You'll have to explain this one to me. How does selling out all your tickets make a club tinpot?
Clubs like Liverpool and Man United, who sell out week after week, must feel really embarrassed being tinpot so frequently.

Game after game, week after week, month after month, failure after failure. Not since the dire days of Dave W*** have I felt so despondent. The managers signings, the managers picks, the managers tactics, the managers organisation. This is killing the club. What hold does Johnson have over the owner...

Chasing the game against 10 men. Naturally remove one of your two forwards.

Torquay 2 Slough 0 Going, forward, the new boys Arkell and Booth both look strong. Add these two to players currently on the books, namely.......... Halstead Moxey McGavin Lapslie Stobbs Dawson Hall Jarvis In my opinion, those ten are all good enough to see us promoted. Add in one from the likes of...

The Union is still open if you like a traditional rough and ready place.
Frequented by a few TU followers before the game.

Another dismal day for a Torquay follower. Listening to Martin Gritton comments during the game, when his thoughts are most instinctive, (his post match summary is more circumspect) he constantly referred to lack of organisation, tactical ineptitude, pointing out time and time again simple basic err...

How and why is a part time player with a job paying more money going to come to Torquay on a full time basis give up his job for a few months for. It won't happen. Get used to it in this league. Well 3 Taunton players have joined Yeovil since pre-season, so obviously it can happen. Two in the last ...

I was at the recent Taunton/Yeovil game. Zac Bell was the most impressive Taunton player on the night. Looked rather like the sort of right back we had hoped Dylan Crowe would be. A similar stature to Crowe, Bell was comfortable on the ball, quick, sharp in the tackle and most importantly knew how t...

Gary is being totally unfair on Osman Foyo. He is a midfielder who has occasionally played at fullback. A 19 year old pushed into a lone forward role in his first senior games. Hardly giving the lad a chance. Another illustration of enlightened recruitment. Jarvis has been unavailable since late Oct...

Marshall left the pitch injured, so has to be a doubt.
I am hoping Lapslie going down twice in the final few minutes was time wasting tactics. Given Tom's injury record I doubt it.
Also the team has to survive a Johnson/Downes training session, which much more injury inducing than playing a match.

Rumour is Donellan wants out thats why he hasnt featured. Dont know whether thats correct. Rumour from where? A player wanting to leave is not a reason for him not to play, if he is part of your best eleven. His performances have been consistently better than half the team. So if he does "want...

Double shocker.
Breakaway goal.
Scoring first early.

Who is on the subs bench.

BBC commentary available.
Though you do have to listen to Dave Thomas doing his "Gary my Hero" comments and sycophantic attitudes to CO

How you view a kit is all about opinions. My opinion. Quite possibly the worst kit of all time. Being a traditionalist, what are those triangular stripes all about. Colour mix a mess. In general yuck. Having an away kit that is a little playful is just about tolerable. Mucking about with home kits i...
