Stadium fan ownership

Back to school days … before Westlands when Westhill and Homelands were separate, Westhill had Windmill Hill and Homelands Quinta. Quinta is the prime housing site

TUFC V Yeovil (FA Trophy) - 18th Nov 3pm

Great to get a win. Enjoyable game - I hadn’t planned to go but changed my mind at lunchtime, glad I did.

Some good performances from our players.

Dreadful Ref.

Game changed when Nouble came off the bench but we held on for the win.

Boycott Bath

I’m not keen on a boycott - I want to support the team. Should we have a song to demonstrate the long-term solidarity of supporters and our club TUFC - excluding owners, managers etc (?) How about, ‘we’re Torquay United - we’ll never be defeated’ (might take a bit of explaining !), or, ‘ we shall no...

I think that’s the worse possible outcome. TUFC have to pay a mad level of rent to Gaming international.

Torquay Utd v Welling Utd 21/10/2023 15:00

The last two games have dented my faith.

The lack of incoming loanees has dented my hope.

Have cancelled my planned trip to WSM.

Just looking for a win today to start rebuilding.

Torquay United v Maidstone United, Saturday 7th October, 3pm

We lost 0-1 against a team near us in the league - playing 60 mins one man down. Cold facts don’t seem too bad. But it makes the weekend miserable and the first half performance didn’t give much hope. Unless your club is going to throw large sums of money at it, I think the reality of NL/NLS is that...

Great 3points - deserved the win.
Everyone worked hard in the heat.
Screamer from McGavin !
Worst Reg so far.

Fantastic 3 points after a poor first half.
It’s getting the results that count.

St Albans City v Torquay United - 19th August 3pm

I listened on TUFC radio. It sounded like we created a good few chances and got a good result.

Even more pleasing as we were missing a few.

Very happy to get three points - onwards and upwards.

Who's in control?

I’m not a fan of Ross Marshall - based on past performances. I enjoyed the interview on the TUFC website - it was honest and his eye treatment over the summer has clearly been a significant issue. I guess he wore contact lenses during the match. He had a good game last night, with the benefit of his...

Torquay Utd v Worthing 12/8/2023 15:00

It’s taken a while to get over that match. Such a poor performance - was it just one shot on target in the second half ? Possibly one of the worst I’ve seen, despite good performances pre-season it’s hard to see the same players transforming to a promotion winning team. A solid central defender is t...

Dover Athletic v Torquay United - 3pm 5th Aug

I think we all acknowledge we need a solid central defender. If someone of the standard we want became available could we afford him (?), would he want to play in NLS (?). Answers to both questions probably no … so we need a loanee like last season. GJ has said they have a loanee in mind we can be 9...
