Torquay United Fans Forum

Well done to you guys - pretty pissed off - but I know how you will be feeling this morning as we have worn your shoes twice in the last four seasons (i.e. seventh placed club beating fourth placed team).

Most Shrews supporters reckon you deserved it in the end - just a little hard to take. The following thread echoes most Town fans opinions of the two games:-

Back to the point i have read a lot of posts around the net,and have to say that probaly 99% of shrews fans have been fantastic,very complimentry about Torquay as a club and its fans,and whilst saying the tie is not over also your fans have been gracious in defeat.

For the most part gulls have reconized that,and should your club overturn the 2.0 result,you will find most of us being the first to wish your club well.

You will get the usual biased banter on Blue & Amber however most Town supporters have got a lot of good things to say about you guys. Have to say that I was dreading getting your lot - you are a definate bogey team for us (only one victory in the last 17 encounters?). You made us look very poor last Saturday and to be honest I am not expecting much this Friday - particularly if Sharp doesn't play. Most Town supporters I reckon would have preferred either Stevenage or Stanley (particularly Stevenage). However Town have surprised me a lot this season - when expecting them to lose they have turned things round.

Heart: Town 4 Torquay 0 (Early goal and three more in the last 10 minutes)

Head: Town 1 Torquay 1 (Early goal from you guys and an equaliser from us halfway through the second half to give us a glimmer of hope).
