Tonbridge Angels v Torquay United, March 16 3pm

3 “centre backs” is NOT working and Tomlinson should not start another game until he gets the basics in place.

This is absolutely dire.

Try something like this

Halstead
Boyd Marshall Booth Moxey
Stobbs Lapsie Dawson Ash
Jarvis Duane

I’ve lost track who’s fit and who’s sidelined

Torquay United v Taunton Town TUE 12th.

“Are you Johnson in disguise?” Downes is a long term Gulls hero and I respect the challenge he is facing but unfortunately he has continued the run of poor tactical decisions and has not yet rallied the mentality required to perform on the pitch. In many respects the issues off the pitch and sentime...

Weymouth F C V Torquay United Sat 2 March KO 3pm

Despite a disappointing result today, it wasn’t a wreckless performance. Whilst it lacked passion, it had a degree of stability that we’ve been lacking. I can’t quite make out what happened with the goal conceded before half time, individual defending errors may have contributed but frankly the team...

Weymouth F C V Torquay United Sat 2 March KO 3pm

Weymouth 0 - 4 TUFC. Lets go Can I change my prediction in play?! 😊😫 It’s my first game in a while and the crowd and the sun got the better of my judgement. Our goal was well worked, there has been some moments of decent play but the final ball is lacking. Ultimately this team is still bereft in co...

New Revenue ideas?

Here are a few other quick fire ideas - Save Our Club Crowdfunding campaign with local and national appeal. Use social media, local media, and club website to highlight the situation and encourage donations. - Charity matches (think former players and ex-pros who support grassroots football) - Spons...

New Revenue ideas?

I literally sent this to Sharon Musker, Commercial Director, 10 minutes ago: “A difficult day for all involved I’m sure. I had a simple idea to raise funds - I, like many others, missed out on the limited edition black 1899 shirt. Given the circumstances, could the club release a new batch of the li...

liquidators come in

The louder fans have been demanding Gary out and the owners should leave the club. Their dreams have come true. The tricky part is not having a plan for such an eventuality. I’m not sure fans were anticipating going into administration as the mode of ownership transfer, which has put more than a so...

Potential Buyers

Who could be potential buyers for the club? Is anyone aware of any loyal fans with sizeable wealth or strong commercial interests? Does anyone have contact with Joe Woods, founder of WKD Drinks which started in Torquay? Could he be a possible fit. Could a fan based consortium work? How would this wo...

my group of companies tried to offer Torquay FC a lucrative sponsorship 10 years ago, but they turned us down, now we will try and buy the club.
Any more info or background? On what grounds did they turn you down?

George Edwards OUT

Surely this is a given? I really know nothing about the work he’s put in at the club so find it difficult to pass comment other than upon his poor communication record with fans, though I’m genuinely curious to know what his day to day involvement has been!
