"GI, who specialise in property development and stadium management, may be heading to Torbay with a new home for United uppermost in their minds. But they are believed to have paid over a significant sum of money already as part of their agreement with the Gulls, money which has helped to boost...

The European Union: In or Out?
Odd's, laugh out loud indeed, Leicester City were 5000-1 to win the premier league. Odds are based on opinions as to what's might happen, not on FACT. You do realise how Betfair formulate odds? I wasn't quoting a national bookmakers odds, I was quoting a person to person gambling site's odds, a sit...

The European Union: In or Out?
Just seen the odds on Betfair, safe to say this Referendum is done, for those who don't want to stay in the EU the exits can be found at Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted to name but a few

Yes I did. That was before it became public knowledge that he'd been trying to tempt players to the club by telling them the same thing. If you choose to believe it was me making up something out of thin air that's your choice. I also said Nicholson would keep us up if he was able to sign players o...

Didn't you also forecast Nicho to be replaced by Harrop not long ago?
I don't think anyone yet knows the intentions of GI, but without them the club would not exist, you can call me simple but if it boils down to them or no club I'm of the opinion we may as well get behind them.

Torquay United v Tranmere Rovers
Today showed the difference between top half and bottom half teams in this division. Like Eastleigh before them Tranmere came took one of the very few chances that came their way and took the points. We just don't seem to create anything clear cut against the top teams at home when the onus is on us...

Torquay v Gateshead
You can dress it up how you like, however the simple facts are 5 points from the last available 24 is relegation form and whilst people talk of a light at the end of the tunnel with improved performances the damage has already in truth been done. We will be relegated this season and face a very diff...

Club loyalty: Garry Monk, loyal to Swansea for years took on the managerial job and got them to their highest points finish in the Premiership, first sign of a sticky patch and he was out the door, sacked by the club. Player loyalty: Chris Brandon, injured pulling up a palm tree on Torquay sea front...

What needs to happen ...
What needs to happen is the club needs to develop alternate revenue streams. At present football isn't paying for the club's existence. Talk of relegation being the end of the club in my eyes is slightly erroneous, as relegation would potentially mean moving to an artificial pitch (I think Nicholson...

The club twitter announced that there was a pitch inspection to take place at 12:45 and then announced the postponement soon after result of said inspection and asked people to retweet as there was a technical glitch with the OS. Not sure what more they could have done in the situation, but I'm sure...

So we've established George and Mushroom are the same person. Someone who claims to know a lot of the finances of the club but cannot say how or why. I'll await further developments but so far it is apparent that these '2' users are dealing in hearsay and not a lot more. I wonder if we can develop a...

STATEMENT OF AFFAIRS?
As a qualified accountant I can tell you there is no need for this. To produce this would cost the club money (which by all accounts (pun not intended) seems to be fairly sparse at the club at present). Additionally in my opinion no business of Torquay United (or Plainmoor Limited if you prefer)'s s...

If you were Kev.......
Back 4 and goalie pick themselves, lack of creativity going forward is the real problem. Sense all the eggs were in one basket with Young, which is understandable as at this level you simply cannot afford/it isn't possible to keep more than 1 decent quality creative player in the middle of the park ...
