Thanks all, my name is Will by the way. My business is called View, hence the name.

I haven't had the promised call I was advised I was going to get regarding this issue so have tried calling the club a few times today with no answer. I assume no one is around today.

So people who just turn up on the day think they should be able to sit wherever they want But people who had the foresight to think that it was going to be busy and wanted to guarantee that they sat together booked their seats in advance shouldn't be allowed to because they couldn't get to the grou...

Thank you all for your kind messages and constructive feedback. I left my number with the head steward and the manager of the club shop asking for the chap in charge to make contact and gave them my mobile number. He was supposed to come and see me at half time but didn't bother and as of yet I have...

Thanks for the responses, I will email the club when I've calmed down a bit as still not sure what the policy is. We will always attend, if watching teams managed by Knill and Owers doesn't stop you a few seating issues certainly won't! In the scheme of things it's a good problem, we all want the gr...

Couldn't agree more Rob. No issues with seats being reserved at all, but we need to know rather than guess.

For us to sit there for 50 minutes before being forced to move with an 8 year old in tears and a 92 year old struggling down the steps while all look on is a new low in my book.

Issue is the chap on the turnstile advised sit where you want (as long as not marked as reserved) and the stewards we spoke to back this up but the club offer 'reserved' seats to some who book online.... That combination will only lead to problems and frustration and I've now got a little boy who do...

Great game of football today but unfortunately issues within the ground has caused alot of frustration with the club. We go with my 92 year old Grandad and my 8 year old son and as we knew it would be busy we got into the ground early (2.05pm). We were advised by the chap on the gate that we can jus...

Couldn't agree more, we have always attended when we can but traveling up from Tavistock it's at times been more for blind loyalty than enjoyment in recent years. My son is now 8 and although he has bought into being a gull to follow his dad and the rest of our family I've always felt guilty that al...

Gary Owers was not Harrop's choice. Instead as has previously been reported on here and BTPIR, Harrop's man was actually Ronnie Moore, who came down to watch a game at Plainmoor before Osborn went over his head and went with Owers instead. I spoke to Geoff on the phone the night before the appointm...

My hope is we get a 'big name' league 1 or 2 club at home as they would give us a chance to be on the TV.

I noticed this and have also not heard much about Harrop recently, who (judging by the speed) didnt seem to be involved in the appointment of GJ. I spoke to Harrop the day before GO was appointed to complain about the time it took and lack of progress and he stated it was his neck on the line if thi...

If you read back Brucie, I think you will find thats exactly what I said... he doesnt want to return but it may not be his choice.

He never settled here that's for sure, under the right circumstances I still think he could have been a decent player for us but it seems his desire to be here left about the same time as Nicholson did, so your right- If he doesn't want to be here it's better his wages are freed up for someone who d...

Gowling has no plans to return I'm afraid. May not be his choice I appreciate.
