Ex-Gull watch

Klaidi Lolos - remember him: the subbed sub. Good to see him score to put Crawley level in their 2-1 win over Notts County. A regular in the side and second top goalscorer it goes to show there is life after Torquay United.

Torquay United v Taunton Town TUE 12th.

Not sure what I just witnessed tonight. The scoreline is easy to read 'Professionals 0 - 3 Schoolboys'. Sat's win must have gone to our heads as for the first 30 minutes we play out the back thinking we are Man City - 2 goals later we are clueless. Second half we decide to drop the Man City tactics ...

Where's the money going?

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...

Osborne gone!

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...

Osborne gone!

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.

Farnborough v Torquay United Tue 20TH

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...

Farnborough v Torquay United Tue 20TH

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 ...

Farnborough v Torquay United Tue 20TH

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
