Torquay United v Hamptom & Richmond Borough Sat23rd (Devon Day)

Don't think I've ever walked away from Plainmoor feeling so relieved, having seen the team win a game they simply had to win, against one of the form teams in the division right now. I've been critical of the so called 'old guard' all season, and I believe rightly so, they would have cost the club a...

Torquay United v Hamptom & Richmond Borough Sat23rd (Devon Day)

Who questioned my suggestion last week that Hall could not play at centre back ? 🤔 Old brigade done us proud today. Better organised, strong challenges a Big win which not many of us expected. Well done to all 👏👏 That was me, just merely expressed an opinion, having seen the last experiment to try ...

Torquay United v Hamptom & Richmond Borough Sat23rd (Devon Day)

Aaron Downes came over and spoke to some of us before the game. He said that because of the M25 closure the cost of a coach was about the same as a hotel. They asked the players which they’d prefer and they chose cars plus hotel rather than coach. So the club still found the cost of travel but for ...

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

How long is a club allowed to remain in administration? A set time or until the administrator feels there is not going to be a new owner??? And at that point we start a phoenix club at the bottom of the pyramid? I believe it's 18 months or not more than 2 consecutive seasons, but must be remembered...

Gone with this one early as title says, we have Devon Day at Plainmoor Saturday, it is reported that a number of both Plymouth and Exeter supporters are coming in support of our club, what sort of numbers who knows, and while we are all thankful and grateful to any fan from another club that lends t...

No administrator worth their salt is going to come into a football club and cut playing staff, for a start if TUFC does fully enter administration then 'the football creditor rule' applies meaning all contracted players owed money become creditors of the club, no1 in order of priority, can only pres...

Tonbridge Angels v Torquay United, March 16 3pm

We saw Chris Hargreaves tried at CB didn't work, if Hall isn't fit for 90 mins certainly wouldn't be putting him at CB.

However do agrre regarding Tomlinson, and the point about a return to a back 4.

Tonbridge Angels v Torquay United, March 16 3pm

What's required now is nothing but a siege mentality. Whilst I hope for a complete new beginning I do have a degree of sympathy for Downes, what's gone on before he became interim manager may not be totally all his fault, we don't know how hamstrung Downes was under GJ, how many, if any of Downes id...

Torquay United v Taunton Town TUE 12th.

To follow up on that, there is a much bigger picture in play here. Last night I stood on the popside with my son and a close friend, been long time since I felt that embarrassed and ashamed of the teams performance, I think all of those who didn't follow last nights events either on the radio or liv...

Torquay United v Taunton Town TUE 12th.

We are in dire trouble on and off the pitch, teams have good periods and bad, but if you support a club you stick with it through all.. It’s obvious we need a total restart next season. I expect if we still exist, there will be only 3 or 4 players/staff still here from this season. Anyhow, I’ll be ...

Torquay United v Taunton Town TUE 12th.

Right onto tonight's performance, how does any of us pick the bones of that ? being honest Tomlinson and Collins deserve 0/10, I'd give the rest of the outfield 1/10 the only one I'll let off is Halstead what's any goalkeeper supposed to do when all 10 players in front are playing so badly. I've enj...
