Tonbridge Angels v Torquay United, March 16 3pm

Mellow...... I fully accept our football team aren't very good at football at the moment, but we all need to pull together. I don't understand why people would abandon ship in our desperate hour of need. Given that we were nigh on favourites to win this league in August, the season has been a compl...

Where's the money going?

Someone, an Administrator perhaps, needs to assess the situation and see what's possible in the very short term. 2 home games a month has achieved a £20k a week loss, so that's not the answer. Basically, the club is woefully overspending and that's OK as long as someone keeps covering the shortfall...

Farnborough v Torquay United Tue 20TH

:lol: BigDave certainly needs to calm down and have a word with his father to go! Anyway back to the real world, it's an all out team with Dawson and Jarvis starting and Stobbs also back on the bench! I will predict a win - Farmers 1-3 Torquay Oh and Gary Out! https://twitter.com/TUFC1899/status/17...

Farnborough v Torquay United Tue 20TH

If he means MONTHS then why does he say YEARS? Is it an attempt to show how clever he is - being wise before the event, rather than after it? (Perhaps he can answer for himself.) Poor humour is better than no humour at all and gallows humour appears to be what is necessary on this site with all the...

Braintree v Torquay Sat 17th Feb 2024

I get zero pleasure from watching GJ struggle post match, he obviously badly wants to correct things in the hope we'll make the playoffs and go up, it's a pride thing, and I get that, it can't be easy for him, no matter what line of work we're in, personal pride is important and integrity, once upo...

**23rd March v Hampton & Richmond** - Big Protest Day

Westlondon gull, carry on the petty comments and mind games, it just proves your arguement is weak, I have said all a long when complaining about the club,be careful what you wish for, you as you have taken on the mantle as agitator in chief you could be the one we talk about when the club is no mo...

Torquay United v St. Albans - 03rd February 2024.

Blimey. So he is going to drop 3 to 4 levels below his career level to come here. Mourinho to Dagenham and Redbridge or Barnet is more likely. We are 6th tier. Lee Johnson would be lucky to get a job at 6th tier level given his recent managerial record. Being a crap manager obviously runs in the fa...

Torquay United v St. Albans - 03rd February 2024.

So name me one manager that is going to come here full time??? A sacked ex football league manager??? Wouldn't come anywhere near this level. A upcoming manager going to give up his job and life to go full time. Ok then. Give me 3 names by full time?? Let's see how deluded you are. It's not the job...

Chippenham v Torquay Tue 23rd

collins has proven a poor signing, and tonight showed what a real lack of firepower we have upfront. if foyo has gone back that is another terrible piece of recruitment, WE NEED A STRIKER!! what's even more worrying is the pack lining up behind us, lose a few more and we will be 12/13th quite easil...

Ex-Gull watch

Just want to mention Lolas. Went from us to Oxford city and now at Crawley. His main claim to fame was being brought as a sub in our "heyday" in the Conference and then Our beloved leader brought him off after 10-15 minutes on the pitch. Scored a cracking goal seen on Match of the Day las...

Torquay United v Truro City, Boxing Day 3pm.

How and who are we going to sign on loan in this league. Nobody will come here to advance their career by playing part time players. No part time players are coming to sign or on loan to give up their jobs to earn less money by going full time. We are 6th tier. I think some people don't realise thi...

Torquay United v Truro City, Boxing Day 3pm.

Okay,we are currently a team of full time non first team players who are not regularly playing together, some of which are indeed first team players who might I add only a month or so ago were said by most that they are not fit to wear a tufc shirt, I.e. mcgavin, are playing “part time” teams who p...

George Edwards

Let clear up a few points, I was standing beside the guy asking good questions. I thank him for this. George confined a few things. The new ground is still planned. The finances are very good. It became clear getting players to relocate is a big issue. As others have pointed out, as the group got l...
