I've seen worse players in a TUFC shirt this season.... Last week was the end of the line for a very poor ~ if well intentioned and dedicated ~ player. You can't blame the player for trying his best, only the judgement of the idiot who put him there. The devoid of pace Delano Sam-Yorke made him loo...

The point about transfer values is simple, market forces apply. TUFC owned the registration of a player, TUFC had bills to pay it couldn't, TUFC were desperate to sell the one player they had, that could be sold, TUFC had no choice but to settle for Barnsley's best offer, if Barnsley were not prepa...

Actually, your wording of your post suggests that when he left it had got to the stage where you were happy to see him leave for nothing, and that him being sold for such a fee was the situation being turned around. If you had said 'At one, point it had got to the stage', then you could lecture Phi...

Speak for yourself [sic]. A lot of us were very sad to see him go. You forget that his dicipline [sic] had improved massively in the year before he left, to the point where alongside Nathan Smith he was the most important player in the team. I've not forgotten that at all; where did I indicate that...

You've got to ask what did we let him go for £100.000 for, it shows the chairman and directors had no idea what the value of a young footballer could be. Nobody was complaining at the time though were they ~ indeed quite the opposite. I had got to the stage with him that with his conduct and play d...

Is there any reason why GI should not immediately provide Nicho with a little money to strengthen his squad (apart from the fact that they are GI) ? They have; don't expect a signing(s) to materialise in the first 24 hours after the go ahead has been given. It takes a little while and I know of thr...

No-one was worthy of man of the match except maybe Brendan Moore....the rest were dreadful ~ including Young who just played ineffectively in the comfort zone. Williams negated a great goal by taking a dreadful penalty and just what Richards, Gerring, Sparkes, Reid & Verma are doing in professio...

He has downfalls,signing Harrad again for one and his tactical management is poor but who else would do the job for us right now? Give him time and money to spend and I'm sure he will flourish. It's gone beyond that. I stood virtually at his shoulder today and the team has gone mentally, the techni...

I asked a person in the bar yesterday who I respect and this person is totally behind G.I. but when I asked questions would not give answers but you could tell that they knew the answers . Whoever they are; they obviously have a grasp of the FACT that the wages need to be paid and the operation of ...

Love the bit about people from the bay wanting to keep the club! I know several residents who live near Plainmoor and have said that they would be glad if the club went as their house prices would go up. Not everyone keen to save Torquay it seems. It needs pointing out that not one of these NIMBYS ...

TUST weren't even informed or consulted by the Mayor ]even though they possess the AoCV Just to illustrate how slanted all this tale is towards business interest and against that of the local community and supporters of the club; it has been brought to my attention that until they contacted the coun...

Plymouth have taken advantage of us here. Well done to those who negotiated this deal. The fee involved in pitiful. £15,000, possibly rising to £30,000, on how many conditions.. Whoop-de-doo. The fee involved is based (as always) on the purchasor's (not the vendor's) value of him and the terms of c...

Are you being serious ~ do you have a death wish for relegation? This guy is just what this squad of ninneys need!

If ever the Herald Express needed to get involved it is now and make every resident aware of the scandal unfolding before us It has been shown to me this morning that the Herald (Richard Hughes) is indeed in possession of damning stuff relating to the actions and wishes of the board in disposal of ...

Things must be bad if Dave and Merse have put aside their differences! Rest assured they were put aside a good time before the present. I came on this site to reply in person to some pretty destructive posting aimed towards the opposition to the 'plan' of GI and certain emerging characters who have...
