Torquay United Fans Forum

I've not criticised the people who attended, deserve full credit for paying to see shit, as I did, just wish everybody could at least attempt to make an atmosphere to lift the lads because Knill wont.

Directly after todays game, along comes tufcjeff, telling us how good Lavery is, and but licking the Argyle fans, who to be fair at best were awful, Gnome park was like a library until they scored ..only sing when you're winning cobi budge, it is you again, I know it is.

What?

I joined the site after goin to my first game in a while.

O'Connor and Hawley were alright, the rest, pshhhh.

Got the ball turned and ran at the defence, gave a forward pass
Hawley got the ball went backwards and gave a sideways pass

Thought he was crap to be honest.

That quick striker they have (laveray?) looked good though, was all over the place.

Our defence coped in the first half but was shite in the second.

Knill out.

Big round of applause for everyone who went today..

Edit, starting to think tufcjeff could be a Plymouth fan.

It was an alright turnout but not compared to recent seasons, but I must admit, I was considering not going due to the weather and our position, but ill be honest I don't get to many games atm due to ill health.

still think we have the team to stay up, but Exeter and Plymouth both had more desire than us

We occasionally sung 'yellow army', apart from that, not much.

Thought the home atmosphere was alright.

Plymouth sold out the away end here and brought over 1500? 3 seasons running?

Also, I think it was a goal scoring chance, even so, if it wasn't, still a very violent challenge.

Just got home, some thoughts.

We were disappointing early in the match, Poke made a very good save, and then Reid fluffed a good chance for Plymouth. While we had a lot of first half possession we never really did much with it, a few speculative efforts was as close as we came. Plymouth played on the break and did it fairly effectively although the conditions blocked out both sides.

In the second half, quite simply, we were crap, they were average, and the biggest difference was the desire, Plymouth had more and deserved the win. McCormick kept us out with some good saves, and his control in the air was evident, can see why Plymouth fans rate him.

Poke perhaps should have been sent off in the first half, glad he wasn't, would have been more behind.

Poor turnout from Gulls fans, but that didn't disappoint me to much, the silence did, outsung by the home fans. Also, about half of the fans left as soon as the second went in.

Dissapointing day, it's going to be a struggle, unfortunately Plymouth were better, and they look a side who are ready to push up and mount a play off push.

You thought we deserved something from today's game?

We were outplayed, we were crap, Plymouth were alright, they deserved to win.
