That'll be at least two c*cks in that house then.....DerekDawkinsJnr wrote: ↑26 Feb 2024, 23:32 I don't think it matters a great deal at this stage. All we know is she's a married Thai woman, 46yrs old.
Complete spitballing here:
Maybe she's CO's missus?

Where's the money going?
Woefully overspending is not a problem as long as someone foots the bill. Stoke do it, as do Man City, Chelsea and many others. Unfortunately so did Darlington, Bury, Chester, Maidstone and Aldershot amongst others. Then the funds stopped. Just for the record, I'm not particularly a fan of Osbourne...

I know that you shouldn't rely on it as a medium, but anyone who things that Norman Smurthwaite is a knight in shining armour should read his profile on Wikipedia. I stand by my contention that he is an Osborne clone and would be bad news for Torquay United. To coin a cliche - 'better the devil you...

Where's the money going?
Apologies for "going quiet" lol...other jobs to do. Also apologies for calling the poster clueless, that was wrong. Including NI, pension costs and other expenses, the monthly salaries cost is in excess of £100k. The club has been losing over £20k a week for years, that's nearly £85k a mo...

Get real. You really think Osbourne, a business man, is going to accept a £5 million loss and just walk away? How deluded are you? Whoever (if anyone does) takes us on, they will have to pay a substantial amount of that £5 million loan back to Osbourne. No they won't. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/fo...

Osborne gone!
I cannot believe some of the responses of "fans". Osborne saved the club from oblivion when nobody else was remotely interested in investing. He's thrown away well over 5 million quid and got nothing but abuse for his money. The council wouldn't even engage with him on where the future is...

Torbay Council
As an aside, why do fans think the freehold of Plainmoor is worth a lot? If its not used as a football stadium, the only possible use for the site is development. That would be affordable housing or industrial units. Can't think of much else and neither would be particularly lucrative. Perhaps the ...

Torbay Council
This may not be a popular post, but I want to stick up for the council, even going back to Dave Webb, Chris Roberts, Osborne have all wanted the freehold on the land, and thankfully the council have said no, I just hope there's a Mike Bateson figure who's local, he wasn't everyones cup of tea, but ...
