Re: Neglect & A Dereliction of Duty...

Can't disagree with anything you've posted Hector, but hindsight is a wonderful thing. I think most of us had settled for a mid-table 'consolidation' season and up until about Christmas, things were ticking along okay-ish. Many games were forgetable but we looked capable of a top half (about 10th) p...

Re: Player of the season?

For me, unlike last season when there were several contenders, this season there are just three - Downes, Saah and Poke. Up until his last two nightmare games, Downes would have been my choice but I shall be voting for BRIAN SAAH - he has been pretty solid all season.

Re: Poke

Whatever the team for the remaining four games, whether it's Poke in goal or Martin Rice, we as fans have got to get behind the team. I don't share the view that it is inevitable that we will lose at Gillingham. I do have concerns about the Barnet game, though. They are not conceding many goals so I...

Re: Torquay United v Bradford City - 1/4/13

Agree with much of Brucie's posting .... except for the inclusion of Billy Bodin in the team. He was unbelievably poor yesterday - poor ball control, putting team-mates under pressure with suicidal short passes and not challenging for the ball. We're in a dog fight and don't need show ponies as Bodi...

Re: The League Two relegation battle

Okay Josh - just a couple of bits under the Torquay United section. (i) You don't need an apostrophe in player's and (ii) you need to add Martin Ling's name after manager. The other bit you've got wrong is that we aint going down ! I reckon it will be Dagenham and Aldershot. York weren't a bad side ...

Re: Torquay United v York City 23/3/13

Great team effort today on a gluepot of a pitch. Is Tom Cruise suspended for one or three games? Along with Labadie and Chappell, he has made a big difference to the team.

Re: Torquay United v Chesterfield - 19/3/13

All three of our bookings tonight were unwarranted. The referee did his level best to spoil a good game. Alan Knill is turning the ship around and the loan signings of Labadie and Chappell have been immense. Don't quite understand why Morris appears to be out in the cold, but I suspect Knill is putt...

Re: The magical number

I think 50 points will see us okay but it might well come down to goal difference. For once in the club's history, goal difference could be on our side. I just hope it doesn't go down to the last game of the season against Bristol Rovers. Don't think my old ticker would stand that !

Difficult to pick out five players. It was a great team effort with players playing for each other.

Re: Which 2 is it to be then?

I'm going to be positive. I think we've got enough about us to get out of the mire and that we will still be in Div 2 next season. As much as I dislike Plymouth, I wouldn't like to see them go out of the league but I think they have played more home games than all of the teams around them so their p...

Re: Loan/Freebie Wishlist

Agree with posts on here that say we don't need to bring in lots of loan signings but sorry, MidDevon, cannot agree that Ryan Jarvis is a suitable replacement for Rene Howe if he is suspended/injured. When did Jarvis last score, or even threaten to score? An experienced striker would be good but I s...

Re: Torquay United v Port Vale - 23/2/12

Excellent post re Saturday's game, Andy. Hadn't realised that Lee Hughes is now at Port Vale. On the basis that we always (well, usually) play better against the top teams, I'm hoping for a draw. Maybe Tom Pope will have an off day ...... !
