Okay - I've been pretty quiet on here recently, so I might have missed this on any other thread, apologies if that's the case...

However, I've been wondering for a few weeks now, what the hell is the new blue mascot supposed to be that follows Gilbert the Gull around at Plainmoor for the past few home games?

I'm at a real loss....

Ta.

well, it's Igglepiggle from 'In The Night Garden' kiddies' programme...but I don't know why !!!!

Ahhh. I see. At least now I've no need to feel confused. So Iggle piggle was only a festive thing for ickle wickle ones?

(See what I did there)?

****.

Go to bed Matt, you've had a busy day. Good night, sweet (In the Night Garden) dreams !

Iggle Piggle has always been a big Torquay fan, and I think we have a sponsorship deal with the Ninky-Nonk(Iggle Piggle's public transport system) which is the reason for the Iggle Piggle coloured 3rd strip we wore at Home Park

Of course it's serious. I've heard a rumour we're taking one of the Tombliboos on a short term loan deal.

I have no idea why Iggle Piggle was there, but as he was just situated in the family stand, it was probably something just for the kids. I would have thought that someone had asked the club if they could do it.
