Torquay United Fans Forum

I find it hilarious that people can describe Yeoman as not good enough for the conference. Please tell me, are any of our 'strikers' good enough for the conference? Hawley? Stockley? The answer is no. Hawley plays week in week out more or less (well not anymore) and when Stockley comes on, he looks...

From a friendly scunthorpe United Fan. I made the long trek and made a weekend of it. Your fans were extremely friendly but had "the thrown in towel attitude". Every person that I met, my friends and I assured them that that game was not going to be a walk in the park and the game proved ...

There was nothing wrong with the formation or team but Hawley was the only player in the club who could hold the ball in the formation. I agree that Coulthirst should have gone down the middle later in the game and there was no need for Yeoman OR Benyon. I don't agree with you about Bodin, I think h...

Unbelievable that some fans think Hawley is a good footballer at this level. He wouldnt get into most conference south teams. I don't f ing care if he got 30 f ing goals last season, for us he is one of the worst number 9's we have ever had. He cant head the ball, can't beat a player, can't shoot, ...

I am not saying there is any difference between a striker or fulback but at a pro club the've got all week to sort out who's taking the penalties there could have been two practicing but we have none. There should have been a nominated penalty taker, it's different taking a penalty in a match to tra...

But our forward line is shocking, as, is our midfield. However, look at how much more threatening Coulthirst was yesterday. He looked more dangerous in that 80 minutes or however long it was, than Benyon and Hawley have looked all season and that is with the same midfield behind him. Our forwards a...

For me it's not just about the price. If we stayed up, I'd renew straight away. This season, we've watched a conveyor belt of young loan players come and go. We've signed players who are clearly not up to the job and continuously played others because they're the managers mates. We've seen players ...

As sad as it is, this will be our last away game in the football league and probably for a while. Now, I know it's very difficult to organise things like this for Torquay United fans and this may be false hope, but here it is. Lets make our last away game in the football league as a good laugh! Let...

In all fairness the team played well yesterday first half and if we had scored the penalty who knows. Bodin seems to have come in for stick but he was the reason that we played well first half and nearly all attacks came through him. If Hargreaves had played Lathrope infront the back four on his own...

Disappointed that Hawley was the main striker and thought we could have played 4-1-3-2 in stead of 4-2-3-1 as we did not get Bodin forward enough and Hawley is not quick enough on his own. One of the best first halfs of the season as we passed the ball well and looked the far better side. Scunthorpe...

Hopefully Coop will get some game time tomorrow - not that he can make much of a difference to us staying up now but he'd surely be an asset in the conference - don't know much about this Coulthirst but can't be worse than what we got at the moment best guess for me ...............Rice................

I hate to appear to be slagging off a particular player, but why all this affection for selecting BB for every game despite his record ? - yes he has potential but how many goals has he scored this season ? - 1. He just cannot hit the target - he had the last kick to win the match against Burton, a...

Back from Portugal and bought my tickets online for last 3 home games. This is Torquay United so we will finish the season in a blaze of glory but go down on goal difference!! Seriously I believe if CH can motivate the players AND pick the right team we can win this match against Scunny. First game...
