Macclesfield Town v Torquay United 6th August

Post by lucy6lucy »

I thought as we enter the eve of our opening league game with no match thread, I would start the ball rolling. Is anyone going to do match threads this season?

This should be a tight match with mid table a high possibility finish for both clubs. It's great news we have a team coach. This will no doubt improve our preparations for away matches this season. The team nicho has built over the summer is on paper a team of Hugh potential. And with more to come, is a promotion challenge a possibility.

I'm going for a 2-2 draw.

Just wanted to come on and wish you all a great season and hope that the Gulls can get themselves sorted once and for all off the pitch and get some momentum on it starting with Moss Rose tomorrow. Always loved my trips there especially the 3-3 we had when Branno got a header in front of the away terrace and also the FA Cup game against Stockport when Benners somehow scored 3 goals in one game. Miracles do happen you see and they can happen again for TUFC.

Fingers crossed for all the fans for this season and best of luck. COYY!!

Lucy, anyone can start a match/matchday thread. I suppose it's down to who enters the first post. If somebody gets in first, simply add your own comments to their thread, taking care not to repeat any information already posted. But if somebody declares their intention to start a thread for a particular game, courtesy demands that they be given time to do so.

No Nina. No plans to take in any Torquay games or York games. Having said that I might, just might go to York v Torquay :lol: just for the melancholy of it all.

Hope you and the family are well. As we say up 'ere, you're a proper fan Nina.

1st game is always hard to call. Macc are a decent passing team with pace so not such good news for ourCentre Backs. Do think we hav a lot of goals in us though so a ridiculous 3-3 draw for me.

Macclesfield are similar to us - prioritising quality over quantity. They have a decent side and should be in the top half. It will be a good test of where we stand.

I'm now a Whitby Town season ticket holder (the club offered, like TUFC, a deal I couldn't refuse) but, if possible (i.e. if fixtures don't clash) I will go to York (certainly), Gateshead (possibly), North Ferriby and Guiseley (both possibly). But, you never know: Whitby Town vs Torquay United could be a possible F. A. Cup Rd 1 draw.

What a terrible half that was. Second to every ball and yet to seriously test their keeper. One thing that is abundantly clear so far is that Lathaniel Rowe-Turner is no Dan Butler, we're really missing him at left back, missing MacDonald and Smith come to mention it, we look very shaky at the back. Macclesfield should be at least 2 up, something needs to change at half time otherwise this will be a very poor way to start the season.

Not a great first half, but we've got in at 0-1. Gateshead away last year is the plan to follow - we got battered there and were lucky to just be 1-0 down, then from nowhere won 2-1.
