Great read in the context of a interesting article.
But however tragic how we have been tangled up with this bulldozer of a businessman

History doesn't lie , he would not care if he made a mint and we ended up with no stadia and no club

I have just tweeted this to several people at Talk Sport. Regular listeners will know that Torquay pop up on there quite often so this may be of interest to them. Bob Mills in particular champions non league teams and their issues

Not in my opinion; to be 'well writen' it would need to be factually correct........

'Ownership of the club eventually moved to a new consortium made up of ten local business people in June 2015'? Well we know that's a load of cobblers for a start

'The last set of published accounts for The Torquay United Association Football Club Ltd (for the year to the end of June 2016) showed the club to be just over £2.1m in debt'? No they didn't!

Agree with Merse.

Also if i may add

'but Torquay United is at the cusp of what is starting to feel like a fight for it's very existence................'

Errr, for those of us with half a brain the cusp was years ago. To anyone who is only now coming round to thinking that TUFC are in serious trouble...........where you been you thicko's!!!
