I do not the intimate details of the clubs finances either, but, when Steve Breed says the club was close to having the chains wrapped around the front door, I can only read between the lines and realise the club was in deep, deep trouble. You of course may know more about the relegations regards y...

Steve it's the only way, no matter how poor. £250,000 would have be the actual cost to the club to retain a cat 3 status, £100,000 for a cat 4 set-up, if we want a competitive first team, how else ? who was going to fund it ? Completely understand where you're coming from, and I obviously don't hav...

Personally, I would be behind any kind of 'kick and rush' long ball tactics if it got us results. And as has been previously mentioned; this tactic will likely suit the limited budget we have available and to be honest - this can be an incredibly effective tactic at this level, where pitches aren't ...

I couldn't offically say it in this article... but I think this so-called 'watered down' youth system is an incredibly poor effort to try and retain some of the talented youth players in our youth system. http://www.westernmorningnews.co.uk/Torquay-United-reveal-new-youth-development-plans/story-267...

Pleased with Cox's positive spin on the reduced playing budget situation. Hargreaves was more of a 'moaner' when it came to discussing the club's finances. It's good to have a manager who sees it as an opportunity and he seems to be thriving on the challenge that this reduced playing budget gives hi...

Yes, there's going to be some football to be played! So this is the thread where we officially return to talking about football and in particular, the first team squad at TUFC. I'm aware there's already a transfer rumours thread so let's keep this thread to talk about the players we already have sig...

Brief history of Cox's career to date.

Interesting footnote in there - Other than his last half-season with Mansfield, EVERY time he has managed a club, they have finished higher than the year before.

Terrific news. This is what Edwards will have at his desk on Monday...

We NEED to keep the youth system. It is just starting to show its potential and it's suddenly at risk. It's folly to sink this much time and money in to the system only to can it when it is just starting to tick in to action. I also have a rare criticism for TUST on this. Why have they ruled out hel...

Never have a curry when your club is in the midst of a takeover.

They've stumped up the cash to pay off the conference!

Hopefully they can take over soon!

Despite that generous price drop from the board...

Best Keeper I've seen in a TUFC shirt. Great signing for Exeter, and a sign that some of that Matt Grimes transfer money has filtered through in to the playing budget.

THE STAR WARS TRAILER.

I'm so keen for this film now!

That is all.

Thanks so much Gullscorer! The WMN website is awful for these full-page popups! Once you get in behind them there are actually some decent stories! Just drowning in adverts!
