Staying Up - Relegation Battle

Yesterday’s results have made a huge difference to our chances of staying up. Thanks to late goals elsewhere we were the only one of the bottom teams to win. Welling are back in trouble and Hemel aren’t safe either. With 7 teams still at risk of joining Dover & Havant in the bottom 4, it would s...

What is best - a bad owner as we've just had or starting again as a phoenix club?
Depends how bad the owner but if any only want the ground I'd rather start again.

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

Truro face a huge challenge to stay up given their schedule of matches. www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/68630567 One would expect Truro will drop points as a result but with all those games they'll probably pick up enough to stay up. Unfortunately they still have to play Dartford twice, plus Eastbourn...

I'm no expert and doesn't sound ideal but I guess as an analogy if your on the Titanic and there's one lifeboat available to save yourself you have to take it. Or build a new boat yourself. Not very good to start with but gets better with time and it's your boat not owned by someone who may have qu...

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

Yes we can't rely on other teams. We will have to get points ourselves. Whilst Tuesday's abandoned match doesn't help Truro, leaving them with yet another game to fit in, it may not be good for us as when Eastbourne play at Truro they will be in a run of many games within a short time, so Eastbourne...

Taunton lost to Chippenham tonight.
Now only 3 games in hand on us and a point behind.
Hopefully their two wins (Worthing & us) were flash in the pan and they're back to losing form again.

Truro City v Eastbourne Borough F C Abandoned Tonight

From Eastbourne's website this morning - Eastbourne Borough’s National League South fixture away at Truro City was abandoned with 58 minutes played last night owing to injury to Alex Finney. The Borough defender suffered a horrific knee injury after landing awkwardly having won a challenge with a Ci...

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

Important match tonight, Truro v Eastbourne (at Gloucester). Given that Truro have the same points as us but 5 games in hand I think we want them to win. If Eastbourne win they'd only be a point behind us. Of course if we don't gain at least 6 and probably about 9 points, then there's not much point...

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

It was reported back by a number of fans at Tonbridge Saturday that our team turned up in their cars Saturday and not on a team coach, well this sums it up, and a certain poster who still try's to paint Clarke Osbourne out as a white knight, well for you know who this tells CO is 'not' still paying...

Tonbridge Angels v Torquay United, March 16 3pm

More or less the same players were in a play off position for the first half of the season.
Since Christmas we have achieved relegation results.
What has changed?

Tonbridge Angels v Torquay United, March 16 3pm

Jarvis should have scored early one but apart from the goal that was the only real chance we created. We had a lot of the ball and if it weren’t for our appalling defence a draw should have been the result. A good number of Torquay fans there (200 or so?) but strangely quiet. And I agree that Hall s...

It's a Kent derby today.
It would be very helpful to us if Maidstone could beat Dartford.

And a word of caution: Angels' fans do like to do the traditional non-league thing and swap ends at half time (which I 100% agree with) so don't be surprised if the stewards/security ask you to move at half-time.
We didn't move at half time last time. The locals moaned a bit.
