:goodpost: So up yours Arry' , why make it so personal ? when all you can do is bleat when your pathetic posts are challenged. So sad so very very sad, At least Merse & myself have at least half an ounce of knowledge of the way a 'pro football club' works on a day to day basis instead of coming...

Gary Owers

It's very simple; if Harrop and Osborne want to prove that they have learnt their lesson from this season, then they have to sack Owers and rapidly hire a replacement. Immediately . Why? [align=center] 1) HE HAS FAILED. [/align] Owers was brought in with most of a season to go, with one task: save ...

SHOULD WE MOVE TRAINING BASE AND GO PART TIME?

Excellent! Sounds very much to me like getting the base for next season's excuses in early: "But he had to cope with still having players who were on contract from Nicholson's days," people will whine. Owers knew what he was taking on (and if he didn't; he should have). He's taken eight m...

Who will be here next season in the NLS?

It'll be no cakewalk any more than National League has been a cakewalk since we dropped into it. People who think that way are idiots and it'll be the same old problem if the preparation is not spot on, which it hasn't been at Torquay for years. Remember how that plank Hargreaves thought he was goi...

Dover v Torquay Utd. SAT 7TH APRIL. ko.3PM

It does get very tiresome when every matchday thread, and pretty much every other one as well, ends up going exactly the same way, despite nothing having changed regarding Kevin Nicholson since August last year. The blame for the current mess and mix of players lies with those who run the club. The...

Dover v Torquay Utd. SAT 7TH APRIL. ko.3PM

'BUDGET'.... Is a fixed amount of money to be made available for a set period of time. So, if I were to have 'budgeted' myself to £100 a week for food & end up spending most of it by tuesdsy, how can I expect to eat in the best restaurants come Saturdays ? You can say what ever you want about M...

As a person with mild dyslexia I think I am painstakingly checking and correcting much of what I post; claptrap to you which is why you post moronic claptrap in response I guess.

Easter Monday, Torquay v Woking, 2/4/18

Exactly; the disastrous pre-season and the equally disastrous to persevere with Nicholson by Harrop is what did for this season AND the ridiculously long period between getting rid of him and appointing Owers. Harrop really didn't have a clue what he was doing and so we went from having an 'L Plate...

[highlight=yellow]Owers and Kuhl's points from games ratio notwithstanding; any manager who assembles a squad going into a season must take a huge part of the responsibility for the outcome of that season[/highlight]. The current management will have to take their share too; but let's not delude ou...

That's just total bullshit though. Do you not think that Owers isn't hamstrung by still having several unfit for purpose players on the payroll who he clearly cannot get rid off because no one wants them. How is Nicholson no longer culpable when he so criminally wasted the budget on a bunch of wast...

Your obsession with defending Nicholson is bordering on the unhealthy. Have a look at are first seven matches of the season 0-0 (against nine men) 2-3,0-3,2-4,2-3,1-2,1-4 Amongst those defeats we were beaten by the mighty Guiseley, Solihull and Woking (yes I know Nicholson wasn't in charge for thre...
