FA Cup 4th Qualifying Round
A game we would have probably have lost pre-Johnson. You’re never going to beat these teams 10-0. A much welcomed £9,375 to the club. Hopefully we get Skelmersdale away in 1st round and I can be the local person in the crowd.

FA Cup 4th Qualifying Round
Neither skybet or bet 365 are offering odds either. Is it a done thing that we will qualify, to me it’s a massive banana skin

Other than we beat the bookies favourites for the titlebrucie wrote: ↑03 Oct 2020, 17:50 They weren't really robbed though were they. They had nigh on a fully squad. Ours were all over the shop with players out of position and a makeshift defence.
Promotion favourites who I think had played six friendlies - double the amount we had managed. Sure they should have won easily but having said I thought they wilted badly in the last ten minutes when we created three or four good chances to have won the game.
Hard to judge anything from that game really.

Macclesfield Town have been wound up - owe more than £500,000.
I have great memories of going Macclesfield, I was at that 2-1 fixture and was indeed at that 3-3 we threw away. Real shame, a proper friendly club, just however surrounded by Manchester limited its supporter base. It’s just the start of things to comedesperado wrote: ↑17 Sep 2020, 20:10 Yes they beat us in their first ever game in the FL 2-1 (Andy Gurney) Remember a few 3-3's with them, think we were 3-0 up in 15 minutes in one of them. Also remember a 4-0 win in Leroy's promotion season when Kevin Hill scored a magnificent perfectly executed bicycle kick.

Torquay United v Hemel Hempstead (pre season friendly) 12 Sep 2020
I would prefer we have results like this rather than have won 5-0. nelson will now get man managed by Johnson, but this is what pre season is about. Playing in front of no fans must have been strange equally. Good start against an opposition that was up for it, and only a league below. Work in progress but that was always going to be the answer.

Excellent initiative from the club, just hope they do the same for the other home friendlies as I’m working Saturday all day

Fixtures 2020/21
Well it’s all been a bit doom and gloom since March, and I sincerely hope everyone and close family has got through this pandemic. So let’s look forward to the forthcoming season with the fixtures being released at 11am tomorrow. Who knows what % of fans will be able to attend but getting some normality is well due. Hopefully the NL will allow a % Of away fans to attend games. We all know we will play either Yeovil or Weymouth over Christmas but let’s hope for a balanced set of season fixtures.

National League Play-Offs .......
DWB wrote: ↑20 Jul 2020, 09:09 The playoffs are between the teams finishing 2nd to 7th. The teams finishing 4th to 7th have a mini playoff first with 4th playing 7th and 5th playing 6th. This is done on a single fixture basis with the teams finishing higher at home. So Yeovil played Barnet (who finished 7th due to the final league positions determined on a ‘points per game basis’ having only played 34 games Compared to most teams having played around 37) and Boreham Wood played Halifax.
The next round of games sees the teams finishing 2nd and 3rd playing at home to the 2 winners of the first round of games, therefore Harrogate now play Boreham Wood and Notts County play Barnet.
The 2 winners will then play in the final at a neutral venue! Hopefully that explains it?
SIMPLES !!!!!
Can’t fault your explanation but Barnet had played 35

Jamie Reid's Off......
All players out of contract in National league expired on 2nd May.forevertufc wrote: ↑05 May 2020, 16:50 Jamie Reid regardless of the fact he's turned down a new contract offer from TUFC, will still be contracted to TUFC until that contract's end date, which I'm guessing will be in July, his employment with his new club will not start until his current contract hits, it's expiry date.
He's (Jamie Reid) almost certainly been in receipt of contract offers from more than one League 2 club, this will be the right move at the right time for Reidy, he will 26 before next seasons due kick date, his stock has never been so high, may never be again.
Jamie Reid has been a great servant of our club and personally wish him all best.

Not sure Harrogate will agree with option 1. Barrow may be 4 points clear but tomorrow would have been Harrogate v BarrowDonuts76 wrote: ↑31 Mar 2020, 16:50 NL clubs have been given 48 hours to decide amongst 4 options. One option is give barrow the title, drop to 23 teams, meaning 3 relegate and drop a christmas fixture.. no idea the other options but they are probably all more or less guessable...
Strangely, given that CO will want to protect his investment, it may actually work to our benefi, in a depressing normative sort of way...

Torquay United v Chorley 29/2/20
What a crazy league this is. Win this game we could be 3 points off a playoff place lose it be 3 points from a relegation place(based on 4 being relegated). Personally I’m being optimistic, let’s beat this Chorley team and get in the promotion mix. Chorley away back in late November was a really bad experience, I was full of flu, the team was bloody hopeless with the injury crisis at its height, the away support was ready for a battle with the Chorley knob heads from Wigan and the toilets had no electricity.
Basically let’s put Chorley to the gauntlet on Saturday. Shame little is out for season but we have adequate cover, I’m going 4-1 Torquay COYY.

Barrow v Torquay United, 1st February 2020
Barrow is an awful town, full of inbreds, has one road in one road out, can’t comment on the train network but if run by northern rail good luck. The away end is uncovered and with rain forecast for Saturday good luck to you all that are going. If you are doing an overnight stay the Wetherspoon is a hotel.
