Sadly the bench looks lacking to me.

Full time/Part time

Location Location Location.
Let's be honest, some of our players are miles off others we see week in, week out from visiting teams. A London cabbie earning £100k plus, playing part time for a team within 50 miles of London will not located to Torquay. Simple. . .

Ben Wynter

And before anyone asks or thinks about it. He will not be returning to Torquay. His family and his partners family are all from the London area.

Just remember the great days he had for us and that goal at Woking in front of the Ben Wynter stand.

Positive Thoughts only!

With my "positive" head on, I predict a 2-1 victory this weekend. I fully expect Yeovil to rest several first choice players. On the other hand we have to play our new additions to cover for the "crocks". The league reamains our priority but the tile is gone, so we are aiming fo...

MOTM - Havant

This is a tough one for all the right reasons. Donnellan - won everything and covered across the back three very well. Archer - not the finished article, but cover large areas, gave the midfield legs. Williams - some great attaching lines and took his goal well. Ash - was a right handful. Got their ...

Ethon Archer

I firmly believe this is exactly the type of squad player we should be signing. If we could get the first choice 13 /16 players right, a handful of guys like this would be very welcome. Some will work out and develop, while other may not. I believe the negative comments reflect on the first choice e...

George Edwards

Let clear up a few points, I was standing beside the guy asking good questions. I thank him for this. George confined a few things. The new ground is still planned. The finances are very good. It became clear getting players to relocate is a big issue. As others have pointed out, as the group got la...

Hampton + Richmond v Torquay United Sat 28/10/23 3PM

We apparently had a good budget, but getting players to relocate is a challenge. Be honest, is location hurting us in the current climate!

Sadly, this could be the result that highlights our shortcomings. Being a cup game, I can't see any loan signings appearing.

Torquay United v Maidstone United, Saturday 7th October, 3pm

So many weeks I seem to say the opposition looks bigger, stronger, quicker, fitter, sharper and more up for it. As Portugull says this team is nowhere near promotion material, we'll do very well to make the top six. It really is quite alarming how easily teams create chances against us and Talking ...

Torquay United v Maidstone United, Saturday 7th October, 3pm

Torquay 1 Maidstone 2 Sadly, I just get the feeling the bench is not strong enough. It is great to see Asa back, but I can't see him playing more than 20 minutes. The others are simply not going to impact the game in a positive way for us. What is going on with recruitment and getting loan players i...
