After watching Gowling's performance today I don't think there can be any doubt the right person was chosen as captain.

Anyway, club captain.....

I'd like Luke Young to be captain personally.

The attitude towards him has been quite agitated, arrogant and at times Torquay fans have come accross as a bit big time Charlie.

So he matches and compares a TUFC news item or topic with a Barrow one, AND! So he calls things by the wrong name and comes accross a bit pedantic, And!

We are supposed to be a friendly, family orientated, welcoming club and I thought that included the forum. Ray may be a little different, he may just be an old fuddy duddy or it may be something like Merse has pointed out, but for Gods sake everyone who is bothered by Rays postings dont be so bloody ridiculous, if you dont like it keep scrolling.

But you don't get me wanting the other point of view either banned or the poster black-balled do you.

His posts certainly bely signals of that condition; and whilst it might be irritating to some, it is nothing to persecute or disrespect him for.

Please be tolerant of those different than you!

If he is a wind up he will keep doing it as some just cant help but bite, if he is autistic (or similar) and enjoys posting on here then I hope he keeps doing and I hope people give him the respect he deserves.

Either way Ray is all right in my book and if he does decide to come down when we play Barrow Id be more than happy to meet for a pint in the boots and laces before the game and talk about his team.... who is he hurting?!

Pot/kettle? :-D

I actually find his posts quite funny, or should I say provocative. He certainly makes me laugh while watching others going off the deep end at him ;-)

Always happy to support a call for tolerance. I guess we will never know if Ray is 'sad. mad or bad' or anything else. Personally, I think it is a wind-up.

And I think Buckle did it as well when everyone had a go at wearing the armband in our Playoff winning season
Now that I have thought more about it I think Martin Ling did this as well. I believe Brian Saah was either captain or team captain and then someone else had that other role.

Does anyone know of a previous email on multiple captains. Ray wrote one previously about Barrow, it seemed to work well.

No. Gowling is captain.

I'm sure that was wonderful for Barrow
