Potential Buyers
Rochdale are an attractive investment for those with the funds; they own the ground and have very manageable levels of debt. The majority of interest is coming from America, partly thanks to the increased exposure in the English football pyramid provided by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s takeov...

Osborne gone!
No, not when you can simply email "[email protected]", lolCornishGull wrote: ↑24 Feb 2024, 01:15 Come on off it. If someone was seriously contemplating investing in a football club they wouldn't make an approach through a fan's forum run by people that have no official connection to the club.

Torbay Council
To be fair, I'm pretty sure that's what Edwards' job was.North Curry House wrote: ↑23 Feb 2024, 17:01 Well said, Bateson certainly was not a fool and engaged with the fans. I recall his ventriloquist dummy, which he bought out in the boardroom after a few whiskies.

New Revenue ideas?
I had a message for Maidstone United fan saying that he had contributed to the GoFundMe page, but I don’t see a link for that anywhere in these posts. It is obviously out there if fans of other clubs are putting money in. I know of at least one GoFundMe that was set up by a fan. No doubt it's well ...

Potential Buyers
Do they all have rich owners or more likely an effective business model. the most successful (from a business side) clubs in our current division or the one above do so by having lower costs and higher revenue You lower costs by paying the players less (e.g. being part time). You have fewer overhea...

Overseas Fans-Streaming matches
Does anybody have any contacts with the National league TV. I would like to contact them. I would like to demonstrate to them that there is a significant overseas Torquay United following Who would pay good money to watch them play. Which raises another question, how much of the streaming revenue g...

Administrators. Pick up the phone and call Ryan Reynolds or Rob McElaney. I’m sure they have NO INTEREST in buying the team but they DO KNOW a whole lot of wealthy Americans who might actually like to make a similar name for themselves….Will Ferrell comes to mind but I’m guessing there’s a whole lo...

TUST - Show Venom and a backbone
In my opinion, as a TUST member, they are being a little too cautious. What the supporters need is leadership! I’m not slagging the TUST off, they are very passionate individuals, but they could go a lot further in shining light on Osborne’s real intentions. My suspicion is that first, thr Trust ne...

**23rd March v Hampton & Richmond** - Big Protest Day
Good read .. Oliver Ash one of the Maidstone bosses. Laid out all the problems with the game in the EFL and National league South. Many things to take into consideration when running a football club would imagine that their finances are in a pretty good state this season, though - with the FA Cup r...

Torquay United v St. Albans - 03rd February 2024.
So no names. Exactly my point. We won't get a full time manager of any note No part timer will come here to go full time. So exactly the whole point. A young part time manager with ambition would jump at the chance to manage a full time club *if* he felt he would be given appropriate support. It's ...

Re: Clark Osborne/Jim Parker Interview
But then the other problem he will have is Kevin Foster MP, who appears not to be a fan (like others) of Osborne. Is he a fan of the club? I seem to remember a couple of bland statements about them from him at some point, but as far as I'm aware, he's never actually been to Plainmoor. (this may tur...
