Nicholson

Just as a matter of interest. In my 51 years of supporting TUFC Nicholson is by no means the slowest player to represent the club; that award must go to.....Alex Watson!

Torquay United v Bristol Rovers match thread

I'll be there along with other senile delinquents at the back of the Pop. side (half way line). Feeling a little more optimistic now; just hoping I'll walk way from the games happy that I've seen some decent and committed football.

Original names

One of the best things about this site is the names/aliases that contributors come up with. As the possessor of one of the feeblest and most unoriginal names (wivelgull) I am always interested and amused in other concoctions. However, the prize (at least for over the last couple of years) for the si...

Brassed Off?

There are three posters on this site who always talk sense: brucie, hector and tomogull.

Torquay United v Southend United - 14/12/13

If it's a stinker tomorrow then it will mark the end of the (fairly) well-suppressed patience of the fans. A draw would give Mr. Knill a little breathing space (it looks like Brass is off) but that's all. As I forecast earlier in the season, we WILL be relegated; there will be the occasional win and...

Crowd funding

About twenty years ago I bought £100 worth of Torquay United shares; have got bugger all for the 'investment' except for the annual statement (which they're required by law to send out to shareholders).

Torquay United v Southend United - 14/12/13

Oh Gawd, I'm going to have to go! I've legitimately missed the last two matches (luckily as it turned out), but I've no excuse for missing this one. Imagine it, though: Despairing supporters, silent stands, wretched football, no points (are you kidding? Southend are top - we're bottom); another blea...

So how do we start to get back on track??

We are back to square one, so we had better do what we have done before in moments of peril: 1. Get in a 'firefighter' (on a short term basis, but pay him well) 2. If we survive, or if we begin to look that we might survive, make plans to bring in a new - and preferably young and enthusiastic - mana...

scunthorpe United v Torquay United - 30/11/13

Rock bottom
As it was in the beginning (obvious after the first game vs Wimbledon)
Is now (and for the rest of the season)
And ever shall be (no escape from the Conference this time).

Torquay United v Plymouth Argyle - 26/11/13

As brucie knows only too well, it's the long drive home that's the worst - if you've lost and lost badly as we have this season. Perhaps my 100 mile round trip pales into insignificance besides some people's driving efforts; even so, it's enough to put me off going tonight. Don't worry, brucie, you ...
