You're not us, you're them!!!

I said I know, what I cannot figure out is why it's been allowed to happen, as for posting on this forum, as a fan who's followed Gulls for over 40years home and away, I feel I'm in a position to talk on these matters...after all the troubles we've had over the years on and off the park, how CO was...

Fact laden - you can't say this And it's not a mystery how CO got control of the club at all, well known he provided a loan when the David Roberts led group needed money, we defaulted on it and he took control But of course we were in that position because of a stupid ST deal which caused cash flow...

2-1 away win

The wrong type of fans, clearly............

Won't be there next week as the Boy and I are off to England v Brazil. The Boy will be taking his huge Torquay flag. Hopefully we can get it in a prominent position for the TV cameras to pick it up. It would be great if it got a mention by the commentators. You never know, some multi millionaire ma...

I know plenty about him as I did my own due diligence when he was interested in buying the club previously. I'm also close friends with someone who knows him personally. If you went purely on what fans say you'd come to the conclusion Mike Bateson was a charlatan when in fact he was the last person ...

There's a world of difference. Ask any Reading speedway fan..................

3-2 home win

Fair enough nobody knows exactly what the budget was this season but surely to God what the likes of Moxey, Hall, Lapslie, Dawson, Halstead, Stobbs, Jarvis, Collins, McGavin are on must dwarf the wages the part timers the likes of Taunton are on. I don't disagree with you but look at the lack of si...

1-2

You assume there was a budget fit for a full time professional team, this season there simply wasn't as can be clearly seen by the lack of reinforcements and then a few below bargain basement additions recently. You also wrongly assume there was no alternative to Osborne taking over when he did. One...

I have no doubt whatsoever, that the sole reason CO announced intention of going into administration rather than putting the club up for sale, was simply SPITE. Once he knew there was no chance of the council giving him the land he wanted, he no longer needed to pretend that our club mattered in an...

Was it her idea though? The club was already in hock to GI and she suggests cut price season tickets , then if I remember correctly she was sacked as Kevin Nicholson had to go and persuade season ticket buyers to cough up another pony. But miraculously she returns to the club as one of Osborne's di...

Did I say you did? No, I clearly wrote about future involvement with him seeing as you're so quick to defend him.
