Myles Anderson

I have a mate who's a Blackburn Rovers fan. He sent me this clipping which was in their local rag the other day; Yesterday Barrow AFC, of the National League, released Myles Anderson. Remember him ? The son of agent and Venky;s advisor Jerome ( the man who ruined Backburn Rovers) Anderson. Myles , w...

Time to go Mr Nicholson... POOR

I have the utmost respect for Nicho and the way he conducts himself in totally shite circumstances. I don't think getting rid of him is the answer. BUT The lack of clear tactics and a game plan is not influenced by budget or off field shenanigans. That's down to Nicho and Robbie. It's really been bo...

Torquay v Woking 14/01/17

I'm much more positive about tomorrow now that Fitzpatrick is here for another month and that we have a right back.

1-1.

Gaming International have taken our club hostage

GI's 5 year plan; Year 1: Limited investment in the team and narrowly avoid staying in the National League. Acquire freehold of Plainmoor. Year 2: Limited investment in the team, just about stay in National League South. Attendance numbers drop. Year 3: Enter administration. 10 point deduction and T...

Brace yourselves

I'm sure Mr Phillips is a nice bloke. I have no doubt that he's worked very hard this last eighteen months and tried to do the best for Torquay United. Unfortunately though, as he's not communicated with us, we have no idea about any of that. All we (now) know is that he's sold us to GI, a company t...

FA Trophy First Round, Braintree Town v Torquay United, Sat. 10 December 2016

Great escape ??...yeah right... We are a massive 5 points off the relegation places and we have lost to Woking Southport Guisely and North Ferriby all below us. Do you see us winning at York next week. I hope so but.....I am not going to hold my breath. FFS Jeff where I have said I EXPECT success ?...

New Owners - Soon?

Can we read in to anything Kev says here? http://www.torquayheraldexpress.co.uk/t ... story.html as in he should know who the bidders are shouldn't he? Or am I just being too optimistic?

FA Trophy First Round, Braintree Town v Torquay United, Sat. 10 December 2016

Tight game, but I think our desire for the £2,500 (or whatever it is) prize money will help motivate us ^.^ and we'll win 1-0.

New Owners - Soon?

Ok, its positive that they have reached an agreement. Well done the board. I hope the deal is as good as can be expected in the circumstances. Agreement "subject to contract" is pretty standard stuff and one would hope that most of the DD work has already been done, as the purported 16 day...

Dagenham v Torquay 29/11/16

I'm afraid I lost my positive hat in the away end at Tranmere on Saturday. Think we'll lose by two or three tonight. Really hope I'm proved wrong.

Tranmere V Torquay 26/11 3pm

Lots of arguing between the Tranmere players as to who should take it and then the dude steps up and puts it 5 or 6 yards wide. Awful pen. Other than Sparkes skinning their full back and getting a good cross in (once) it was the highlight of my day. Actually, the cheeseburger at half time was probab...

MOTM - Tranmere

Tough one. Don't think anyone stood out.

Kieffer did ok but nothing like Tuesdays performance.

Sparkes did ok when he had the ball.

Verma & Ward tried hard but can't pass it more than 10 yards.

Gerring & McGinty looked solid.

Snoop did ok.

Tranmere V Torquay 26/11 3pm

Well, the midfield lost us that game. We had no one who could pass a ball in the middle of the pitch. I thought we were actually ok defensively. One lapse in concentration for the first goal to give Mangan too much space (it was a quality finish) but other than that, the back 4 did ok, especially co...
