Torquay United v Wrexham Sat 29 April KO 5.30pm.

Thought that was a great game and a credit to both teams and the league itself. The atmosphere was electric and the action was often end to end. The fact that we held the league champions and would have won but for one missed tackle when we were pressing for the second showed had good our all-round ...

Will we stay up?

Sorry, we are down. Even if we win on Saturday we will not get anything from the champions elect who will enjoy a chance to play with freedom and make us look what we are and have been for much of the season - a shambles.

Torquay Utd v York City - Sat 15th April 3pm

Having seen the highlights it reminded me just what an excellent, exciting game this was. I had kind of forgotten because after the elation of the final whistle I came down to earth with a bump when I realised that Aldershot had grabbed a late winner. Fantastic performance by Jarvis but a great all-...

Will we stay up?

What a game and performance yesterday! Was buzzing at full time but almost immediately fell flat to see Aldershot had grabbed a late winner. We are still no nearer safety despite the win and, as we face two away games and a final home game against the champions elect, it looks increasingly like we w...

MOTM - York

Jarvis - for the hat-trick and general performance Halstead - kept us ahead with several good and two outstanding saves Evans - a very energetic performance Collins - terrorised their full back and a great assist for the second goal Dawson - always on hand to plug gaps and moved he ball well in midf...

Torquay United v Eastleigh - Good Friday 7th April

This was a gritty, professional performance against a strong but horrible opposition. There were many excellent performances throughout the team but I thought the standouts were our two scorers, Jarvis and Moxey. It was a game of few clear-cut chances - we only had 5 attempts all game but 4 on targe...

MOTM - Eastleigh

Lapslie - fantastic energy, crucially combative and coolly taken goal
Hall - great goal but another great midfield performance
Jarvis - worked tirelessly up front
Donellan - good defensive performance
Moxey - another quality display

And the home crowd-Plainmoor was eocking

On the substantive issue, I believe only Aldershot is realistically in the mix with the bottom four now. Can't see us accumulating enough points to threaten them though so, I think we are down but hope we continue to fight right to the end. Anything but a win tomorrow is a further nail (or two) in t...

Strewth - its the hope that kills you! 'Fraid we are still deep in the do-do and I can't see us getting another 4 wins which will be needed to give us a fighting chance. But well done team on making a go of it.

MOTM - Dagenham

Jarvis - our only player to do himself justice all season and a great goal Evans - provided the energy in midfield until his knock put him out of action Stobbs - good first half but increasingly anonymous second half Hall - provided cover for the defence until removed from play Moxey - the left side...

His interview was embarrassing - he sounds like a totally defeated man.

Torquay v Dagenham & Redbridge 25th March 2023

Just got back from a game which we largely controlled but when we saw the winning tape we started to go longer and longer and with Dagenham always prepared to play on the ground it was only a question of time before they put us to the sword. We had 6 attempts in the first half, four on target and th...

Wouldn't agree with your edit. Owers squad included the likes of Cameron, Wynter, Reid and Hall plus Edwards and Andrews from Bristol City. Johnson was able to hit the ground running with those players and achieved promotion in just 30 games. The players were good, it was just Owers was unable to m...

Yes, today was the final nail in the coffin. I have so far resisted pointing the finger at the manager but he has to be held to account for assembling the worst squad I think I can ever remember at TUFC and forcing them to play in bizarre formations and with clueless tactics (principally hoofball). ...
