Torquay United Fans Forum

I hope we are not interested in Atangana, we have enough players who take it in turns to fill up the treatment room, we do not need another one of the play one injured three variety. Former Cheltenham player, long term injury problem and wrong side of 30. It's got Johnson signing written all over it.

The five year plan originally envisaged a new stadium then when it became clear that wasn't going to happen the target became promotion to the EFL and that doesn't look like happening. Osborne won't get his £4 million back because no one is going to pay that for the club, in fact I don't think anyon...

I would rather have Wrexham win the league and be done with them. If Stockport fail in the play offs I think they will be severely financially damaged whereas if Wrexham were to fail Netflix would just write out another cheque.

Regarding MacDonald, I thought he left last season because he wasn't offered the first choice goalkeeper spot. Surely the club would be stupid not to guarantee him the spot now and for that reason I think he will stay.

Little and Lemon definitely more likely to go than Macdonald and Lewis.

I wonder if it's anything to do with their age, Lolos is 21 so presumably we might be entitled to compensation if he goes somewhere else before he reaches 24.

He came on for Lapslie against Dagenham.

Seems that since our play off hopes ended apathy has set in.

And we didn't even bother with a Chesterfield match thread.

I think we have to remember that Gary and Pete Johnson have shared a successful career together, therefore Pete Johnson has successfully supplied his brother wIth suitable players in the past.
Desperado's comment is probably pretty close to the mark.

I've said it before and I'll say it again Johnson's brother is to spotting talent what the Taliban is to female emancipation. Unless the club appoints a scout with an in-depth knowledge of non-league and League 1 and 2 Torquay will end up with useless articles such as Halstead and Holman. Invest in...

Can only be Little. Then again seeing how little he is appreciated in some quarters I wouldn't blame him for putting two fingers up and plying his trade elsewhere next season.

It is difficult to see Clarke’s end game. Why he continues to fund the clubs substantial loses when he is not a fan and does not even seem to like football is a mystery. But without him the club would be bankrupt. This is a myth. As a child he attended Bristol Rovers matches where his father was on...

It's a bit of a myth that we can't compete with the high spending sides. Last season Stockport were rumoured to be the highest spending team and we finished above them. Notts County this season are doing no better than previous seasons in this division and Chesterfield have always spent big to no av...

There's every possibility Oldham will be coming down. I've no idea the financial position of the club, but they're formerly of the Premier League and would consider themselves as contenders to go back up I expect. Don't be fooled by the ex-Premier League label. Oldham were only members for the firs...
