Torquay v Southport Saturday 29th October 3pm

Today was awful, there's no getting around that. We should have been 2-0 down before we scored, and the goal changed the half. It came from nothing, but it was a great bit of skill from Williams to pick up the ball in midfield, beat a few players and curl it in the corner from 25+ yards - you don't...

Peter Masters

I am not sure any of us, other than members of the board or the TUST now they have done there financial review know exactly what monies the club owes, however the TUST has stated that their are several debts due for payment in the New Year, these could be monies owed to GI or loans that Masters req...

Peter Masters

Thanks James, confirmation, as if it was needed, that Masters is a conniving s**t. Seems that the date set for the board to decide whether the club is to be community owned to save it from the trap set by Masters is 31st October. It's a shame that it looks as if TUST will have to take on and pay off...

Torquay v Aldershot 22nd October 3pm

And then there was the referee. Oh dear ...... The refs we have had in recent weeks have been okay - no complaints. I thought the ref for the Woking game was rather fussy but overall he didn't get much wrong. Yesterday, an example of stupidity and inconsistency - he made Brendan Moore move sideways...

WILL THE REAL DAVE THOMAS PLEASE STAND UP

Exactly - it was contributors who first suggested about the debts. It wasn't DT who first alluded to debts anyway - that information was in Forum Land, long before it was ever mentioned in the Herald. What use is DT being 'Access all Areas' anyway, if it just results in him colluding with the silen...

WILL THE REAL DAVE THOMAS PLEASE STAND UP

On the other hand, would Dave Thomas be "Access all Areas" if he was spilling the beans and scattering those skeleton's bones all over the back page? Sometimes it's up to us to read between the lines. Wasn't it Dave Thomas that alluded to the fact that the club had 2 outstanding debts that...

...we are not a rich, high earning area. I don't think anyone in TUST thinks that it would be easy but it would be better than not having a club at all. At least the club would be safe from property developers and asset strippers like Peter Masters. However, I think there are enough business savvy ...

FA Cup Qualifying - Fourth Round - Torquay v Woking 1-1 - Replay 18/10

Why oh why do people speak about Nico as if he is some sort of football god. Yes he had a good career with TUFC and as a player I liked him but just because he may be seen as some type of TUFC legend doesn't make him a great manager. Yes we dodged relegation last season but it wasn't good football ...

The Disgraceful Player Fund

I think that the point being made is that if fans are donating their hard earned pounds to the Players Fund they should be told (even have a right to be told) how that money is being spent. Disclosing which players get what isn't necessary, but at least what comes in and what is going out is not unr...

Drummer

Bringing the drum with me every game, home and away, is never a chore...however, when the performances on the pitch falter, fans start to lose the motivation to create an atmosphere. There were a couple of homes games where I would take the drum, try and start a few chants, we concede and then ever...

Drummer

Have we still got a drum/drummer? The atmosphere has been noticably flat over the last couple of games, and against Woking particularly it was like a graveyard. This is not a dig at Danny who does a great job and is obviously not obliged to drum at all, but have we not got someone else who'd step i...

Brett Williams

I trust Nico's judgement. If he doesn't like him that's good enough for me.

It's stating the bleeding obvious but we need to score goals and Blissett and Williams just aren't cutting it. When Young is putting in crosses from free kicks of the quality that we've seen there's no excuse.
