Torquay United Fans Forum

So, is this game streamed as a standalone game or is it part of an extended coverage of several from a studio? I see 1 of the games has multi cameras, the rest have 1. So I'm wondering if it's worth badgering them to put it on.

Bradford are doing there bit....
They have so far raised £2,000 for Tonbridge to help cover their loss from a bumper crowd.

My local team (Tonbridge Angels) have been drawn against Bradford City in the 1st round - the first time they have made it this far since the 70s. What would've been a bumper pay-day for the club with a sell-out crowd is now going to attract the grand total of 4, maybe 5, stewards* (strange, but true), a security guard* (to look after the stewards I guess), a stadium announcer* (to announce to who ffs!) and NO BLOODY FANS.




*in attendance at the Angels v Taunton 4th qualifying round.
