Time to be Together if you “support “ Torquay United F.C.

What is TUST actually doing? we don't hear from them for weeks on end? absolute no representation at the stadium on match days, of course we're gonna be cynical. Last post from TUST was 2 days ago and contained some interesting and relevant news. Are you a member? If not, join - you might find ther...

TUST Updates

In my opinion, the most important thing that TUST needs to do now is to get the right people into position with the required structure around them. Hopefully this will commence at the meeting, with any action then able to be implemented properly. This is why I have joined TUST now, so that what litt...

Joining forces with truro ?

Can anyone explain to me the advantage of Truro having a ground share arrangement with Torquay? I realise there would be savings presumably from not having their own ground, but it seems ridiculous to play in a ground so far away. Are there no options nearer to them like the rugby ground at Redruth?

Joining forces with truro ?

How many packets of crisps would it take to arrange a Harrop/Masters exchange? ☺️

TUST Updates

One of the many things that TUST will need to do is to appoint a media-savvy spokesperson. Someone who knows how to get points across crisply and effectively. This is no criticism of the current leadership - it is an art form which some people are born with. Ideally someone with media experience. Wi...

Club Statement

Let's be clear. The only reason for this statement today is that TUST and fans on the forums have started to become much more organised and vocal. So we need to look past the content of the statement and realise that all of us have forced the Club to speak out. It is an early sign that as we grow st...

TUST STATEMENT 10th January 2018

I've just joined. Not much I can do here in Poole except support by means of a subscription and vote when the opportunity arises. I have happy memories of TUFC during my young years until I left Torquay for work elsewhere. But I went to school next door in what then was Homelands Technical High Scho...

Gary Owers

I can't understand how people are still being negative. I get that it took far too long, and there was plenty of occasions over the last few weeks where I thought that this might be the moment that GI and Harrop make the move that dooms the club, by appointing Robbie or anyone else costing truck al...

Not if those Nicholson signs have sick notes, are icecream salesmen or past their sell-by date. Come to think of it, if he does get Bath, then maybe we could offer him some players.

Management options

I think we all owe Ray a vote of thanks for arranging for Paul Cox to come back to Torquay. Undoubtedly this is why he joined the forum. :) :}

SACK NICHOLSON!!

Blaming the budget is just an excuse. As is the location. There have been many posts on this forum suggesting up and coming players from lower divisions who would give their right arm to play in a club like this. Get rid of half our team and sign these youngsters. Two things would then happen - firs...

I know I sit at the back in this forum, but I do try to keep up! Please could you aid my ignorance and tell me who Rory Fallon actually is?

Fan Survey Results

According to the survey parking is a problem, only 16% saying it was good or very good. The Club's response is that it is outside of their control. I was suggesting some help with this issue in line with what others have posted on this forum. In any case, if attendance can be increased significantly...
