Thanks for the response, Tust. So these will be ‘minutes’ approved by Clarke Osborne. I had hoped for a frank and open statement/report from my Tust board, rather than an anodyne picture of what Mr Osborne wishes me to see or know. We never really got any reports on what came out of the monthly meet...

Look forward to receiving it.

Can you please confirm whether or not you are running this report/statement past Clarke Osborne before issuing it to members? Thanks.

One of my best mates dad's was the Chaplin at Plymouth back then, I would regularly chat to him about his visits to see McCormick in jail, and one thing was clear, the remorse was real. He certainly didn't view himself above the law. This horrifies me. Any conversations between McCormick and any ch...

... Owers ... has assembled a better squad of players than we had at the start of the season ... this squad of players would have easily been nowhere near the bottom had we started the season with them. Unfortunately it appears that we were so far behind by the time its al been impossible to catch ...

If other proper revenue streams were put in place, alongside the fortnightly football, what's not to like about Plainmoor? Trouble is (and I'm no nimby, heaven knows), but with the best will in the world, the problem is the parking. The stadium is tucked away in a warren of tiny residential streets...

Ah, I'm much more at home with this sort of stuff. Readers may be interested in the article at the following link ... https://countrysquire.co.uk/2018/03/13/council-traumatises-whole-neighbourhood/ ... much of which is not factually correct, of course. But the main thrust remains. And, of course, co...

Oops, ignore me.

I accept that I know little about football, and less about refereeing. And yes, I chose to stay at home last night and watch City v Liverpool rather than traipse up to Plainmoor and be completely, entirely and totally depressed by yet another poor home performance. So I can’t comment on our game. I’...

It was back in November that you posted: 'It seems to fit with information I've shared here recently. If TUFC is to be sold, then GI won't want to sell it as a 'division' of theirs; they'll want to sell it as a stand-alone company. And any buyer in their right mind wouldn't want to buy a bit of GI;...

Merse is alluding on BTPIR that he has a feeling Osborne is ready to pull the plug... I pointed out on BTPIR months ago now that the word was that Mr Osborne would be handing over the reins at the end of this season. May, I heard. Haven't been able to get back onto that site for yonks, so can't con...

With the greatest of respect, I don't give a stuff for your assumptions. You cannot possibly know what triggers mental illness in any other human being. No-one, with any certainty can. I have no idea about Mahrez one way or the other, but I can tell you - and with great certainty - that your notion ...

Billy Kee. Ordinary bloke trying to make a living, always gives it his best and suffering from a genuine crisis of mental health. Riyadh Mahrez. Greedy and selfish. I don't think you can be so dismissive of Mahrez. How would you like your whole life laid bare for everyone to feel free to sift throu...

The Herald Express USED to be quite good. That was in the old, old days when they published daily and had 'proper' news hounds; people like Allan Tudor and Alex Ali. This nonsense would never have got past them.

In the interests of stuff being in the public domain, it might be interesting to note that The Spires College (it's not an academy, Merse) is the only secondary-level school in the Bay that is still under local authority control. In case anyone feels moved to contact the council's representatives on...

That is a superb idea Soupdragon and I will think about this. Someone will need to be on hand to dish them out on matchdays so a bit of a process has to be formulated. What I am hoping is that in the future there will be a dedicated person who looks after the interest of the disabled supporters on ...
