Torquay United Fans Forum

A fairly straightforward win against poor opposition. United recovered well after conceding a needless penalty in the first minute, and the result was never really in doubt. The team held their shape well, and the defence was very solid. Smart move from the corner which resulted in the 3rd goal, after which the game dropped off a bit . WJD took his goals well; it would be a great shame if he went back to Argyle in January as he is a class above most of our other midfield players. Friendly and well organised club, albeit with a fairly weird ground . I paid an extra £3 to sit in the "grandstand", only to find that the roof leaked on three quarters of the seats ! United had about 350/400 of the 1000 crowd, and more than matched the home fans for noise.

He is doing a lot better than Johnson, with a smaller budget. This squad is limited in many ways, but he manages it well, rotating and using subs effectively. We are lucky to have him.

Seems harsh. But I don't think we can afford to pay someone for doing nothing for a whole season. I imagine his contract will have a relevant clause.

Has broken his arm playing for Tiverton. What do we do about goalkeeping cover ? An emergency loan if necessary ?

Would be nice , after so many many lows , to go out on a high. 2-0 to the Gulls.

Hoping for something from this. 1-1 draw.

a significant game tonight - Truro vs Eastbourne. Then Truro play Yeovil the next day ! So things should be clearer by the weekend.

i'd just like to know what is hapening ! And be saved from endless reruns of the same old arguments.

I've begun to lose count of must win games which we haven't won. Things don't look good for this one - injuries, plastic pitch, opponents better rested. Surely the tide has to turn sometime ? 1-0 to Torquay.

They did the double over Yeovil, and recent form is good. A difficult game - we lost there last time we were in the NLS. I hope we can sneak a draw 1-1.

I was also there for that game. Great strike from distance.

A win here would be a massive step towards safety. 1-0 to the gulls.

Gobsmacking comment from a guy who has been here all season. Unless he means we should have signed some defenders who can defend.

We just have to get something out of this. 1-1 draw.

We are not yet in administration. When, as seems likely, we are the situation may change. But we don't know what the loan or financial arrangements are. Nelson went back almost staright away. Personally I'd be glad for Arkell-Boyd and WJD to stay as long as possible as they are two of our better players. I'd assume they aren't as worried about the situation as others as they have clubs to go to.
