Torquay United Fans Forum

I think the population of Devon plus Cornwall would be sufficient. The area supports a number of Southern League sides, if you could recruit the best two or three from each you potentially have a competitive NLS side, although perhaps not one that would immediately push for promotion. Tiverton for e...

I’d love us to get a point but I don’t think we will, YTFC 2 - TUFC 1

TUFC 1 - Hampton 2

I just hope I’m wrong!

We know they like to play quite tightly, let’s hope we can just get over the line, TUFC 2 - Darts 1

Firstly, thanks again to Weymouth for their generous offer!

Secondly, Terras 1 - Torquay 2, just enough to get over the line!

May be CO has been using that well known accounting practice of straight line appreciation rather than depreciation!

Whoever comes in, I would hope, will do a drains up job on the financials!

I’m hoping for someone in the Mike Bateson mould, just done steady / sensible stewardship!

Many many thanks to Weymouth FC for this very generous gesture!

Message to CO, this is what football clubs mean to people!

Algernon without Mike Bateson operating him would have been more communicative than CO!

CO was no doubt using his cash on a “speculate to accumulate” basis, £5m spent is nothing if you get £10m, £15m back. We know he has no interest in football and this was purely a business venture! If he and his board and GJ had really cared, they’d have engaged with the fans, the town to a greater e...

2-1 TUFC win

It’s been hard work recently and the work will only get harder, but should the worst happen and we end up as Torquay 24 or whatever, there is hope. Look at Aldershot many years ago when the original entity folded, they started in what was then the Ryman sponsored Isthmian League Div 3, in front of v...

Much will fall on Jarvis’ shoulders, 2-2

This comes back to previous comments around the age and the day job of the semi pro in question, e.g. 18/22 or so on a min wage job who’s say at Buckland, Willand etc then you’d jump at the chance of a chance at a pro club, BUT say you are 22+ and have started a career job / trade then you may be le...

Re a couple of posts above, I’m sure the Worthing players are on far more than £100 a game, given their crowds over the last couple of years and local backers etc. There’ll be plenty of Southern / Isthmian league players on that and more. I would think (my opinion with no evidence) that for Worthing...
