Potential Buyers

Yeofan, what’s the point of you posting on here? You have offered nothing apart from vague notions of ‘Alan Sugar’ expertise of raising funds, but without any intention of actually helping us and the odd ‘I told you so’ post. You obviously also have no sway within your own club, did you offer your s...

MOTM - Yeovil

Hall - did well first half, timing his tackles and jumps well, he also smashed anything even remotely dangerous 40 yards down the pitch. Second half they adjusted and put him under more pressure, one 25 yard pass he tried was just a give away back to Yeovil which summed up much of our second half. ...

I can’t believe anyone has the nerve to even post this drivel. A national property developer helped a businessman to buy Torquay to put pressure on the council. How could Torquay put pressure on the council, the threat of administration? What land did the expressly wish to get their hands on to make...

Yeovil Town v Torquay Utd Friday 29th 3pm

Yeovil weren’t that good, we gifted them the goals and the game. Ball given away to us in our half and we then give it away for them to score, unforgivable really as up until then it was even. Second half was a non event with Moxey embarrassed for one goal. Ash, you only had scraps but you have to g...

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. ...

Yeovil Town v Torquay Utd Friday 29th 3pm

Its going to be a long afternoon, if Dawson, Jarvis and Marshall are fit, a 3-0 loss
If they’re not, a 6-0 loss.
6000 with 650 from Torquay, including me.

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

Keep Collins? Have you seen him, he’s been hopeless all season. I’d imagine Dawson was originally only meant to miss maybe the first month/6 weeks of the season, who knows what went wrong. At least a few players would have signed two year contracts at the beginning of the season, seeing as Johnson a...

Staying Up - Relegation Battle

Booth must have been offered 2 years to persuade him to go full time. TBH, would Lapslie, Dawson, Stubbs and Ash have signed one year deals only? Maybe they signed two year deals but with a ‘if no promotion Clause’ written in. You’d assume Hall and Moxey were only offered one year deals though. Jarv...

MOTM - Hampton & Richmond

One of those days that’ll stay with you for a long time. Moxey - that goal line clearance was spectacular and so important, it felt like he won everything and popped up everywhere. Hall - I thought it was a big mistake when I saw he was playing him at the back, but he did a fantastic job and proved ...

Ahh, thanks for that

I knew it was Dons last game for us and thought Warnock took over from him.

Torquay United v Hamptom & Richmond Borough Sat23rd (Devon Day)

What’s the point in a ‘I told you so’ post Mini?

With Osbourne and Johnson In charge we’d have had 1600 here today and a club that was dying slowly. This way we will live with a new owner or die and start again. We certainly wouldn’t have had 3000 odd there today.

Neil Warnock great bloke

He's a marmite manager. If he's yours, you love him, the opposition, you hate him. From what I remember, (though I don't trust my memory much anymore) we'd played well but ultimately lost 4-3 at Argyle and then had been abysmal in that 1-8 defeat to Scunthorpe. Those defeats seemed terrible until th...

So not quite all tits up. £20k a month will see us able to pay all employees. We need as much money as possible from the last 3 home games to help us through to May. There must be someone who doesn't have the funds to buy us but could give us enough to keep going. Also shows how much the snake Johns...

Tonbridge Angels v Torquay United, March 16 3pm

I’ll take a guess that we did ask for a fee, they said no and would instead just wait for his contract to end (I’m guessing June). We’d have been stuck with a player who didn’t want to stay and didn’t want to get injured. Maybe the money saved helped sign Booth?
