The Russian Gulls

Hi all,

I've mentioned them before, but time to bring them up again.

http://vk.com/torquay_united

The Russian Gulls are mostly 18-24 year olds who stumbled upon TUFC via computer games such as FIFA, Football Manager and Pro Evo. Anyway, they're pretty on the ball, getting their latest news from the Official Site, the BBC and the Herald. Anyway, tomorrow I'm heading off to join them.

They're primarily found in Moscow (but Russia is a bit big) I'll be staying in Saint Petersburg but we intend to get together and watch a live feed when Torquay draw Arsenal or someone big in the FA Cup. (We're also planning on getting our own Russian language Torquay scarves made.)

I know a few of them read this site, but don't post because they're not confident of their English, so hopefully they'll be chuffed to see a Thread about them!

Anyway, this is just a thank you to the TQYFans community, particularly Louis, - where else will I get my Torquay speculation and get to read Jeff's match reports?

Cheers, and here's to an excellent season under Ling!


btw - Come on you yellows! = мы с вами желтых! (Mi s vami zholtix)

I remember you posting about them before, it's nice to know that some got "lucky" and went for TUFC, you should encourage them to post, you could always help with translation ;-)
