Beating Worthing in the final. Semi professional with a small squad and home attendances of around 800. Congratulations to them.
If they can do it, so can Torquay.

Not sure what to think until we know their intentions. Part time/full time? Ambitions of the football league as mentioned or was that a different bidder?
But at least we are moving forward now and we can ditch all the rumours.

I would say Brackleys recent record of getting to finals is well earned and I hope they go up. Shows what can be done with crowds of 780 and just how piss poor we have been as a club. My bigger club comment was tongue in cheek.

I also see that Brackley town are finalists again in the northern final. They have punched way above their weight recently. Small ground with crowds averaging 780 this season. Lost in the final last year. Playoffs 2022. Finalist 2021 and FA trophy winners 2018. We could learn something from these te...

Fleetwood United champions UAE second division.
Other clubs moving forward with new ideas to increase revenue while at Torquay :-/ Shhhhhhhhhh don't tell em. “We are trying to find those players from parts of the world like Senegal or Canada then potentially send them to England or Ireland if they are good enough.” Trading players is a big part o...

That sounds like Mel and Ian Hayman then. Whether it not or it includes Edwards is anyone guess given the radio silence coming out of Plainmoor. But then again is the source for this rumour accurate? The local press have hardly covered themselves in glory in the past. Exactly. I just about lost pat...

I'm reading in the rules that we need to submit a PSB pre season budget by the 14th of June. I really hope all this is being sorted out right now. I really think Osborne has dropped us right in it and given us a near impossible task. :@ I think we may be able to start under a sort of supervision if ...

"bitcoin club" seems like a hiding to nothing, honestly, because that $4.5m could be worth half that next year (equally, could be twice as much; crypto is a little bit too volatile and opaque for my tastes). Bedford is going to be very well placed to grow as a town in the next 5-10 years,...

Regarding the new owners of Torquay United I hope I'm wrong...but I think if they are a complete new team with no previous connections to TUFC, then surely an announcement should be made before tomorrow's game . Looking Ahead No-one at Plainmoor can pretend that 2023/24 has gone how we would have w...
