Does anyone know much about Kerr?

Be unusual for Redknapp put money in a club, he on past performances has left most clubs in debt.However, if were to happen it could be an interesting ride.

Effectively reintroducing the Torquay Times from years ago in another name

I was told some very interesting news about your bestist buddy and his plans for a new stadium by a relative who works for torbay Council, on Friday. This news was also confirmed by a Councillor I know who sits on Teignbridge district council. What I was told was very interesting.

And are going to share this or just allow supporters to think good or bad news?

Yes Mellow Yellow, was a great team and time. Think you mean Bobby Baxter though.

Hi Merse

Hi all, I have been a Torquay supporter since my dad took me in 1961 so have experienced lots. Sold programs for a good many years and remember doing same for the Spurs 3-3 game at down at Cary Park, on getting back to ground Sam Stuckey jammed us behind Babbacombe goal almost touching the nets. Loved collecting player autographs in them days. We use to sit on benches inside the fence on Grandstand side along with the St Johns people. Nearly got knocked off my seat by a vicious tackle by Mark Lazarus (QPR winger) on Bill Kitchener. Anyway got loads of memories good and bad and as a result of some bad decisions from various I stopped attending 14ish years ago. Use too love the banter with mates on pop side.

I certainly do. My memory maybe playing tricks but we also signed Alan Kirkman around or just after that time from was it Workington or Scunthorpe?
I visit relatives in Workington a lot and also try to take in a game if possible. Pity them if Andrews there now.
They were on the fringes of play offs a season or two back.
Would love to see them back in the league one day, but the ground is dire.
