Torquay v Eastleigh 13/01/2018 (PP)

Come on lads, bring home the three points. Eradicate those silly errors that lead to cheap goals and we'll be in with a shout!

Wrexham v Torquay 6/1/18

I too was one of the 67, your assessment is pretty much spot on. We certainly didn't deserve a 4-0 defeat, but if you can't defend and score as a team you will struggle. What pissed me off the most was at the end of the match. At least 7/8 of the players including the dick Owers simply walked off w...

MOTM - Wrexham

I only had to drive 90 mins for the game today, so 2 of the 67 at least didn't have a massive journey!

MOTM ...tricky... perhaps Young or O'Sullivan.

An open letter to Clarke Osbourne.

Your point about fan ownership is interesting. Look at Exeter for example - they've come from the brink and now look at them. The model is fairly simple for me - have the best training facilities you can, the best academy and staff that you can and then sell on those players that can play at a highe...

Wrexham v Torquay 6/1/18

Just got back from the game...although the scoreline was 4-0 we were actually the better side at times. Their 3 goals in the first half were really so easy though, comical defending sadly. Goal 1 a free header, goal 2 a free header then an error by the keeper spilling it over the line and goal 3 the...

Management options

I watched Stourbridge play on Saturday, beating Whitby Town 1-3. They spent the entire second half (they were 1-2 up) with ten men behind the ball, having parked the bus and then anchored it. This was frustrating stuff, but not really exciting, adventurous or inventive. It did the trick but the foo...

I really like Gary Hackett the manager of Stourbridge. He's been there a long time, won promotions and had some fantastic cup runs.

National League Fixture release 2017/18

I've got my eyes on away games at Solihull, Tranmere, Chester, Wrexham, Macclesfield and the London clubs!

Looking at the map of conference clubs, Eastleigh looks the nearest to Torquay now. Will that be our most likely Boxing Day and New Years Day fixture?

Josh Gowling Signs

I used to watch Kidderminster play quite often and Gowling was always a reliable solid player. Really looking forward to seeing him in the yellow shirt. His character seems absolutely spot on too on the YouTube video

Solihull v Torquay 28-3-17

Just got in from the game. What an absolutely fantastic win. All in all I think we deserved it. Great support from our fans too - I'm lucky I only had to travel a short distance but I was so proud to see so many gulls who made the journey. This club has so much potential in the right hands, which it...

Solihull v Torquay 28-3-17

How many do we reckon will be there in yellow tonight and which stand do we go to? Just dug my retro 1998 scarf out of the loft.

Be aware the last bus back to Solihull Station leaves Damson park at 21.28 so you'll need to book a cab; fookin' God forsaken location!!

Thanks for the info! What is the BTPIR thread? Sorry!

Solihull v Torquay 28-3-17

Fred I would be interested in knowing the best way to get to the ground. Solihull train station seems far away and Birmingham international looks closer but it seems to be a little deceiving as you have to walk a very long route to get there according to Google maps. Seems as though driving is the w...
