Bryn Consortium Take-Over

Great news about the Bryn Consortium. Can’t wait for the transfer of ownership to be completed. Look forward to hearing their plans for the club.

Truro v Torquay to be played at Meadow Park, Gloucester

Massive 3 points gained tonight.

Loved National League TV (and lense wipe). Great to have no commentary, the audio made me feel like I was on the Pop side - well done Yellow Army.

Points deduction

Looks like good news:
- there are people seriously interesting in buying the club - so hopefully won’t fold.
- there’s an extension to the time available to complete the deal and avoid points deduction.

Clark Osborne/Jim Parker Interview

Like Knightmaregull I think that the council are key to this. Talk of a meeting with the council is concerning because the sight of money to councillors (for the freehold) could be attractive to them so that they can splash some cash on the promises they have made. The biggest motivation for council...

Clark Osborne/Jim Parker Interview

I think it would be a shame to leave Plainmoor but worth it, depending on new location, if it gave the club financial stability. Does a new ground with income generating facilities provide an income stream to TUFC. OR Does a new ground with income generating facilities provide an income stream to a ...

Re: Torquay United v Dover Sat 20th

Great to get a win and 3 points.

Not a great game but after recent defeats I was pleased to get a win.

Referee must be a relative of Simon Mather not to spot one or two penalties.

Let’s hope there are no new injuries and we can improve the standard on Tuesday.

Torquay United v Hemel Hempstead Sat 16 Dec 3PM KO

Would be interesting to see the video (with audio). How much time elapsed between the whistle and Brett kicking the ball (?)
Shame one of the better refs (v low standard) based on previous appearances. You know the ref has lost the plot when he reprimands a ball boy … in NLS !

Torquay United v Weymouth FC Tuesday 5th Dec 19.45 KO

Great three points. I thought Weymouth were a nasty team who clearly targeted Tom Lapslie. The two footed challenge by their No. 6 on Tom could have easily been a red card. Another very poor referee, I know it’s NLS but the standard of refereeing surely can’t be this bad. I thought the team played w...

Stadium fan ownership

Back to school days … before Westlands when Westhill and Homelands were separate, Westhill had Windmill Hill and Homelands Quinta. Quinta is the prime housing site

TUFC V Yeovil (FA Trophy) - 18th Nov 3pm

Great to get a win. Enjoyable game - I hadn’t planned to go but changed my mind at lunchtime, glad I did.

Some good performances from our players.

Dreadful Ref.

Game changed when Nouble came off the bench but we held on for the win.

Boycott Bath

I’m not keen on a boycott - I want to support the team. Should we have a song to demonstrate the long-term solidarity of supporters and our club TUFC - excluding owners, managers etc (?) How about, ‘we’re Torquay United - we’ll never be defeated’ (might take a bit of explaining !), or, ‘ we shall no...
