DARREN MOORE

Well done Darren Moore on your results so far especially the win at Old Trafford yesterday. It just goes to show what a charismatic, enthusiastic and inspirational coach/manager can do with a bunch of inherited players who had no doubt been written off by the West Brom faithful when Alan Pardew was ...

Gary Owers

So the Mardy Geordie and his mate have failed to achieve 50+ points. Even his totally incompetent (according to some on this Forum) predecessor ,whose name escapes me for the moment, managed to do better in much more trying circumstances. It's time for our esteemed General Manager to review our fina...

Dover v Torquay Utd. SAT 7TH APRIL. ko.3PM

Thank you Gulliball for a carefully constructed summary of recent events. I expect that most readers of this forum will share the same thoughts.

Survival: Could we do it?

Sadly, that is highly unlikely with the two clowns who are in charge of the team!

Gary Owers

I didn't say that was all he did. To be honest I'm getting fed up pointing out the obvious. You championed Owers from the beginning and he turned out to be a far bigger dud than Nicholson ever did. I don't need your insight into the merits of the management, I have a much clearer view than someone ...

GET Gary Owers, Martin Khul & Geoff Harrop OUT NOW

I think more so now; the vital ingredient and stench emanating from the treatment room; is a plethora of experienced malingerers who don't like having their noses being put out of joint by a new management and turn every little niggle into a six week sicknote. Typical of a relegation squad! The mos...

Torquay United v Bromley 20/1/18

Apart from us and Hartlepool the rest of the bottom half of the table are playing games against each other. That means there will be more points than usual going to teams in the bottom half of the table which is bad news for us whatever result we get.

Gary Owers

I have very little time for people who don't sell themselves but instead rubbish others and blame everything and everybody for the position they find themselves in. Gary Owers seems to be like this which is why he has failed so spectacularly. If he could get his act together and at least show some e...

Is there an alternative future for Torquay United?

As things stand it looks like we will be relegated to Natinal South for next season. We are in the ownership of someone who has no interest in the future of the Club other than for his own gain, however that might be realised. There are no potential buyers of the Club as far as I know. The only alte...

Are these latest signings the last roll of the dice for TUFC

I suspect that the main reason for Merse currently acting up like a bear with a sore head is that his hoped for scenario for this season isn't coming to fruition. He has a deep, undying hatred for Kevin Nicholson. I don't think we know why but I may have missed the explanation somewhere along the li...

Wrexham v Torquay 6/1/18

At least Martin Kuhl will have a back up job waiting for him on a building site when he is shown the door at Plainmor. :lol: :lol: I don't really know whether I should feel sorry for him and Gary Owers - were they sold a pup, have they been unlucky with recruitment or have they just messed up big ti...

Two strikers Imminent?

Perhaps the problem with us making significant signings is that the financial controller at TQ1, whoever that might be, is getting cold feet and that is why we are getting the scraps and other Clubs are getting the better players ?

The squad as it stands.....

I think we are in danger of going off thread on this one. The purpose of my first post wasn't to insult Martin Kuhl ( he must have a sense of humour to have survived in football for so long) or to question his knowledge of the game (football is only a small part of my life and I am becoming increasi...

Quite possibly the best response I have ever read!!! Before becoming moderately successful working for myself, I worked part time in a supermarket to cover bills while my business got going. Any of us with financial responsibilities would shovel shit to pay the bills, I would think. Calling someone...

The squad as it stands.....

Correct me if I am wrong but prior to today I think Oowers and the brickie's mate had signed 7 players and only Andresson is still with us. The one thing they all had in common was that they started well enough but their enthusisism, commitment or whatever slowly waned and they left as quickly as th...
