Torquay United Fans Forum

Precisely this. Despite my personal dislike of trusts I'd come to the conclusion that trust led community ownership was the only solution, however the response from those currently running TUST has shattered any miniscule hopes I had left that there was light at the end of the tunnel. I'm a born fi...

Merse , if Harrop brings osborne to the table. Then why did he bring osborne to the table ? Because yet again Torquay United are seen as a club where you can procure a job without the necessary CV to justify it. Employment from within the family=a better salary and more security than being the Acad...

KN was a failure as a manager and this played a large part in the downward spiral suffered on the field. After 3 years he was still making basic managerial errors, though he did admit this at the end of last season. Managers today do not have the luxury of learning the ropes over an extended period...

Make no mistake about it ; it was Harrop who brought Osborne to the table not vice-versa!

As Clarke Osborne is not a football man the club does need someone who brings together all the different aspects of running a football club and makes certain they comply with a coherent, long-term plan. But I think I am right in saying that the consensus of opinion is Harrop is not that person. No ...

I think that is what he wants to do. Our job as fans is to do whatever is necessary to try to prevent this happening. He must not get away with this without a fight. That's the only aspect I want to comment on tonight; the club is run into the ground already and it has been pretty much been there f...

Just appeared to be another rather anonymous 'safety first' merchant in the mould of JP and a host of other rather low key forwards who have been at the club in recent seasons........mind you that's based on a short cameo appearance at Boreham Wood for me and THAT aspect of his opportunity to switch...

I see Dulwich are 5 pts clear but Billericay have 5 games in hand . Does one go straight up? Also is that the Gavin Tomlin in their squad who played for us 6 or 7 years ago? Good player .....then.... I wouldn't take it as read that Billericay will win the league just because of their inordinately b...

As I posted earlier in this thread; Cedric and I went back years ~ as did many people with him ~ and it is another blow to the Torquay United Family to lose him so soon after the passing of Ian Twitchin.

Condolences to Donna and Dean

Not sure why that attendance table ' gives us an idea of the sort of drop we can expect' ?Has there ever been a club as big as us in that league ? I meant it as a comment on the sort of drop in creature comforts on our travels and profile more than home gates and it wouldn't be very difficult to be...

Nor I Andy......nor I!

This gives you an idea of the sort of drop we can expect next season the way things are going: A lot less interest; a lot less media coverage and damned lucky if the ball-by-ball commentary service survives ~ especially from away games. You'll be hard pressed to get to some of the grounds by public ...

There is no window applicable to the National League

Oh come on, TUFCyellow - Merse has told us what a great player Reece Mitchell is, so it must be so. After all, he also told us what a world class player Barnum Bob was, didn't he? Any fool can look up the Jazzy Barnum-Bobb thread and read that I said: 'He's an attack-minded full-back who looked cer...

I do sense double standards whenever Nicholson and Owers are mentioned. Ignore that last poster (with no brain) Dave; he only crawls out of the woodwork to have a go at me ~ he's a single issue troll! :Oops: I do stand to be accused of that (and take it on board) because of my vehement objection to...
