Stadium fan ownership

No, I don't think Gallow's Gate is a feasible option-hardly anywhere in Torbay is-just stating what land might be available for some consideration and various events have been held there in the past with parking on site.

Stadium fan ownership

Taelee73 wrote: 22 Nov 2023, 19:08 With all the new building of housing and industry/supermarkets around Edgingswell, along with the long mooted plan for a new train station based there, maybe this is an option?
I assume land

was compulsory purchased for the building of the new dual carriageway, so it's not setting a precedent.
A ground there would have great car and maybe soon train access up towards Exeter and down to Plymouth, with the Willows nearby and pubs. Parking could be incorporated.

The clubs first choice was the old tip at the Willows, so maybe it's an option?
The station at Edginswell has got planning approval now and the funding,Nightingale Park is to become a solar farm.There may however ,be opportunities not too far away, on the ring road; Gallow's Gate area.

If Johnson hasn't already lost the dressing room, he will soon with that type of attitude.

Club Statement - 08/11/2023

George Edwards has been constantly trying to intimidate the TUST board members and to force them to stop raising concerns about how the club is run,for some time.When they were able to meet formally with Dom Mee, it was on the condition that certain board members didn't attend as they were perceived to be overly critical of the club on social media-though there was no evidence of the alleged criticisms.
TUST board members social media postings are monitored by the club( George Edwards confirmed this himself saying he know which names they post under). So the statement following the Forum is no surprise whatsoever-any dissent, criticism or sign of protest and the club hierarchy move to shut it down.

Torquay United v Yeovil Town, Tues 7th Nov, 7:45pm

Well Yeovil have won 11 games in a row ,so are heavy favourites. They have to lose sometime however-or at least the winning run come to an end.
So given that and the fact we don't draw many, I'm predicting 2-2.

What is our five year plan?

Simon Hallett, Plymouth owner, was on Spotlight last night talking about Argyle's Five Year Plan. He was very open and honest;ambitious but realistic.
He clearly has a grip on what is needed in terms of moving the club forward sustainably and taking their growing number of fans with them on that journey. Clearly loves Argyle, and the city he was born in and its people and is determined to use his money and potentially the money of new investors to continue the development of the club on and off the pitch.
The contrast to our current owner could't be more stark.

Hampton + Richmond v Torquay United Sat 28/10/23 3PM

I've been far too optimistic with my predictions so far-really pessimistic for this one I'm afraid.
H&R 2 TUFC 0.

10 League Games in 39 Days

Emphasises the urgent need to get some loanees in.The inaction in this respect, to date, is very worrying and mystifying.

The "Rec" regularly floods and was under several feet of water on Sunday.
