The man with two hats?

No one has actually blamed Thea don't think any of us can ever pay back Thea in money or gratitude for what the Bristow family has done for our club . Thea is not a business person and freely admits that, she needed support and didn't get it from any quarter, as a result bad decisions have been mad...

League restructuring

It is no secret that the majority of lower league and indeed conference clubs are struggling, some more than others. Some are more effectively managed and operated than others and some simply have bigger crowds and more resources than others. It is so very sad to see clubs with a great tradition and...

Torquay United set for a take over ?

Unless he is a multimillionaire with 'money to burn' - somewhat like Mrs Bristow - Okay, so he may well want to make the club more viable, but there has to be something in it for him, and in this day and age that something has to be MONEY! Exactly. I'd have thought that was implicit. So other than ...

"If anyone neutral was to compare our squad to others I'd be very surprised if they didn't put us top eight" Against what criteria? Why? Can any different manager get better results out of 1 set of players, sometimes, not always. I don't know how many on here still do any sport seriously,...

Torquay United set for a take over ?

I don't think anybody but himself will truly know if Mr Thomas is genuine in his 'interest' in TUFC but it is more positive to believe the best in someone than to spend all of the while doubting. Unless that person is a politician, member of the clergy or admits to enjoying saturday night television...

:lol: Billy Bodin making a success of league football will never happen in a million years and that includes getting a hat trick against York. I'm usually a sucker for bad luck but what you suggest just isn't possible. ;-) No surprise my 10,000th post has to include Billy Bodin..................... :O

Another Manager Goes

Aldershot after losing 0-1 at home last night to Kidderminster have today sacked manager Andy Scott. Aldershot are slipping closer to the relegation zone faster than we are. Whatever is happening off the pitch at the moment CH needs more League points not only for the team's safety but also for his...

Emile Sinclair signs for the Minstermen on a deal until summer 2016. Whilst not an ex Gull, his signing led me to the Northampton Town forum to see what they were saying about him and i stumbled upon a few posters who confirmed that Billy Bodin began training with the Cobblers today with a view to a...

Team Spirit

Sources? Have there been any noises from 'the dressing room' to suggest CH has lost it? I wouldn't read to much in to what any manager says in public, The results and performances on the pitch are still the same though. =D Whether CH throws tea cups or whether he takes the players out for dinner an...

Politics

Yeah, and there is absolutely nothing anybody can do about it so now what happens? On a similar theme but rather more small scale, perhaps those lofty bods in the tree canopies at Oxfam should maybe filter some of their 'generous' salary down to the people who give up their time to keep them in empl...

Torquay United set for a take over ?

unfortunately I don't think there are enough fans who could stump up £100, see the crowd funding total so far. And it would probably require 300 or 4 hundred to stump up at least £1000 each. It could be done, BUT... we would have to accept part -time football and most probably conf south. Which act...

Torquay United set for a take over ?

What are the options? Get taken over or continue to lose cash until the club goes under? Ok so you spotted the deliberate mistake, the last one isn't really an option - it's an inevitability. The first one is the only option. If some 'geezers' come in and destroy the club then it would have happened...
