And they've still got 3 away games to play plus Eastbourne home which has yet to be arranged.
At least Dartford is early in this run of fixtures.

But quite ridiculous for a team from Cornwall to play one from Devon in Gloucester.

Torquay's match against Truro on Tuesday, April 9 has been selected for live National League TV coverage.

So has Truro's home match against Yeovil on April 11th.

Bizarre it will be in Gloucester but good news for any Midlands based supporters! No doubt there will be more TUFC fans there than Truro fans.

And now changed again to Monday 8th April

This seriously is beyond a joke. Once again booked the afternoon off work on the 16th. Now find its been moved again. I wonder if they believe clubs have fans in this tin pot league. Travelling to Gloucester to watch a team from Cornwall is bad enough. To keep changing the venue, date and time would have been beyond belief a few years ago following TUFC.

The club website says this match is now ‘all ticket’.

Also listed on the schedule of televised matches on National League TV.

COYY

All ticket, initial Torquay allocation 1000 tickets,
segregation..... How many do they think will be going up to Gloucester on a Monday night !

What an absolute farce. This is a game we must win. Possibly a slight positive is that they dont play their preceding game until 7.45pm on Saturday night.

You would think being part time that could have an impact but who knows.

Agree what a farce, move location, move day then last minute make it all ticket.

You suspect that the plan is for nobody to attend, and beat Taunton v Maidstone.

My second “home” game of the season on a Conference North pitch, I am trying to remember what the lowest attendance League match, we have had, I have seen.

Could be a massive game though Obviously Truro will have no supporters but I wouldnt mind betting there will be quite alot of ours.

Whilst its farcical its so important to us so the more fans we get there the better.

Sorry but this season has been just an absolute joke . I finally realise how football in general has nothing whatsoever to do with the fans .
When we were deducted 10 points for merely suggesting that we were possibly going into administration I just naively thought to myself …… why when a club is struggling financially to survive would a governing body think it’s helpful to either that club or any other club in that league to punish them and their fans on top of the existing problem.
The answer is that tradition , community and compassion within football just doesn’t exist in this modern world.
It’s all about money and control .

There is a documentary on the internet called Gate Money which details what the National League did with the lottery grant given to the league to help clubs through the pandemic when supporters were not allowed to attend matches. It is well worth an hour of your time.

Truro have rested their first team for tonights game against Aveley. They’ll be fresh and well up for it on Monday.
