Torquay United v H&W Sat 20th Apr 3pm

Good posting Dave. I entirely agree. I think Downes deserves a free hand as a manager either here or with another club. He has been working under Johnson's autocratic style and may well have had little input. At least his post-match interviews were worth listening to.

Torquay United v Weston Super Mare Mon 1st

This Gary Johnson side must rank as the worse team ever put out by Torquay United. It is difficult to believe that a full-time professional side cannot beat PART-TIME local sides such as Truro,
Weston and Taunton. GJ has a lot to answer for but hopefully we have seen the last of him.
I feel some sympathy for Downes as he probably had little say in proceedings given Johnson's autocratic style and is left with a bunch of no hopers

New Revenue ideas?

As someone who supported Torquay in the fifties (Sam Collins, Ronnie Shaw, Don Mills et al) and followed the Magpies/Gulls since I will gladly support the Club now that Osborne and Johnson are gone. Osborne intentions were well known. Johnson were not. In addition to purchasing a ticket for home matches, which I cannot attend due to my age and distance, I would also like to pay for a ticket for a supporter who cannot genuinely afford to attend. This would be for all home matches this season.
Coming from Paignton I have always had Torquay United in my heart. No other team comes close.
