Sweet baby Jesus, shut the front door, wtf, I pop out for a couple of hours and come back to this news. Sat here hour after hour, day after day just hoping and waiting for a signing that might just raise an eyebrow and bang, this is the last thing I expected. Not going to get positive or anything si...

I dont know anything about him really but from some of the things I read yesterday I like it that he always called Morrissey Steven.

Remember the morning after that and goals on Sunday on sky were doing a feature review on this game and Steve Claridge was punditing in the studio. Claridge was clearly hungover, possibly still pissed and he subsequently went into a rant about the amount of attention and coverage the game had. Clari...

Typical Torbay, full of nimbys. Should be renamed nimbyville.

I would hope the council/Mayor/TDA etc wouldnt even consider Osborns advances but I aint gonna bet on it. Knowing they wouldnt do it could make a huge difference in the fight to still have a club. It would be nice that they would sell to TUST even, thats if some sort of set in stone clause was put i...

Yeah, you're right there, it was quite small for it really. The Quo were bloody good mind you, as a 14 year old lad I was impressed, but the sound was too much in the tiny venue. I remember my mates camping out to get Genesis tickets, they even got their pic in the paper. I wasnt bothered to see the...

Yeah

I was beginning to wonder what ambitions the TUST may have and what would be the ultimate goal. Any chance we had went when GI/Osborne got involved. I said just before it happened and impending doom was predicted that if the club needed a cash injection then they should have turned to the fanbase. I...

You missed iron maiden who also played there :) Ahem, without sounding pedantic, Transvision Vamp with lead singer and 80's teen boy crush Wendy James (bit rough now) also played there as did Status Quo twice, saw them in 89. I remember my mate was a mad Meatloaf fan but are parents wouldnt let us ...

Basically it said about a TUST general meeting and you can come along if you sign up and join before the meeting. I think they have missed an opportunity to sign up members, they should have a rallying meeting for all supporters and recruit a load of members on the day.

I get your point but to be honest they need to have this sort of meeting or gathering for all supporters just to get their message across and recruit members. I dont think todays leaflet exercise wil gain many extra members but it would have if it was inviting all to attend with a view to joining.

]Good to see some people distributing leaflets on the way to the ground today. How many roughly were taken up? Still there are many fans who dont get it, dont know about Osborne or dont feel how much in the shit TUFC are. They certainly dont understand about TUST. After reading the leaflet may I say...

Clarke - Despite a few dropped balls and dodgy parries he pulled off a string of very good vital saves. Romain - Worked hard, constant movement, battled on his own (which I thought was a shocking decision), at least he can control the ball a bit. Young - Tried hard for much of the game, one of the b...

I really dont know what to say anymore about this club, team, management, hierarchy and owner but I especially dont know what I can say to describe what goes on out on the pitch. Never have I seen a TUFC side so bereft of confidence, they look absolutely shot. Everything just seemed half hearted, es...
