Torquay v Dagenham & Redbridge 25th March 2023

Well that was the same old story and the reason we are where we are. We are so poor at times it’s embarrassing. As soon as anyone runs at our defence we are in trouble as was the case with the penalty and the winner. From where I was it looked like a clumsy challenge for the pen and just awful defen...

New Signing - Frank Nouble

Can’t quite understand the excitement over this signing. Is he match fit? Unlikely Has he been playing and scoring regularly? No Has he ever been a prolific scorer? No Nevertheless I hope he shines for us and I wish him all the best when he pulls on a yellow shirt. I tend to agree with this. The on...

Torquay v Dagenham & Redbridge 25th March 2023

I think even if we win today we go down but I get what you’re saying this feels like the last chance. Dorking and Gateshead both have winnable games themselves today so we could effectively be down at 5pm today. Hopefully we show a bit of fight and a willingness to pass it around a bit. Dag & Re...

Gateshead v Torquay United - 18th March 2023

1-1, not enough. Yet again we are unable to win a must win game. Dorking lose again and are very catchable but not by us unfortunately.

Yes probably the worst team I’ve ever seen. We’re going down without a whimper.

Fantastic effort by the 173 fans who made the trip today

Will we stay up?

If we had beaten Dorking and drawn with Wealdstone, which was the state of the games when Evans and Lapslie got sent off, we would have been above the relegation places today. Of course we may have conceded anyway but for all the (justifiable) concern about, selection, tactics and lack of quality p...

Torquay United v Wealdstone - 11th March

“Lean and quick” speaks volumes about the management of our club. It was evident he had ability, has with other strikers who have left us and gone on to score goals. What exactly is going on at this club?! I think this is a really important point. Corrie Andrews was clearly overweight and unfit whe...

Torquay United v Wealdstone - 11th March

Just watched the Lapslie challenge back. Hard to tell exactly but it doesn’t look good. Nowhere near the ball. The ref is close to the challenge and had no doubt.

Will we stay up?

It looked close to impossible before today that we would stay up, but after another defeat we now need a miracle. 10 games to go and realistically we need to win at least 6 and pick up a couple of draws to give ourselves any kind of chance. Given we have won 7 games all season there is basically no ...

Gary Johnson, stick or twist?

It’s been obvious since the first few games of the season that something isn’t right and something needs to change. After the Wrexham game I thought it was time for GJ to go. The general consensus was that we needed to pick up 4 points from the next 2 home games and we’ve come away with 1 against 2...

Gary Johnson, stick or twist?

Do you think GJ will stay if we are relegated? If it’s looking increasingly unlikely that we’ll avoid the drop and the manager leaves / will not be retained then why not cut the losses now and give someone else a shot? Who in their right mind would take the job now and have relegation on their CV. ...

Solihull Moors v Torquay United - 7th March

Tonight’s results couldn’t really have gone any worse. At least now those fans in denial might accept were **** and are going down fast. The management and owner should hang their heads in shame.
