With the reported “ biggest budget in the league” for next season, I’m hoping that we get a new manager with a CV that is on the up and not on the slide.

Welcome back Gary

Is he going to move down from Bristol for a Full time role or continue to stay part time.

Amazing how many people are in the know with regards to manager, owners, players, secretaries and the like

As reported by Dave Thomas on the Torbay Weekly website at 7am this morning in an interview piece with Neil Warnock.

Not really - as it came from someone who has a close connection to the club, I guess we can take it is that is correct.

It is also reported that Warnock and Wotton have been working on player-recruitment plans for several weeks.

Bryn were formally announced two weeks ago and prob got the nod a week before that. Let's just say they're not at a standing start, groundwork has been laid.

Announced that Downes has gone. Thank you for guiding us to safety amongst the choppy waters.
