Good chance to gauge the intentions of the new regime.

Torquay United manager Paul Wotton says his first week in the job has been a busy but positive one...
Wotton said: “It has been positive on the whole. I have had a really busy first week and I think I have been in the club every day. It has been great to meet all the staff – and get a feel for the place. I feel like it is becoming more and more homely every time I am there.
“I have been tremendously busy really with nothing but recruitment, player wise and my staff as well, and we are hopefully very close to announcing something on that.”

I can't see PW going after ex good TUFC players, he's endured a regime that doesn't have that luxury and has come out on top. I see nothing changing when you can carry on and pick players that have potential, especially part time players that could be full time.

Well, Luke Young didn’t quite make it to league 1. He is 31 and maybe if we can make him the dreaded “marquee” signing, why not? Apparently on 1k per week at Wrexham. Maybe some wriggle room offloading a bit of dead wood. Wotton surely would be wishing, and hopefully digging.

But Hayman and Edwards were being paid before administration. Warnock and the consortium are a breath of fresh air, people involved in the club with no ulterior motive except to see this club prosper.

Neil Warnock IMHO is an excellent addition, I would pay his bus fare from Cornwall - lovely genuine guy.

Warnock is not even getting paid for his role at the club, so I think we can trust that he is only in it for the benefit of TUFC.

Who better for the manager to bounce ideas off than NW? I can't think of any.

His contacts within the game will be invaluable for recruitment, I'm sure.

But, not just that, when the bad spell comes, PW will have an incredible pair of ears and decades of knowledge to tap into.

I don't see a downside to be fair. Top work getting him on board.

He must have asked the same questions you did and agreed/talked through all what Warnock being around would entail.

Warnock isn’t being paid, it’s obviously a part time thing where he has control on his time given. He has stated his intention to not manage, or even visit the training ground, might this change if we go through a bad patch, who knows?

It does feel though that he wants to enjoy the nice parts of football now, not the stressful/time and energy consuming side, using his expertise to help with the behind the scenes stuff and hopefully enjoying just watching it all develop. It’s got to be a win win for us.
Fair play, and point taken 👍.

The previous owner/directors had no intention of helping the club in any way only to see it's demise.We now have genuine supporters trying their best to run the club with their own finances and no alterior motives.Neil Warnock with his vast experience of all divisions has advised that Paul Wotton would be a good manager at our current level.Every other club has had to pay Warnock to dig them out of a hole which he's succeeded at many times.Now he's giving his experience for free and has said he has no intention of managing the club.How any of this can be negative bemuses me ,if he decides to leave in a few months so be it ,there would still be a manager but his knowledge may have gained the club advantage against others .Can't see the problem.

Excatly. Neil Warnock has gone out of his way, and made it very clear he's does not want to be in the dressing room, on the training ground, he's here to help only, not sure what else can be done or said.

Maybe because you're inventing problems that clearly aren't evident in their relationship which is a negative viewpoint. Everything I've heard from Neil Warnock has been positive. He's not stupid.
