I don't recall anyone having any problem with Taylor before Ling's leave of absence. All the bad feeling toward him comes from his time when thrust in to the limelight as first team manager. As far as I am aware he is a more than competent coach - which is what he really is on our limited budget, a ...

I only said Stevens on the wing because he came off the bench on Saturday. Could play anyone there really, they're all as equally without match practice as each other.

I voted no, I just don't see Yeoman and Jarvis working as a pair. Most likely I think will be Jarvis pushed up front with Stevens coming in on the right.

Now now Super, let's not have any negativity around the place especially when all is looking up now. :na: :lol: You're bloody right though! If they had played like their careers depended on it in just TWO more of our games this season then we'd already be safe. :@ :@ Not many of them HAVE futures h...

It's on their OS, http://www.oufc.co.uk/news/article/00110413-accounts-766507.aspx. Disgusting. Professional football is just ridiculous now. How is it fair that we can get relelgated while tring to balance the books where they can get in to massive debts and stay in the league. After the Chappell n...

Thea Bristow interview on Spotlight tonight, http://www.torquayunited.com/news/artic ... 64692.aspx.

Sky channel 967 for those of us outside the south west.

I wouldn't mind, but it doesn't seem to be based on anything. A load of speculation with no evidence at all. People making assumptions and then moan when those assumptions seem to result in negative outcomes. Maybe Thea is an MBA. Maybe she is on the Board of a dozen Fortune 500 companies, but she ...

This is all a little bizarre. From reading the piece on the OS it doesn't sound like Mrs Bristow has any board room knowledge, save what she has gained from being in our board room, let alone any previous experience of chairing a board of directors. If this was a sudden decision from Simon Baker to ...

What about Mr Phillips? probably the worst director we have ever had! I couldnt even name any others on the board! They are so out of touch with the fans i wouldnt be sad to Baker/phillips go According to the OS, the directors are: Simon Baker - Chairman Cris Boyce Mark Boyce Thea Bristow Tony Cart...

This is exactly what we need. We are grown ups and should be able to sort this crap out. Better that than something awful is said and the club gets fined - or worse.

In my opinion, poke was rushing out so this decision for a red card was a very tight one. Cruise did intentionally push him over but it all depends if cruise was "the 2nd last defender" as its officially known. (poke being classed as the last defender). If he was deemed to be then there i...

Denial of a clear goal scoring opportunity, red card.
It did appear to be just very clumsy from Cruise, Hopefully the disciplinary panel will take this in to account and see there was no malice and only give a one game ban.

Its good news that Ling is not suffering from a serious illness then. Whether his problem is drink/stress related will we ever really know the truth? However do we really want him back? - he will be living away from his family doing a job which is extremely stressful. He might be back in May but Kn...

It really is up to us now. We have seen in the last two away games that the players have the fight in them, but we have seen in recent home games that fans getting on players backs only makes them play worse. If we want to stay up we have to get behind the players and support them. If we are yelling...

Welcome back Matt Thanks for the support I was talking to Tom at the last home game and the lad is getting extremely frustrated at his lack of opportunities. He said " this time a year ago I was marking Theo Walcott in training and doing well against him now I'm marking Niall Thompson" ho...
