Johnson latest drivel

Genuine question asked in the spirit of forums are designed for all opinions. I am keen to hear from any pro Johnson supporters on why he is still the man for the job. I think he should have gone months ago but respect the fact others may think differently. If so, why?. It is a good question and wo...

Worthing v Torquay United - Saturday 27th January 2024

Going back to the OP, for those of you wanting a QUIET drink beforehand you would be advised to avoid The Railway Inn... https://x.com/wfc_awayboys/status/1750631793919758371?s=20 The ABF styles itself like a 'firm' but is peaceful and normally well self policed, existing purely to support the club...

Worthing v Torquay United - Saturday 27th January 2024

Saturday see us travel to Sussex, to play Worthing - My home town. Worthing, currently sit second in the table and score goals for fun. If we only win one more game this season, please let it be this one. About 50 guys from my golf club will be attending this game, mostly hoping to get one over me. ...

Full time/Part time

Location Location Location.
Let's be honest, some of our players are miles off others we see week in, week out from visiting teams. A London cabbie earning £100k plus, playing part time for a team within 50 miles of London will not located to Torquay. Simple. . .

Ben Wynter

And before anyone asks or thinks about it. He will not be returning to Torquay. His family and his partners family are all from the London area.

Just remember the great days he had for us and that goal at Woking in front of the Ben Wynter stand.

Positive Thoughts only!

With my "positive" head on, I predict a 2-1 victory this weekend. I fully expect Yeovil to rest several first choice players. On the other hand we have to play our new additions to cover for the "crocks". The league reamains our priority but the tile is gone, so we are aiming fo...

MOTM - Havant

This is a tough one for all the right reasons. Donnellan - won everything and covered across the back three very well. Archer - not the finished article, but cover large areas, gave the midfield legs. Williams - some great attaching lines and took his goal well. Ash - was a right handful. Got their ...

Ethon Archer

I firmly believe this is exactly the type of squad player we should be signing. If we could get the first choice 13 /16 players right, a handful of guys like this would be very welcome. Some will work out and develop, while other may not. I believe the negative comments reflect on the first choice e...

George Edwards

Let clear up a few points, I was standing beside the guy asking good questions. I thank him for this. George confined a few things. The new ground is still planned. The finances are very good. It became clear getting players to relocate is a big issue. As others have pointed out, as the group got la...

Hampton + Richmond v Torquay United Sat 28/10/23 3PM

We apparently had a good budget, but getting players to relocate is a challenge. Be honest, is location hurting us in the current climate!

Sadly, this could be the result that highlights our shortcomings. Being a cup game, I can't see any loan signings appearing.
