Torquay United Fans Forum

Looking forward to the game tomorrow and a weekend on The English Riviera. Someone commented that there were loads of Leeds fans already in Torquay well that will increase as the ones who were in Cornwall and Plymouth head up the road, these will be joined by loads like myself and others head down to the bay for the weekend.

Hopefully there will be enough beer on offer. Lots of families going to be in attendance making a cracking atmosphere I hope.

MOT.

BTW is Man Fridays a decent restaurant as we are thinking of booking there for the Saturday night ?

The thing is reference home support is that 90% of our support hates the Chairman and thus boycott home games. However we do always sell out at away games, reference Bristol City away how could we have 2000 fans when the allocation was just 1800 ?

It is rare these days for Leeds to be granted a trip to the coast that does not involve a cold February mid week trip so this fixture was always going to be popular. If Bates goes in the next few weeks then expect a real party atmosphere from the travelling Leeds fans. Bates has raped our club for 7 years and we have had to listen to his false promises for the same length of time.

I thought you were unlucky today not to get at least a goal. When the ball was kept on the deck you looked a decent footballing team but way too many times you relied on "hoof ball" and Cheltenham were winning all those balls.

Good luck for Thursday via SKY I shall be cheering you on.

Over reaction 2 Leeds fans, family men are stabbed to death and you feel it's OK! to make a joke of it. I have no desire to fall out with you but yes I contacted Admin because I found your comments unacceptable as did other posters on here. Maybe we have all had humour transplants or your comments really were offensive.

What will the Leeds allocation be for this game ?

Indeed every home game is represented by Plymouth and Cornwall Whites, fantastic support going to every home and most away games.

GG thanks for that have just had a look and noted a couple of places.

DG you are talking my era here Leeds were the best side in Europe at that time alas these days just a mediocre Championship side. The one thing we still have is fantastic support especially away from home where no matter the day or distance always fill our away allocations and usually a few in the home ends.

Firstly and foremost good luck in the play off's many happy days spent at Plainmoor in the past. Am looking forward to seeing our friendly at the end of July and seeing the ground full. We will be bringing the maximum ammount of fans we are allowed, I am led to believe that Leeds fans are basing themselves in Torbay for the duration of the SW tour.

4 of us coming down, 2 couples any recommendations for a decent hotel with bar in St Marychurch or Babbacombe ? Cheers in advance.
