Could there be a glimmer of hope

I’ve gone from wanting to punch each and every one of them in the balls a few weeks ago to wanting to high five all concerned today! Dissapointed when they equalised as it sounded like we were massively on top but they’ve dug deep and deserved the win!

The table looks a lot more rosier today, even if a few clubs above have got games in hand. Was nice for other results to go our way as well.

I definitely don’t want to get my hopes up just yet, this is Torquay United after all...

I would say a lot more like it, well done to Gary Owers for the signings he has made, He has a lot of stick of late so maybe time to give credit where its due.
he has made some decent signings, the gap is now closing.

A little early to give Owers the plaudits, he's signed a lot of dross until recently so let's be content with three games unbeaten and hope this run continues. I'll credit him if and when he gets us out of this mess.

well I think its a start Dave, we are quick to slag him off, just think with two decent results he deserves a bit of credit.

So, since I had a go at Owers and Kuhl as I walked out at 3 nil down to Bromley, we've seen a bit of a revival, coincidence?????

In seriousness, I begged him to go down fighting and they certainly are doing that, fair play. Good result today, still a long way to go. But who Knows!!!!

We would never of got that winning goal 6 weeks ago.

Well done TUFC, keep it up!!!!

so its down to you Goody! lol!

Full credit to Owers today, we were under the cosh and the easy option might have been to replace either Williams or Romain (even Dave Thomas was calling for it on commentary) with "fresh legs" (Keating or Reid) or even brought on a holding midfielder (Klukowski) to protect what we had - a point - but he stuck with them both and was fully rewarded when Romain grabbed the winner following a driven cross from Williams.

yew well done to the players and the manager, full credit.

hahahaha id like to think so!!! :na: :na:

Eventually found a side that Reid can not start in!

I do not like this constant sniping at Jamie Reid.

kevgull what will you say if Reid scores the goal which keeps us up?

All the players need our 100% support and it sounds like the away support for United today was unbelievable! COYY.

OK under a month ago after the shocker against Bromley, I said to my daughter it feels like I am going over to pay my respects(watching Dagenham & Sutton) I explained if we go down who knows what will happen to the club!!! Fast forward and today I just said to her I am about to be part of the greatest escape since Steve McQueen.... Really 2-1 away who really saw that especially after Maidenhead getting back to 1-1... Last 3 games no defeats 2 wins 1 draw(2 away games) We are showing the form of champions... Now I know we are still in the relegation zone there is along way to go, I will be told not to get carried away.. But come on you really have to start to believe it written in the stars.. Come on you Gulls

Great result, maintained all season, never give up, and whilst these last three results prove the point, including that draw at Macclesfield every one moaned about, there is indeed a mountain still to climb.

That's why I agree with portugull's sentiment, 100 % united behind the manager and team now, what looked unthinkable 3 weeks ago, is now on.
