I think more so now; the vital ingredient and stench emanating from the treatment room; is a plethora of experienced malingerers who don't like having their noses being put out of joint by a new management and turn every little niggle into a six week sicknote. Typical of a relegation squad!

The most common 'injury' within this squad must be bed sores!

Surely with the right positive dedication: players with the right nutrition, hydration, stretching, training, massage & so on; with a love for the club, where it is viewed as an honour to wear the Torquay shirt; where yesterdays failings are forgotten for a positive new tomorrow in the very next match. Then players wont get injured so much. Also the best of the lower leagues will be trying to sign for us if they can see the positive mindset.

How many points did we lose/forfeit whilst replacing him with anothor manager -12 wasn't it?

How many points are we adrift - 12 isn't it.

Ok we may not have won all those games but to me if we get relegated by 12 points ( in all honesty it will probably be more) I won't forgive/ forget the regime for that.

Look at Watford - manager in hours after his predecesssor sacked - look at Solihull.

We gifted anything from 1 to 12 points away due to Harrops inability to get a replacement in and that will play a significant part in our relegation. In reality I hope we do go down with a deficit greater than 12points or I will lay the blame on Harrop.

Your not stupid, as I'm sure you know, phoenix club just doesn't happen, the current die's the new club doesn't slot right in it's place, a phoenix club needs good people, needs money and it needs a ground, TUST is currently short of good people and money, and as Merse has already said, if the current club die's, the lease die's with it, so there's no guranrantee FC Torquay could use Plainmoor.

Trust me none of us are blind,naive, scared nor do we have our heads in any clouds, your way off the mark to even suggest that. If the club died tommoroow, or 6 months, or 12 moinths down the line, TUST the only viable hope to lead a fan take are not ready, if that were to happen I'll tell you straight, and trust me, I'm not scared, TUFC will be lost forever.

Surely you must realise this is about buying TUST some time.

By boycotting and depriving the club of money might mean administration, it might be the end of the current club, and it could be the beginning of a phoenix club. In my opinion its worth the risk, because if you lot cannot see that the club is dying, you are blind and very naïve.

You are obviously a load of scared, unconfident, don't like change and got your head in the clouds. You come on here and they say the club is dying and you want to feed the current owners more money, I cannot believe it.
