Torquay United Fans Forum

Showing a player onto his wrong-foot applies wherever that player plays. It is a pitfall of the player technically, and a reason why he won't get above the level he is at now.

There's no way in the world that you'd convince some of the older fans that Frank O'Farrell wasn't the best manager we've ever had.

Not that I want him at Torquay necessarily, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Sean Canham at Torquay next season.

Think you could argue that Zebs and Branston had equally good chances to score. Agree with Modgull, so annoying to see a professional do that.

Wouldn't it be good to have Mark Robins? Don't think he would move down south but I think he would be a crackin' manager for us.

Robinson is very easy to defend against, didn't score in his last 12 matches for us and might as well have a roller skate on his left foot.

I have to admit, that was a little harsh, but not wildly inaccurate as he is very slow. He can pick out a pass brilliantly, granted, but at this level the engine is so important. I have a lot of hope in Lathrope and Oastler to be strong central midfielders with O'kane providing the service.

I take it you want Leroy Rosenior?!

He's welcome to Branston (feel we had the best of him), Stanley (quick brain but a bit of a carthorse imho) and Robinson (any player who can't use his left foot has no respect from me) and although Zebs had his best season I don't think he has the best football brain (particularly under pressure). I would hope we hold on to all the youngsters in/around our first team, Torquays future, Rowe-Turner, Ellis, Lathrope, Oastler, O'Kane, Macklin, Halpin, Kee and Yeoman. I hope Bevan signs a new contract, we sign a Colossus at centre-back and centre-forward and a quick left-winger.

Buckle is a good manager who did a great job for us. It's important to realise this and wish him luck in his career, whilst also realising that there are better managers than Paul Buckle who we can afford. The work of Damian Davey can't go without mention, we owe a great deal to him for the season we've had, hope he stays.

But thanks for giving us an insight into the thoughts and feelings of the players! Jesus, why does everything have to be so friggin' negative?!

Wondering what my fellow fans are doing to help create an atmosphere at Old Trafford? Flags , banners , inflatables, flares?!, instruments /new songs , costumes etc....

Why do people feel they have to reply to topics they don't care about - ignore it and move on to one you are interested in.

Shrewsbury are a very good side, luckily we never saw the best of them, I believe Torquay had the upperhand mentally more than anything else. Hope the Shrews get promotion next season, I'm sure they will as they have the set-up for League 1, and I really hope they absolutely pulvarise Crawley next season with the fans really rubbing salt in the wounds whilst doing so.

Predictions for tonight's games, think we'll nick it 1 - 0 and Accrington will take Stevenage to penalties with Stevenage winning them. Just hope tonight isn't too stressful.
