Truro ground share back on?

Going through the fixtures, the amount of matchdays when Torquay and Truro are at home on the same day is NIL.
You can't tell me that's a coincidence.

The National League knew this was coming.

Truro ground share back on?

Notice they haven't updated their admission prices from last season - I wonder if any Season Tickets have been sold for the forthcoming one?

New kit on the way?

I can't be arsed to find the thread(s), but I remember when we changed the name of Plainmoor to the LWS; there was **** anarchy on here. Threats of a boycott, people defiantly banging the drum for heads to roll over such a life-changing decision which chipped away at the very cornerstone of the her...

I still wear my 1989 Sherpa Van final one from time to time.
I still have a knitted woolen one my Mum bought me from Rossiters back in 1964! :scarf:

TUST Updates

To be pedantic he loaned the previous board money; was made aware that they couldn't pay it back and acquired the club by that default..... Did he play the loan shark's card of offering more than he knew could be repaid and thus called in his guaranty which was their shareholding? Thanks Merse, tha...

TUST Updates

It still worries me as to why CO purchased TUFC in the first place? CO is a business man and business men like to make money. Small football clubs like TUFC don't make money, they hemorrhage it. CO is too clever to lose money, at least long term. So - hidden agenda? There must be one somewhere along...

Not being all that confident on social media - could you point me in the direction of the photos etc - not sure where to look.
Thanks

Was this the plan all along?

I reckon it will all pan out like this ....

Westlands School will get Plainmoor through the Council

Osborne gets Quinta playing fields for housing as a thank-you for leaving Plainmoor

TU get a new small stadium at the Willows for their trouble

Simples!

Live on BBC Radio Devon - Chris Fleet, one of the TUST board members states that the TUST have been trying to get a meeting with Osborne for most of the season .. and they have just found out that none of their requests have even been passed on to him!

So who is to blame for that? Harrop??

Talking Torquay

However, we're going to be the 'big fish' in the league , which presents problems in itself. For a lot of teams in the lower half of the division, we'll be their cup final. That is a very, very risky thing to say! Too many people still seem to be under the impression that we are a 'big fish' in the...

While we quietly slide into oblivion - Southport have mega-plans for a revival.

Osborne Sells Up..... To Masters?

I have it on reliable authority from a good source that the deal is done or almost done. Just got home after a week away to read all about this. Do you and Merse both use the same sauce? http://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1653/4581/products/mussa-magic-sauce-500ml-sauces_grande.jpg?v=1497352741 :lol:
