FT 1-2
definition of a must win
stupid at the end really, Collins through on goal and plays a poor pass, Ash then shoots woefully rather than run to the corner
collins had the legs and the pitch to himself steaming towards goal and then for some reason known only to hm decides to pass, early in the season he would probably have buried that.

Well, I take that. The only downside is not keeping a clean sheet but three priceless points.
Archer was given Man of the match by Truro, that sums up their frustration tonight.
Well played lads, a point at Bath would be a bonus but they are going for the playoffs and present a stern test on Saturday.
Attendance tonight was 384....and most of those were wearing Yellow.

Collins showed a real lack of confidence there,
thought he would just go on and leather it.
Still overall we played very well and with the sort of spirit and workrate that we should have been showing all season. Two excellent goals,
what a star AJB is . Duke McKenna mark 2.

Must admit I feel a bit ashamed. Went to the car with the boy and then could not face it. The weather the long drive and mostly the fact that, in my heart, I did not believe the players really gave a toss made me go back to the house. My boy bought the game on tv and proved me completely wrong. Tonight they played with heart and as I say felt ashamed at my lack of belief. Even more so because my old man who followed Torquay all his life, like Southampton Gull, always believed. Even my Mrs had a go stating 'I never thought you would not go'. Well done that team tonight and Downsey, a bit of pride restored.

You haven't seen many of our games this season then !
We played some good passing football at times tonight and hoofed it when we needed to .
Did everything right I thought.

Haven't seen many games this season!!! I've been to every home game except Dartford and every away bar about three. I stanld by what I have see from the opening game away to Dover, that at times it looked like we lacked heart on numerous occasions. I have been watchingTUFC since 1973 and have seen many poor teams but many that had the heart and desire to compete . I feel that this season I have not always seen this. Tonight I did.

Massive 3 points gained tonight.
Loved National League TV (and lense wipe). Great to have no commentary, the audio made me feel like I was on the Pop side - well done Yellow Army.

I am still in shock. I am glad I am proved wrong! This really could be the result that keeps us in the league.
I think 1 more win would see us survive.

Onto the next

I am not sure what is worse, the rain on the lens or the camera person using the same cloth he checks his dipstick with, I keep thinking I have got cataracts

Archer MoTM
Lots of talk about Jarvis, hes on the bench in a tracksuit this evening
Was he, I missed that. I spoke with most of the planers before the game and he was not with them. Glad he was there.
