FA Cup stick or twist?
Off to Wimborne on Saturday with the squad starting to come together. Stick with the team or let the fringe have a go? Hanson, Crowe, Lovett, da silva to start???? Orkeep the league 11 and go all out?? I think with a whole week's rest before Hemel away, I'd be going with the same 11 and securing th...

Torquay United v Chelmsford City Sat 9 Sept KO 3pm
Building on an improved performance against Farnborough, there was a really good grit and determination to stand up to the Chelmsford challenge, which let's be honest are one of the strongest teams that will come to Plainmoor this season and they were right up for it eh! But fair play we didn't let ...

Torquay United v Farnborough Tue 5TH KO 7.45
For me, that's our best performance of the season so far. I know that's not saying a lot, but there's hope. I think Moxey starting made a big difference, as well as Will Jenkins-Davies suddenly looking like he's adapted to this league. Far cry from the rabbit-in-the-headlights we've seen up until no...

Not sure about anyone else but the streaming service was pretty much unwatchable for me. Cuts out every 10 seconds despite having a fast download speed (~50mbps)

Dover Athletic v Torquay United - 3pm 5th Aug
I'm wondering whether today's game will actually be on.
Arrived in Dover about 10am and it has been raining non-stop since.
Can't imagine Dover's pitch has decent drainage facilities installed.
Mind you it's on a slope so maybe it will all run down to one end

Dover Athletic v Torquay United - 3pm 5th Aug
Not sure whether the website is up to date but Dover seem to only have 10 first team players: https://www.doverathletic.com/list/first-team-squad-2022-23/ There are some recent signings on there so I was assuming it was, and I have heard some talk about them struggling to put a team together this ye...

Players Under Contract
Watching the Back-to-Training footage posted by the club on YouTube, I couldn't help notice a couple of things Firstly Dan Martin was there, so he's still in contention for a contract it seems, presumably if he can prove he has got over all last year's fitness problems. Secondly, I couldn't spot Ros...

Torquay United v Bromley - Tues 28th Feb
Oh dear what a poor display. So embarrassing.
We're so bad and we have to accept this is now relegation to NLS.
I wonder whether we will change manager for next season's NLS campaign?

New Signing - Lewis Collins
In his interview he gave me the impression he has left Newport for good, so much so I had to check that it was actually a loan move. I wonder whether his contract expires at the end of this season and he's gone off to put himself in the shop window for a summer move. Maybe GJ is looking at this as a...

Gary Johnson, stick or twist?
It is completely unfathomable that Gary Johnson is still in charge. I can't think of any precedent where a manager has underachieved this immensely and hasn't been sacked. No other club would allow their aimless and inevitable demise without making a change to see if they could rescue themselves fro...

Southend v Torquay Sat 03/09/22
Biggest problem position for me is right back/right wing back, we only have Crowe who can comfortably play there and he looks at least 1 or 2 divisions below this level. Every time I've seen him this season he's either out of position or being skinned, conceding goals and chances we can't afford. Pl...

Squad 22/23
This season's squad is noticeably thin on wingers, especially now with O'Connell, and presumable Rogers too, leaving. I think Evans is the only one who can play on the wing, so will be interesting to see if we bolster this position now with more signings/loanees or our systems of play don't require ...
