Torquay United Fans Forum

No probs Dave. I'll pop into boots for half an hour next time i'm down and say hello mate.

I responded Andy me old mate, can't do a nigth out, could do a meet up at a game. As others have said think you should wait untill the fixtures are out pick a game offer the option for a night out or no 10's at a game and let the majority rule.

Loads of people pretending to be me SBG?

NOBODY will come then!

One is bad enough.

Of course we could get a set of shirts made up all with the name AustrianAndygull and all turn up - speaking in a northern accent - about how cr#p we think Billy Bodin is and see if anyone can identify the real Andy!!!!!!

That's a great idea SBG and it would be a way for people to identify us and we could all meet and have a laugh and a chat but like your thread on what we think forum members will look like, that died a death straight away as most people on here generally only want to post serious things about TUFC and not join in with much else. Ok I know it's a TUFC forum for things about Torquay but it's fun when a variety of people post about random rubbish IMO.

What i'm saying is that i'd be up for it but I don't think many others would be sadly which is a shame.

Obviously being an exile I dont make as many home games as away games and so could struggle to make such a pre/post match forum.

However how about this for an idea;

Why dont we ( forum members) get some t- shirts made/ bought from the club shop and have our forum names printed on the back

At "FORUM" designated games - either home or away there could be a venue pre/post match to meet up

This would help sad "Billy No Mates" like me who attend away matches nearer home who doent know anyone

Andy, good idea but will prove for some difficult to attend(if they wanted too) due to the vast geographical location of members. However a more viable option is for us northern based members to meet up at a chosen northern away match(excluding Accrington). I would be happy to do this, but like others have stated lets wait until 9am 19th June

He can stand outside in the rain!

Andy, it's a good idea but as someone else has said above, wait for the fixtures to come out, give a couple of months notice and then see who replies.

Not sure I could stand being in the same room as Matt and Brucie (imagine!) but I'm sure a few beers would dull the pain.

Maybe we could hire a box and stuff our faces in No.10's before the game. I think this was done last season wasn't it?

Still it's early days............................................

Give it more than 24 hours mate!!

Once the fixtures come out and people start planning their trips etc, you will get more of a response.

Cheers Gaz. It doesn't look like it will happen though. At least Mav came on and gave a response but i thought there might be more than a couple of people who are good for a laugh, a few beers, chat about the footy and have a good time for a few hours in a year.

My ego won't fit through most doorways, heck that rules me out then..

Great idea Andy, If this is going to happen though we should set a date or a game as soon as the fixtures are released so we can plan booking days off work etc for those who will travel a few hundred miles, like myself. I've met quite a few of you on here already and like to think of those select few as friends now. I think it will do the forum some good to know who is actually behind the keyboard so to speak. I guess we'll wait and see.

That's the spirit, Mav! :~D
