Potential Buyers

I completely agree Edwards and Hayman are toxic and have been a huge part in the demise of our beloved club over the last 6 years

But if they are employed by a consortium of wealthy local businessman does this spell the end? If if people do think that why? I assume any new owners will have learnt the lessons of CO and won’t be trying to sell Plainmoor for housing.

We did have a modicum of success for a few seasons but after Ashton Gate it seemed the investment slowly fell off a cliff which has left us where we are.

Don’t get me wrong I hope with all my heart they aren’t involved but if they are they must engage with the fans and will need to do a shit tone of work to try and win people over. I fear for many the damage is done and they won’t be forgiven.

:lol:



Yes, I know you meant Worthing, but after we've played Welling this post can be just cut 'n pasted.

:keepie:
Welling/ Worthing/ Woping?
Who knows but they ran rings around us.
Sad that we are in the same league as any of these

Torquay v Chippenham Town 15/08/23 19:45

2 games ago most would of predicted we smash Chippenham so what has changed?
As someone mentioned Dover was a lack of concentration and we should have seen them off.
I don’t believe we will come up against a better footballing side than Welling all season and they will be right up there (I think they will struggle on a heavy pitch in the middle of winter)
So I still have it that we win comfortably tonight. Saturday was terrible one of the worst performance in years but I back us to bounce back tonight.

Players Under Contract

I agree Da Silva was over rated and we have had much better. It was more of a thought his level may be NLS.
I’ll be shocked if QPR keep him. He is young and raw

Players Under Contract

This who I would keep/ who I think we are likely to keep for next season. I think this would be the basis of decent side for next season with some good additions

Halstead
Lovett

Moxey
Donellan
Crowe (has been shocking but I think there is potential)
Martin
Wyatt (again I think there is a decent player there)

Hall
Dawson
Stobbs


Jarvis

I think Lapslie will go and although I think he is good. I guess he is expensive and can never string more than a handful of games together. So he can go.

Hansen and McGavin - whilst that have been disappointing they will be under contract and maybe playing a level down is what they need.

Perhaps we see a player like Da Silva back. I can’t see QPR keeping him and NLS might be good for him to tear up for a season.

Torquay Utd v York City - Sat 15th April 3pm

Admiral wrote: 15 Apr 2023, 19:42 Let’s not all start thinking Johnson is the messiah again, it was embarrassing to see the same kids that were calling for his name two weeks ago (after 38 dreadful games) singing GJYA at Maidenhead! Fans are fickle.

But, this isn’t about Johnson in or out, we simply have to get the results and have been recently. fantastic run from the lads. 5/5 was unthinkable, 4/5 pts would do it I think.

Massive win, onto Tuesday (a point would be a good result)
He’s not the messiah. He’s a very naughty boy!

Torquay v Wrexham Tickets

Thank you very much to those that private messaged me, I'm very grateful for your help.

Looking forward to a great weekend on the English Riviera to hopefully end our stint in non league purgatory.
I hope non of our fans are helping Wrexham fans gain access to the home end.
I have nothing against fans wanting to see their team triumph but it isn’t our problem you can’t gain access through the correct channels.
I am sure you and most will be respectful but I can assure you some won’t and it will cause trouble.
Do the right thing Torquay fans

Torquay v Wrexham Tickets

Torquayonatuesdayni wrote: 03 Apr 2023, 18:11 Greetings,

Aging Wrexham fan here. A different slant on things. As one who has been to Torquay many times , especially on Tuesday nights as one of our relegation songs went, not everything is as black and white as some are making out.

I’m lucky and got tickets this morning for 3 generations of Wrexham fans. However many of my friends, some of whom haven’t missed a game home or away in the last decade missed out. Especially if we have something to play for such as promotion, missing the game will be heart breaking. Long way to go before that scenario comes into play but it might.

The Hollywood bandwagon has brought new support. Sadly our ticking system only understands have you got a season ticket and not have you seen x,y,,z away games over the last umpteen seasons.

Hopefully you will have a great run and be safe come our fixture resulting in limited home interest allowing for a greater away allocation.

Nothing to play for Halifax have allocated us about 4,500 tickets that have all been sold for Good Friday. ££££’s un the bank. Hopefully you’ll be able to do the same.

you have a 6 pointer against York coming up. They were a shadow of their early season team when we played them a couple of weeks back. You have every chance of beating them.

Hopefully we’ll play again in the football league in the not too distant future. We are all football fans so are, in the main, dreamers. We could never have dreamt our current fantasy. You may be next. Who knows.

Good luck and see you for a promotion and staying up party. Now that has a good ring to it. Hears hoping.

If your Mrs cheated on you not once but twice.... Would you get back with her
Technically McDonald hasn’t cheated as no one seems to want him.
Are we saying my Mrs is offering it about but no one wants her?
