Torquay Utd players retained list shortly to be released

Sorry to lose Jamie Reid of course. Relieved to see we've hung onto Ben Whitfield. I'm surprised that Gary has not taken the chance to release a few more Players - under present disruptions, there might be plenty of chances to bring in improved signings in the next few months and now there'll be lit...

Corona Virus & Football

Looking forward to the day that football resumes, (next season maybe), Covid-19 will still be around. So these points from SUSD (and others) will remain important - " . . . stewards touching multiple people and that any goal celebrations by the players are non contact." Spitting should be ...

Corona Virus & Football

Greb I'd agree with that. Most Companies have 'Business Interruption' insurance BUT it's very unlikely that this would cover a Pandemic. Just my guess but it's likely that the season is over at this level.

Take care all.

Ade Azeez

That's right P78 - Wiki shows just 23 goals in 212 League appearances and 32 in 245 in all games. By no means prolific . . . yet . . . . Good luck to him.

Torquay United v Ebbsfleet United 25/1/20

Aggrey - I just can't agree with that. Many of our Players can score goals - maybe it's not happening recently BUT it's just up to the Manager to train and motivate the squad and send them out confident in a format that works . . . . A new striker is always good but it doesn't compensate for the tea...

Dockers thanks. But the contrast NL(N) and NL(S) is surprising is it not ?

Jerry - you are correct about Kettering - they have a lively history but never quite made it to the EFL. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kettering_Town_F.C. - as you can see, Kettering are now managed by a certain Paul Cox.

Re. NL (N), surprising to see so many ex EFL Clubs but none in NL (S) . . . .

Griff you prompted me to have a look at NL(S) and NL(N) . . . I couldn't spot any NL(S) Clubs with EFL pedigree but the NL(N) includes York City, Chester (City), Boston Utd, Darlington, Gateshead, Southport, Hereford, Kettering, Kiddersminster, and Bradford P.A. - all these Clubs ex EFL and some of ...

Aaron Nemane signs!

Indeed he (Aaron) has. Just MO but he's a flier and he has appetite. Good luck to him !

AFC Fylde vs Torquay United 18/01/20

Gary Johnson ''Armani has trained well in the last couple of days, and he will definitely be in the squad this weekend. He is one who we have missed''. Good news indeed !
