From what I could see, looked about 800 or so ( that's the normal full away allocation )

The Master thatcher is the nearest I think, on the same road further down. Will be there to night as is just round the corner, might as well predict while I'm here, Taunton 0 Torquay 3 easy for you.

I was being kind earlier on, let's get things into perspective here: That was one of our worst 5 home performances this season, but all the same we won at a absolute canter. You have got a *lot* of improving to do to even harbour realistic hopes of a promotion challenge in the NLS. Saying we were po...

Fair play to the fans, still made themselves heard at 3-0 down

Just on my way back. You aren’t a poor side, just seem to have no organisation. Toothless up front, and seem to make the wrong decision at important times. Far from the worst side I’ve seen at HP, but nethertheless a long way off a promotion winning side. It was like playing a team of half decent pl...

We are poor at the moment, can't play at home so going for the surprise Yeo 0 Torquay 2

For goodness sake Yeofan, will you give it a rest. Nothing worse than an ‘I told you so’ post. You alluded before you have lots of experience in fund raising, have you offered your services yet? Maybe just enjoy your clubs success, or get them to reproduce the fantastic gesture Weymouth did for us....

Talks about a "sustainable model" , which I was decried for suggesting as possible .....

In a crappy location making it very difficult to attract enough good quality part-time players as their opportunities for their professional careers are limited. We've just had full time NL level and it cost £1million a year of external funding to support that, so what is changing? The average annu...

So what ? As part time, surely the biggest (by a country mile) team in NLS can get themselves promoted. Then at NL level where full time is the the norm, go full time.

Has the thought of running 'sustainably' not been mooted ? I.E not needing someone to pump money in ?

Obviously need some fat trimming off, but if CO is writing off his debt, then why is this not a possibility ?

Neither Truro or Taunton have played a game at Taunton in the 5 weeks since the groundshare was announced.

I contacted Yeovil suggesting they offer the same deal as Weymouth for the away tickets for the Yeovil v Torquay game. Hope they see sense.

It's off. This groundshare really isn't going well. Still 20 games to play, and only March and April left.

Yeofan, what a petulant child you are, it’s all about you. You came on here asking mundane vague questions and start stamping your feet when told we have more important things to worry about. To then proclaim like you’re the next Alan Sugar, flippantly use his catchphrase when we’re in dire needs, ...
