Can see this being a close game. Although one we'll win if we're up for it. Good test. COYY.

We will win 3-1. The team are bedding in and now with a mutual understanding of what their roles are together with grit and determination will see us move up the league.

Glad to see a lot more optimism about today on the Forum. Didn't see the Eastleigh match but sounds like there is spirit in the team so hopeful we can take that to the next level today. I think the difference will be made with better communication on the field and leadership. Get the guys to shout to each other (and at each other if that's positive!). Starting at the back let's get Speiss bossing the defence with Exodus organising them. Then Courtney has come into his own in the middle and hopefully Heslop can show his value now that he has a contract. Finally play the ball on the ground as we have skilful players and work it to the front men as opposed to just lobbing it up. C'mon you Gulls - play to feet, free up space and sharp crosses to the near post.
I'm confident I won't lose my voice for once as we'll be 2-0 winners........ OK hopefully lose it from cheering!

look forward to hearing you sing Charley the Gull !

I'd like to think we can win today but then, like so many others, I thought we'd beat Alfreton Town last season live on TV.........

Bringing the girls today so I'll be taking seats in the windy family stand......

can't wait, not as optimistic as all of you however, can see them being tougher than we think, bringing a couple of extra people with me to help with the gate figures, hopefully we'll put on a performance, COYY!

The value in this game is Torquay to be leading at half time (3.1 on betfair in the half time market) - that's a 69% increase on the true odds of 2.24.
There are no other angles in the game.

Headline is Lavelle-Moore starts...

What's the news on Courtney Richards?

1-1 half time then. Certainly not dull, although it sounds like we need to improve massively in the second half. A win is there if we can get on top. I would sub Lavelle-Moore now before he's sent off.

Injured in training yesterday. Sounds like we're lucky to be level going in at the break but ended the half strongly.

Quigley on, Malechi off I hope, he's played well but close to getting sent off

Who the heck is the summariser??

Bring back Mr Breed and the Undertaker!

Any updates at all?

1-1. We have been by far the better team since I started listening, however, some good defending from Guiseley has prevented us from scoring. In stoppage time now.

Oh dear a terrible attendance, 1558. I don't know how many away fans there are but that figure is worrying.
