PSF - Torquay v Plymouth - 31/07/21

I'm not convinced that the trialist was Dan Holman. While there's a definite GJ connection, Holman is 31 and I don't think the trialist looked old enough. Also, Holman retired last season and supposedly move to Dubai with his wife. Just done a search and trialist B certainly looks like Dan Holman!!...

Playoff Final Vs Hartlepool at Ashton Gate

Everyone is urged to do these twice a week (you can get them free from most pharmacies) so I am already doing them and recording the results on the NHS Covid reporting app which gives me email proof of the result. In fairness the policy only "strongly recommends" a test and that they &quo...

Playoff Final Vs Hartlepool at Ashton Gate

I was number 30 in queue but got through after 35 mins. Couldn't choose seats as it's lucky dip. My 2 tickets are sealed in an envelope and came direct from Bristol. Lady said wait time was due to both season ticket holders and non season ticket holders both calling!! I see the Covid policy at Ashto...

Play Offs

Just read through this thread. Having paid just short of £600 for a season ticket for me and my lad for five games and not claimed any refund when last season ended early I would be gob smacked if I was asked to pay more for the play off semi final!! I was wondering if the Saturday off will be an ad...

Honestly I'm not disagreeing with your stance, I'm just focusing on the hypocrisy of the whole body of restrictions and guidelines that make no sense whatsoever. Agree, I'm a fit and healthy middle aged man but try to abide by the guidelines as would hate to think I could pass it on to someone more...

Playing devil's advocate Fred, do you see the same people next to you when you do the weekly food shop? You're right that we mix with other people on a daily basis at work or while shopping. My point is that I don't understand how the seating plan has been worked out. I'm going to ask to be moved a...

Strange how the seating arrangements in Bristows Bench have been worked out. The seat to the left of me is tapped off but the next two seem to be on general sale as I've had two different neighbours for the last two matches. All the seats to the right of me are tapped off (about 10ish) Although the ...

Great performance today. High tempo throughout!! Really like Randall. Not sure when his loan expires but we could do with him for the season!! Injuries are a worry as they will be for all teams this year. Really hope we can keep playing our games as points on board will be more important with so man...

Chesham United v Torquay United (FA Trophy 3rd Round Proper)

Bit like watching an eastern block European cup match from the 70s when the commentator reported from down a phone line!! Not going to worry too much about the performance which I was only able to see after 37 mins as so many players had no game time in their legs!! Buse, Little, Warren, Walters, Um...

National League - King's Lynn Town v Torquay United - Sat 12 Dec 2020 - 3.00pm KO

If anyone from Kings Lynn reads this it is meant in a constructive way. By charging more than anyone else at this level you are shooting yourself in the foot.Most Clubs charge £9.99. At £12 with 250 sales you take £3,000. At £9.99 with 500 sales you take £4,995. Fans do not like being charged over ...
