Re: Torquay United vs Oxford Utd 17/08/13
Frustrating one today. The most positive thing I can say about us at the moment is that we're not that far away from being a mediocre side. There are some signs of promise, and if certain things had went our way (Ball's shot that hit the post straight after their opener, the disallowed free-kick) w...

Re: Torquay United v Southend United - 17/11/12
Poor yesterday, but I'm sorry, but I don't subscribe to the notion we're suddenly in crisis. Think it was a freak result, one that happens every now and then when you face a good team with a big budget like Southend, and though we're in a bit of a rut at the moment we'll ultimately be fine. Don't t...

Lee Hughes
Probably nothing in this whatsoever but I saw Lee Hughes (yes, *that* Lee Hughes) out jogging by the seafront earlier.
I'm guessing he's just holidaying, and I doubt we can afford him but having a look around it seems other clubs are being linked with him.

Re: Has O'Kane Gone Yet?
Said it on a previous thread and I'll say it again here - he'd have been an utter fool to turn Crawley down. Who on earth would turn down the chance to play at a higher level for more money? The fact it's Crawley and we have a petty spat with them wouldn't and shouldn't enter into his mind. Some pe...

Re: Alarm Bells - Eunan to Crawley
Why wouldnt he go to Crawley? More money, football at a higher level? Get your head out of the clouds everyone, if Crawley offer him an attractive package and the price is right, he'll be off. And I wouldn't begrudge him that move for one minute - he's been fantastic for us. Regardless of what you ...

Re: Football Manager 2012..
Having a ridiculous time of it with Torquay. Managed to go up automatically first time of asking playing a kamikaze style of attacking football Kevin Keegan would be proud of, and just carried it on in L1. Had a sticky start but managed to turn it round and after a bit of wheeling and dealing in Ja...

Re: TUFC v Hereford United, Football League 2, 29/10/11
I disagree, I actually think it's more to do with Lathrope being played in the holding role, a number of times today he covered for our defenders and broke play up just in front of them. In doing that it allows Mansell and O'Kane to play further forward and for us to retain possession which in turn...

Taiwoeful.
As an aside, am I the only one who finds him completely hilarious? I actually find his crapness amusing. Definite cult hero.

Re: Torquay v AFC Wimbledon Match Thread
Crisis? What crisis? Ok, granted, it's only one win, but hopefully that shuts people up for a bit. I had absolutely no doubt whatsoever we'd win last night and although we started the match slowly, the first goal from Stevens gave us plenty of confidence and a quickfire double before HT saw us wrap...

Re: League 2: Southend United vs Torquay United
Jesus wept, it's only October. Win our next two games (and lets face it, they are very winnable) and we're looking at the playoffs/top half.
We'll be absolutely fine this season. Just need to get some belief back - I've seen enough of us this season to suggest we're good enough to stay up.

Re: Chris Mcphee-A man management test for lingy
Howe in for McPhee, and Bodin/Stevens in for Macklin. McPhee did OK on Saturday but I'm pretty sure we would have scored more with a fully-fit Howe playing - he's a much better player. It's unfortunate for McPhee but Cobblers away are a different kettle of fish to Macc at home and we should play ou...

Re: Torquay vs Crawley
Going by your 'best forward line in the division' comment, your Ellis argument doesn't hold water considering Burnley are a decent Championship side. And besides, it was a PSF - a glorified training match where tackling is essentially outlawed. It means feck all. Ellis is good enough at this level ...
