Management options

Wilkinson was in the Torquay area two days back - or so it would appear!

Management options

My money is on Bobby Wilkinson, ex Hungerford Town manager. He resigned over the weekend, as did Jamie Leacock and Mike Percival (his assistant and coach).

Already linked with Torquay United. All three would tick a number of boxes - Hard Hitting, Successful (at lower level), cheapish (I would guess) and shows GI maybe moving things in right direction with a full package (smoke and mirrors).

This is not to say it is my choice, but I can't see who else they have left for. Just the manager going I could understand, but all three having just sighed new contracts!

Retain lists released. Anyone worth a look at?

Yet again we may struggle to get a number of these players to relocate to Torquay / Devon, away from family / friends and larger towns and cities. Relocation of training out of area should be fully explored, has it been!

Final Game - North Ferriby @ 12:15

Firstly please remember it is a 12:15 start........

Win and we are safe.

Draw and Braintree can't catch us. Therefore if Guiseley or York drop points we are safe.

Lose and there are 27 permutations:-
> 16 result in us being safe!
> 11 results we dare not think about.

Of this 11, 7 would be two (three) of Braintree / York and Guiseley to win.
The other four are:
Braintree Win / York Draw / Guiseley Draw
Braintree Win / York Lose / Guiseley Draw
Braintree Draw / York Win / Guiseley Draw
Braintree Lose / York Win / Guiseley Draw

Anyone fancy standing for our MP as a 'Save TUFC from GI' candidate?

Great idea and worth looking into. The cost needs to be checked, is this the correct amount?

It should be noted for this you get quite a lot of costs paid, including leaflets, post and alike...........
