Thats very noble of you Troj :~D . I was going to have a crack at doing one the other night but just didn't get the time. ( sorry Nick) i haven't got the time now either so sorry. For what its worth i have a deep festive feeling that we shall get all 3 points tomorrow , probably 2-1 and we will put in a shocker against Oxford and lose setting it up for Home Park.

I saw Aussie the groundsman yesterday in the Union Inn and he said, "You're not planning to wear that Santa hat against Swindon ?"

I said, "Do bears sh*t in the woods ?"

I wonder how packed it will be on the Popside ?

3500 - 4000 in attendance ?

depends how many swindon bring, they'd get 8-900 with the grandstand missing, plus the usual 2100, then 400 floaters that like their boxing day fix, 3,427 for me

tight game but lose 0-2 i think?

Finishing the festive season on 40 points would be dreamland for me.

I'll settle right now for 5 points from these 3 games, 6 - 7 points would make me a very happy chappy and all 9 points would put me in the aforementioned dreamland.

;-)

cousins lad reports that its well busy down there today, plenty of swindon in boots too, hopefully it'll be plus 4k after all, but as usual, we'll no doubt put in a duff performance as we always seem to when the crowds turn up!!

A Merry Christmas to you all from Norway. Sounds like a positive start from Torquay. Hopefully we'll get something out of it. And as I am writing this we are almost 1-0 down.

COYY!!
