Hi guys
What are your feelings regarding Harry Redknapp on being Torquay's new "potential" owner :)
He has stated that he wants to buy a club once this lock down is over :)
This is his ambition a club at a lower level even at the National league standard
A club with some potential :) :)
Torquay has got such great potential don't you think so!
What's our chances of trying to sell TUFC to him via social media :)
Would you want him as the new owner?
All being remotely hypothetical
but hey you never know :)
He's appearing at the Princess Theatre Torquay on 15th October :) get your banners ready :)

I spoke with Harry about taking over at Torquay United, about two years ago, while at a golf club in Bournemouth. The conversation was more about him becoming manager, this was before King Gary, during our 'troubled times'. He joked it would be prefect and just what he wanted in retirement. Reading this article reminded me of this discussion and how approachable he was as a small group of us chatted all things football.

Turning to the article I would assume it was a 'throw away remark'. It fills a paper and helped fill the interview. Nice to dream or be concerned depending on your stand point.

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.

Of course he wouldn't be interested in buying a football club because he owns a property development company would he?
