Nobody could do any better though, you know how limited our resources have been. He's having to do everything on his own and now he even has to put up with a **** who just wants to take his job. Madness.

And I never doubt your support, just your ability to accept the obvious.

I appreciate that Nicholson is trying to do the job with both hands tied behind his back but he didn't have to sign Harrad and play him as a loan striker did he?

Harrad did ok last time because he was playing in a far better team. Harrad isn't better than what we have already (and that's saying something).

He has signed Jordan Lee (who he admitted that he had never seen play) and then dropped him after one game. McClunky - never got a game. What a about the loan signing from Plymouth, who sunk without the trace?

Lathrope - Another useless signing.

Appreciate we have no money but presumably Harrad is being paid - its a complete waste of money.

Appreciate he comments about GI - perhaps the answer is for no one at all to turn up and then GI can have their wishes granted. Either way the outcome is going to be the same because we are as good as relegated already.

This is the worst Torquay team there has ever been.

I feel your pain and most of what you say is correct. We need to unite to fight GI not Nicholson who is every bit as passionate about the club as any of us. Give him the means and he will achieve. This situation isn't his fault. No he's not immune from criticism but he's proved he can do the job on relatively little. Nobody could do it with what he has.

Is there any reason why GI should not immediately provide Nicho with a little money to strengthen his squad (apart from the fact that they are GI) ?

I understood, correct me if I am wrong, that Nicho had been told he could use the Blissett money to strengthen the squad.

They have; don't expect a signing(s) to materialise in the first 24 hours after the go ahead has been given. It takes a little while and I know of three 'on the stove' as you make your post ~ maybe today, maybe tomorrow; maybe not if they fall through but good signings and ones that are worth the time and effort, cost and research take a little time to materialise.

Remember, Keiffer Moore coming in required financing which was authorised but after all the work it fell through at the last minute and this is so indicative of what management is all about.

We're interested in signing Justin Hoyte on a free and he's in for talks. We're also looking at Racine from FGR.

I guess it depends on the money being made available to secure them.

What's he been doing since the summer when he was kicked out by Daggers? Is he match fit?

It's one thing to go for experience, it's another to have to book parking bays for zimmer frames.
