Torquay United Fans Forum

Anyone who has played the game to any level whatsoever will tell you that confidence is the biggest determinant of performance. I'm sure we can all think of scores of players over the decades who have either looking woeful here and gone on to succeed elsewhere or managed to turn things round at Plai...

Genuine question - how does a team that played so well pre-season (ie showing they have the ability) show so poorkynin the league? Must be due to a perceived drop in opposition standard and so lowering own personal standards and assuming will walk the win?

Torquay 4 v 0 Worthing. Season up and running!

:goodpost: Boring….same few opinions thinking they speak for everyone. Get over it and get on with it. Got my season ticket and glad of it. Come on the season. The neg ferrets on here are so tedious. The player sponsors event today was great, full of positivity and perspective. Really brings it home...

That match at Weston didn't cover us in glory. There were some 18,19yr old Torquay "fans" giving the Weston goalie out of order abuse throughout the 2nd half. They should have been kicked out. They were chanting "Gary Johnston's Yellow Army". Yes, they didn't even know the name ...

Based on the numbers that travelled to Weston I think 1500 is achievable. Incredible and surreal atmosphere that night (despite the result). Taunton had best just remove all bins from the terraces.

I'm a fan of having sponsors back, even if they're not the usual commercial ones. Helps give kits an identity / link to an era for me.

I do wonder whether the local focus is part of Clarke's endeavours to win favour with the esteemed local council though as part of the grand development plans.

Is your glass ever even a quarter full Brucie?! Halstead & Lapslie were awesome last season and to have their experience alongside the others already signed on in the NLS is immense. This is a real statement of intent and notwithstanding all my misgivings of his intentions, fair play to the owne...

Definitely my POTS. Without him first half of season we'd have been down by February!

Seems from twitter Moyse has announced he's departed. Shame that, he looked decent prospect and has never been given a chance.

Really don't understand why we bother with a youth programme as we just farm them out on loan and then release them!

The 50/50 poll, whilst clearly unscientific, probably is accurate of fans' thoughts. There are arguments for both camps and I'd just encourage everyone getting angry about him staying to take a moment and really think about whether ranting and raving on here / Twitter is really going to help anyone ...

What odds us needing old friends Cameron and Nemane to do us a favour on the final day?! Hard to see Notts playing a full strength side if Wrexham have secured the title and arguably would have even less to play for than Wrexham, with the need to avoid injuries ahead of the play offs.

Halstead
Jarvis
Dawson
Evans
Stobbs

Time will tell but for me it's the midfield that needs to be boosted and indeed has been the weak link all season. No protection for the defence and no consistent service for the strikers. Unless that changes, Frank could be Harry and it still wouldn't help!

Hopefully I'm wrong though!

Wonder how much a Waters / Umerah front line is worth in today's market ......!
