Live @ Plainmoor

I have been invited back to Plainmoor to help with the resurrection of Live @ Plainmoor which met with some success several years ago. The plan is to organise a variety of events including live music, quiz nights, sportsman’s dinners etc. in the hope of generating much needed funds for the Club. W...

Torquay United v Eastleigh

I have just been up to the ground. The Groundsmen had been working on it last night and this morning using the tractor to verti-drain the whole pitch. Chris said that there are a few puddled areas that he is working on but at the moment he is reasonably confident that if we do not get any more heavy...

Kids for Free. The Economic Argument

It is calculated as Taxilady indicates and is a requirement of the Safety Advisory Group that everyone in the ground (for whatever reason) is included in the calculation. The reason is that the Club does not exceed capacity ( not much chance at the moment) and that there is a record of all people in...

Great minds may think alike !!!

I think Matt might be referring to me Hector. My mother forgets who I am sometimes so I shouldn't worry about it. I thank Matt for his observations but I don't really want to get drawn in to a game of "who was better than whom" as those types of discussions can quickly spiral in to lots of...

Consortium update

There have been some more very generous comments so once again I want to say a big thank you. I won't clog up the site with any more postings of this nature but rest assured your kind words mean a great deal to me. I will still be involved but not in any official capacity. Best wishes, Andrew

Consortium update

Thank you all for your comments. I will still be around in the background and I am pleased that I am part of the equation that allows Stephen to commit his time to Torquay United. It has been my privilege to work for the Club and I am very grateful for the ideas, suggestions and support from this fo...

Yellowfest Tickets Offer

It was a great day and the "old has beens" as you have called them were magnificent , the local bands were also first class. It was an amazing sight to see so many people dancing on the pitch and in Bristows Bench. It is reasonable to assume that everyone had a good time and would return n...

YELLOWFEST 2015

I appreciate that there are a number of concerns on this site that I cannot comment on, so apologies for posting a non-footballing item. However, given the income potential I have to continue on the basis of "business as usual" so it is with pleasure that I announce the launch of Yellowfes...

Matchday experience .. maybe for A CANDY?

Sorry that I have not formally replied but I have been very busy at the moment. As Taxilady correctly points out, I cannot always reply to a number of issues but I do take note of what is posted and will try and take action where appropriate. This is one of those occasions. We are looking at aspects...

Ideas for Mr Candy

Hi Nick, I have drawn the Chairman's attention to some of the concerns being expressed on different fans forums and Thea is fully aware that there is a desire to see new players brought in. I imagine these matters will be discussed as part of the business of the next Board meeting which is scheduled...

Where did it all go wrong.....

Thank you CP Gull for your kind and "insightful" comments which I appreciate. I do struggle to contribute on here at times because as I am sure that you understand, there are many threads where it would be wrong for me to do so. This is one of those threads but I appreciate your personal o...

KEEP THE BLUE SHORTS

Thank you for your comments on the blue shorts which I can confirm will be our home colours at least until the end of this season, possibly beyond that as well. I would like to clarify that the "mix up" was nothing to do with Joma our kit manufacturers, who have been very helpful and suppo...
