Do you actually work for TUFC teeboo?! You seem to have some very good contacts within the club at least!

Can't say I know these 3 but hopefully it'll sort out some of the basic errors made last season.

Went senior school with Andrew Candy, in the same year.

At school he was kind natured and would help his schoolmates to the best of his ability.

It doesn't surprise me that he's offered his services on a voluntary basis, it's in his kind nature.

:clap: :bow: :clap:

Just wanted to say thank you to everyone for the kind words and good wishes. Much appreciated to hear from old friends and regular posters who I do not know yet. As stated on the OS I am a life time supporter of our beloved Club and fortunate to be in a position to offer my services in order to try and help take the Club forward. I have lots of ideas and energy and want to try and concentrate in particular,on making the "Match Day Experience" even better for us, the Fans. I am keen that we should listen to the Fans and where possible and financially sensible, introduce changes to make that Experience even better. May not get it all right first time, but will be prepared to listen and improve things the next time. I will also be keen to involve some of you that have a little free time in some of the projects I will be working on. Watch the OS for more details.
Sorry for the speech, really only meant to say thankyou.
Best wishes,
Andrew

Fantastic - well done - good egg - does he know any good footballers? - if so perhaps he could point them in the direction of our new manager to stop him signing shite.

Sorry about ^^^ this, Andrew. Unfortunately, to qualify for our 'care in the community' grant, we have to keep him.

Matt.

Pretty serious. brucie is our resident black cloud, the result of a dangerous cross breeding experiment between Eeyore and Droopy.

Andrew Candy was first choice centre forward at Westhill School. :bow:

Unfortunately, across the road at Homelands, was a player by the name of Steve Pope. :bow:

"Westlands", back in the day, had hell of a side, but then so did Torquay Grammar. :@

It was like one half of Trojans playing the other half. All mates together then ? No by f'ck, we did our best to kick lumps out of each other. :O
