Torquay United Fans Forum

I forget things very quickly nowadays. With reference to culmstockgull's comment, could someone please tell me the last time we received a transfer fee for a player, and how much was it?

Another assist for Little, 1-1

Just watched 1st half, commentator got it right. "Not missed the action replay machine"
No goals, but plenty of possession.

An innocent looking ball into the penalty area, Covolan jumps up, catches the ball easily, and for some unknown reason, thrusts his right leg into the chest of an attacking player. IMO, definite red card.

Sparkes was one of the few players to shine at Tonbridge, and scored against Yeovil, showing he was improving with game time. Perhaps, one for the future?

The bloke makes numerous mistakes, i didn't think he was good enough last season and its not changed

Please remember what league we play in. We will not get perfect players at our level of football. None of them are infallible. If an outfield player makes a mistake, it will probably not always result in a scoring opportunity. If a goalkeeper makes a mistake, it is probably going to give the opposition a real goal scoring chance. In my opinion, McDonald is a competent goalkeeper for this level of football.

So the keeper will miss next match... The return at Yeovil!

Did you mix it in with the stuffing yesterday. and stuff the turkey's cavity with it?

Did we send the wrong goalkeeper to Gloucester? After his performance today, I hope I don't see another. My 1st chance to see us since Sutton (a), before lockdown. How good to be able to pay cash, not be forced to wear a mask, and not have any rigmarole about testing.

Andrews equalizes at Eastbourne

No prizes who has just scored at Eastbourne

Very polite e mail back stating they are a friendly and welcoming club and they only segregate fans on police advice. Our game will have no segregation but the Maidstone one a week or so later will!!

Considering that when we visited Maidstone, the local police advice was for segregation, this seems a strange decision, but not unwelcome.

Just the flags, not enough for the poles as well!

1,000 less than they are now

Are you saying that he is on paternity leave. If so, it would be nice to be informed, and for how long?
