Torquay United Fans Forum

Official crowd: 12836
Away: 1938

The largest total crowd of the season in L2.

Good luck for the rest of the season Gulls, I think we will be playing eachother in league 2 again next season.

Not making excuses in the slightest. The pitch was good, the ref was good and it was a good game. I am not saying the result is unfair.

Well done today Gulls.

I thought we gave you a good game, and we matched you all over the pitch. Both sides had pretty poor defences but good attack forces. If Chadders did not go off injured I think we would have got a point or a win.
I think we showed how improved we are since we last played you. A couple players over the coming weeks and we will be fine.

Good game, a draw a fair result but I wont begrudge you a win.

Until your roughly rugby tackled by one of our stewards and you go falling down the stairs, happens fairly often :sleep:

What I mean is, its not 'the devon derby'. yes its a derby match i suppose, however I consider derbies to have a bit of hatred between the team :devil: when actually i dont mind tufc in the slightest.

Was only looking for a few sensible replies

thanks.

Hello guys, just thought I would register and give some thoughts on the match tomorrow which I am sure you are all looking forward to.

So its the Devon derby, to be honest I dont call it the devon derby and never will, the devon derby is argyle against exeter, and maybe tufc against exeter

I am very much looking forward to a match in which crowd trouble wont be a problem. Always seems to be a friendly atmosphere when we play eachother and the banter earlier in the season was really good.

You must be warned though, we are a different side to the one you faced at plainmoor. That was our last league defeat and since then things have been on the up. 5 matches unbeaten, 2 wins and 3 draws. The team have showed incredible fight and spirit to get these results, especially to beat bristol rovers when 2 0 down at half time. Chadwick is the big man we have been lacking upfront, he works his socks off and wins nearly everything, Feeney will be making himself useful as usually, on the look out for chances and creating them himself. With darren purse in the team we look unbeatable at the back but he will be suspended so lucky howe is out for you guys i suppose, and to clear up what was said on the other thread on here, Purse will sign an 18 month contract somtime this month.

I didn't hear many positive comments about Ashley Hemmings from you guys, but to me he looks like our best player. He is sublime going down the left wing, pacy and looks to be able to beat any defender, not scared to go into a challenge either, superb player sofare and a fan fav.

At the back we still look rather shaky, but Blanchard is a good defender and tries his best to hold the back line. Onismor Bhasera is a championship LB and that makes our left side excellent.

Our real problems are in the centre of midfield, Walton seems to like having off days and it overrated while hourihane is ok but needs somebody decent next to him.

My score prediction: Argyle 2 TUFC 2
Our danger man: Ashley Hemmings and Nick Chadwick
Your danger man: Always impressed by Danny Stevens.
Crowd: 1050

Looking forward to speaking to some Gulls on the day, see you there guys
