Nicho backed

Lets hope we do get a centre forward but its all a bit late, we still need an experienced centre back, we got one in Raccine but when he got injured we replaced him with.............Anderson, ( about as much experience as me) who was at least partly responsible for both goals, though McGinty was als...

Message to Clarke Osborne

Quite right Jerry, as a matter of interest who was the guy in the cap to the right of the dugout, standing up, clapping
a lot and encouraging , was that Hedges ?

Should Nicholson be sacked

In reply to Merses comment on the goalkeeper, agree he was partly to blame though Anderson should have dealt with the long ball, but Moore is the least of our problems.Not sure how many games you have seen this season but Moore comes out and takes crosses better than any keeper I have seen at Plainm...

Should Nicholson be sacked

Yes, there seems to be unbelievable complacency, Nicholson said in the paper before saturday, 'this is nowhere near the dire situation of last season' if he still thinks that the bloke is deluded, all the other teams bar maybe Southport are picking up points, if we dont beat them next saturday its a...

Torquay United v Guiseley

Still numb after that, but just to say I agree with Portugulls and Forevers posts, this wasnt another Sutton,
we could easily have won this game 3-0
You cant blame Nicholson for the two goals, but overall he has to carry the can, and it has been very poor all season

Would you go and watch Torquay United in the Conference South?

I have missed on average one home game every two seasons and its been like that since 1963 If we were in the play off picture in the Nat South I would go but if we were struggling below halfway I think that would be it even for a diehard like me Apologies to younger members but it makes me weep to w...

Torquay Utd V Sutton Utd 25/02

You are probably right Yellowsmiffy, we wont be getting the experienced pros though ! Think the player we miss most from this time last season is Racchi and Rees was a huge improvement on the midfielders we have at present, Young excepted. Also of course the back four last year was so much better An...

Torquay Utd V Sutton Utd 25/02

Nearly 24 hrs later I am still incensed and seething after that 'performance' Agree with Tomogulls post, I thought Nicho would change it , if not when the keeper went off at least 15 minutes later, when as quite often the opponents realise our bark is worse than our bite, Lathrope may look 'fantasti...

Torquay Utd V Sutton Utd 25/02

Unforgiveable - the keeper not even tested, he wasnt even mobile and was almost as fat as pasty man like someone else said where do we go from here ? Nicholson says the players owe us one on tuesday, how many bloody times have we heard that. We are just so poor all over the pitch, really cant see us...

Torquay Utd V Sutton Utd 25/02

Yes, I thought they passed it and kept it better than us but then most teams do
Will go for a 1-1 draw, but one we should be looking to win
Go on Damon, shock us all and stick one in the top corner from 25 yards

New Players/Loan

Robin Stubbs - last 4 posters actually, dont forget me Ok physical presence if you prefer that to big lump, I dont particularly want to see it hoisted up to them all match either, but thats what we do a lot so may as well have a big man up there. I just think Williams would benefit from it, pick up ...

New Players/Loan

Still no news on a new striker, obviously the money is there for one if Keiffer Moore was all set to come, but that was 2 months ago ! there must be some big lump out there willing to come here, would rather have Callum Ball than no-one meanwhile we continue our slide towards the Nat South, sorry to...

Barrow V Torquay United

He had potential.... but also had carthorse potential, seems like he chose the latter as his career has never taken off
Played well at Swindon in a League Cup tie but that was about it, mind you playing up front in a struggling side with the
holidaying Karl Hawley didn't help
