Thank You Although the administration process is the latest, important step in securing Torquay United’s long-term future, it continues to be a testing time for everyone associated with the Club – be it players, staff or supporters. The unity shown by everyone continues to shine through though, and the determination to ensure that United’s future will be a brighter and more sustainable one is clear for all to see. Everyone here at Plainmoor remains hugely grateful, and humbled, by the continued support of our beloved Yellow Army, who continue to inundate us with messages of support and donations to help the Club continue fulfilling its 2023/24 fixtures. It has been said before, but we are only too happy to say it again – every single Club employee cannot thank you all enough for all the support you continue to show us. Every single donation – whatever the value – is hugely appreciated, with the spirit of the Football Family once again on full show this week, as the Community Trusts of Torquay and Exeter joining Plymouth’s Senior Greens in making donations to help our Football Club stay alive. Thanks to the continued support of the Yellow Army – and our friends from all across the local community and footballing world – the total donations received as of Wednesday 27th March has now reached an astonishing £29,489.32 Thank you all once again – we can assure you we will continue fighting for the best possible future for YOUR Football Club. The remainder of the season At present, the Club continues to function on a week-by-week basis whilst new ownership is sought, and until this process is completed, the Yellow Army’s continued support remains absolutely vital. We really can’t get through this without you. With this in mind, we can’t emphasise enough that every match ticket booked, every Club Shop item purchased, every pint in Boots & Laces drank, directly benefits TUFC, and helps keep the Club afloat. In addition to our designated PayPal Donations account, the Club will continue to run a number of fundraising promotions, which we hope supporters will continue to support, whilst gaining the opportunity of getting something back in return. A number of raffles and auctions have already captured the Yellow Army’s imagination, and there will more new ideas to come over the coming weeks! With boosting attendances at Plainmoor the most obvious and beneficial weapon the Club has in the fight for survival, and with only one more home fixture to come, we would dearly love the Yellow Army to turn out in force for our final home game of the season v Havant & Waterlooville on Saturday 20th April (3pm KO). Tickets for this fixture are available to purchase now, in addition to our Under-18s’ League Cup Final against Bridgwater the following weekend (27/04/24 3pm KO), which provides an additional opportunity to increase the Club’s income following the end of the first-team campaign. It’s also a fantastic way for supporters to witness United’s stars of the future in action, and show your support for our all-conquering Young Gulls! Your continued support, home and away, continues to astound us all, and we are truly privileged to be able to call upon what we will always consider to be the best fans in the country.
