29 May 2021. Who will be Top of the National League?

Nemane suffered a freak accident broken leg in the gym when doing rehab from his initial injury, hamstring was it? I can't remember.

I think it's win the league or bust for us this season. I think the teams in the play-offs (mainly Hartlepool and Stockport) have strengthened and have already somewhat accepted the play-offs is where they'll be so I can't see us going up through that route.

Having said that, we do still have an incredible chance of automatic! Weirdly I think the two strongest squads in the league now are Hartlepool and Stockport, but us and Sutton are ahead of them enough to make it a two horse race, and I still believe we're better than Sutton.

I'm backing us to win the league with lots of twists, turns and unpredictable results along the way. COYY

Bristow's Bench

Sorry for digging out a (very!) old thread... But I didn't think it was worth starting a new one!

But... I've thought this for a while... Although Bristow's Bench offers an exceptional view to sit in, I've always thought it looks a bit scruffy on TV and from the Popside, and it stood out a bit to me on Sunday on TV. Not the actual seats, they look superb, but the concrete blocks below the seating.

I think it just looks a bit... unfinished? Especially as most of the time it's all you see on TV from the main camera position. Whether it needs to be painted, or we missed a trick not putting a small row of terracing in like the old Grandstand (probably restrictions on new terracing).

Not sure what I'm asking to be honest... just sharing a thought!

What would you like to change at TUFC?

Would be relatively easy to organise, doesn't have to be exactly 100 kids. Just an open invite and take on all of them that turn up! Whether that's 70, 100 or 150. Pop up store on the pitch selling merchandise. Players stick around for photos and sign autographs afterwards. Damn, I've missed the survey!

What would you like to change at TUFC?

Hi chaps, long time reader, first time poster here. Be gentle with me! This isn't so much a thing I'd like to see change... more of a suggestion. I saw Dundee put this event on – inviting 100 school kids to play against them for their first pre-season friendly. A brilliant annual event that gets the next generation involved. I think it's something Torquay could mirror quite easily! See link below...
