TUFC 3 -1 Dartford

Ever the optimist.

Weymouth 0 - 3 TUFC

Ever the optimist

If the first statement is true (5 million loan write-off) then I can buy into the second statement as the club would be attractive as a going concern. It's not beyond belief that Osbourne loan has been written off. The best option for him maybe is a 'charge-off' to remove the loan from their balanc...

She told me all monies owed to CO had been written off, up to you if you want to believe that On potential new buyers the response was; The club have had some positive feedback. If the first statement is true (5 million loan write-off) then I can buy into the second statement as the club would be a...

What a difference a week make: now in a relegation battle with the likes of Truro and Taunton.

TUFC 5 - 2 Aveley

Crazy score for a crazy week.

How about The Fragrance Group ? They have built / are building several new hotels in the bay . The Fragrance Group? The group that purchased the Palace Hotel and land in Babbacombe Road back in 2017 which later changed its plans from creating a new luxury five-star Palace Hotel plus homes to instea...

My mind immediately went there, not sure the NL suspend those decisions until the following season My understanding is that any club entering administration before the fourth Thursday in March would have an immediate points deduction. Administration can be tough to endure and could well see our clu...

So the Final Whistle blows: What now? Administration: point deductions, cost-cutting, restructuring debts and selling assets (namely players) to raise funds. We are up a creek without a paddle.

More likely he's after Clark Osborne's job. Spencer Day is a property developer whose only previous experience of football management was at Chertsey Town, a club he actually owned. At Farnborough he has loaned the club £1 million. Spencer Day was once known as Spencer Trethewy, the 19 year old yup...

Some quotes from Farnborough manager Spencer Day in post match interview: Torquay: "a fabulous club"; "a very big, big, club"; "big time, pro-time club"; "Torquay have got some fabulous players", "a really good side", "they have got so much qual...

On a serious note. The commentator on the livestream was in my opinion excellent tonight. Very fair and unbiased. Well done sir !! I thought he was auditioning to host a quiz show. As for the game, we were tight and compact but there was no creativity. Given the team was chosen from the best squad ...

I think the play-off's is now a lost cause. Nonetheless, surely a full-time outfit must have learnt something from 5 egregious losses in a row in a tin-pot league.

Farnborough 1 - 3 TUFC

Full time / Part time? Do you pay players more for their skill or because they can train more often? This could have a thread of its own. There should be massive difference in mentality (although not it appears at Torquay). When you’re a full-time footballer it’s your livelihood, it’s your living, ...

Start with delivering 11 bags of manure to the training ground to let the players know what the fans think of their performance. Should cause a stink!

There is definitely something strange going on, as I’m sure Clarke Osborne wouldn’t tolerate the same level of under performance in his other businesses, 100% correct. So why is Osbourne convinced he's onto a winner. It is evident that football side of the business is not his key financial driver.
