Keating has Left

Is this a loan to get more games or permanent?

Johnson out

Gary Johnson has my 100% support. This is not blind faith or some sort of vague hope. GJ has all the experience and contacts to turn this around. The owner is the one we should be encouraging to stick by Gary. Owners can be more fickle than the bedwetting fairies calling for his head. Grow some ball...

Johnson out

If Gary Johnson wasn't our manager I would be calling for him as exactly the man we would need to get us out of the shite. Fortunately he is our manager and will know exactly what needs to be done to get us out of the shite. Whether he is backed by the owner to do that we will see. An horrendous inj...

Harrogate v Torquay United 7/12/19

Where did the village idiot crazy28 come from? Gary Johnson is one of the best Managers in this league and the one above. Let the man get on with it. I doubt there is anyone feeling it more than him right now. He will be drawing on all his expwerience to turn this around. I honestly don't think it n...

Harrogate on Saturday

I would take a draw right now. Not expecting much from this game other than a spirited performance from the lads. Is there any chance this game could be called off? I think we could do with another week of rehab.

Torquay United v Stockport 30/11/19

Step back, take a breath. On any scale that was not a good 2nd half performance. GJ has ajob on his hands to lift the lads after that. It's clear that we're being over run in MF exposing our defence. We got away with it before because we kept teams under the cosh and worried about our attacking prow...

Eastleigh v Torquay United 26/11/19

The reality is that we are missing a large number of players who would normally start. Our backups are good enough but are not getting the luck their effort deserves. Are they perfect? Of course not, we're a National League team full of youngsters learning the game, cut them some slack. Do we have t...

Chorley FC v Torquay United, 23rd November 2019

Having a pop at Gary Johnson ia pathetic. We have virtually our whole first team out injured. We are Torquay United not one of the Premiershite franchises with 80 players ffs! GJ is doing a fantastic job with what he's got. He has never made excuses and is the perfect man to deal with this sort of s...

Seriously, Luton?? Why on earth would Jamie Reid go to that shithole? Not a chance in hell. If he does go, it will be to somewhere with a management team and Club with the same ethic and enthusiasm shown by our manger. I would suggest that Bristol city would be a more likely option or Bournemouth. L...

Torquay Vs Boreham wood Fa Cup 4th qualifying round19.10

Not confident about this one at all. We definitely need a Cup run so in typical Torquay fashion we will lose 2-3.

Stockport County v Torquay United 28/9/19

I'm going for a high scoring win 2-3 and a return of the fist pumping figure of GJ in front of the travelling faithful.

Torquay VS Eastleigh 7:45 24.9

In years gone by I would be questioning this and that. I would be nervous about our games and team. With our current manager at the helm I have never been less worried. Gary Johnson has been there, seen it, done it and will do again. We are in the best hands possible. If football was that simple we ...

Torquay United v Harrogate Town 7/9/19

With regard to attendance. I've said it before and I will say it again...........because of our location, we should go back to Saturday evening kick offs. By proper marketing to away teams fans we can promote a weekend of football. If they choose they could attend the Greek or GAWS game in the after...

Bolton and Bury

I agree with Dawlishmatt. While i feel for the fans, their team CHEATED by spending more than they had. By doing so, they CHEATED every point on their way to Promotion. I have no sympathy for The GAWS or the Greeks and believe they should have been thrown out of the league after CHEATING. The Cornis...

Bromley v Torquay United 10/8/19

GJ has kept the players he knows are good enough for this league and some the one above if they learn and improve. To label Jake as "shit" is plain ridiculous. A top player who had an off day, it happens. Too many players having an off day and we get tonked 3-0 in the first half. These lad...
