torquay position that will be positive. My understanding is that the Club is not in Administration but has filed for protection in the court which I believe has an initial seven day window which can be renewed by the D...

Osborne gone!

Ex chairman Dave Phillips have posted on another forum that Pete Masters is interested in buying the club but it has to happen before an admin event. Make of that what you will.

Playoff Final Vs Hartlepool at Ashton Gate

Hartlepool fan here. Firstly. What a fantastic game and an incredible advert for non-league football. Secondly. I think we got away with one today. At least one of your disallowed goals should of stood and the penalty looked dubious too. But we have both been in the lower leagues long enough to hav...

Playoff Final Vs Hartlepool at Ashton Gate

Does anyone know of the parking arrangements or places to park close to the ground and what pub people are going to before the game? Don't know about pubs but there appears to be very little parking available. I know a few fans who are having to book private parking (peoples driveways etc) and it's...

Time to go Mr Nicholson... POOR

[/quote] While Blisset was at the club, Nicholson decided to make his "marquee" signing a striker who he doesn't fancy. McDonald was sold early and he had adequate time to find a replacement. He brought in McGinty. He also had the chance to resign a midfielder who made it abundantly clear ...

Time to go Mr Nicholson... POOR

Absolutely nonsensical. I criticised the main area I feel Nico is getting it wrong just this week. What I can't do is slag a man who has had the spine of his team ripped out, Angus sold, Luke Young out injured after another long lay-off, and Blissett sold. He's lost the spine of his team and you ca...

Torquay v Southport Saturday 29th October 3pm

Even by National League standards, that was sub-standard football by two sub-standard sides who will be struggling against relegation if they play like that, plus sub-standard refereeing. A dreadful afternoon. Congratulations to the 400 who decided to give it a miss. Today was as bad as anything we...

Not a single player deserves pass mark and in fact, we should award minus points for this week.

North Ferriby v TUFC Match thread

This must be the lowest number of match and post-match contributions ever. Talking of past players.....I watched Whitby Town vs Corby Town today (we won 1-0) and noticed that Corby had two ex-United players (or loanees) in their ranks. Both were poor: the first was called O'Neil Odofin (slow and po...
