Has O'Kane Gone Yet?

So, Bobby's gone all Posh.... Ellis has been shipped out to Crewe...


So, has O'Kane decided to stay at unfashionable Torquay or has he taken up the offer to john glamorous Crawley Town?


The sooner he makes his mind up the better. If you're reading this Eunan, do us all a favour and decide where you want to be so that Mr Ling can get on with building his squad for the coming season.

Re: Torquay United v Cheltenham Town - 17.5.12

Time to forget what's happened previously. I'm looking at it as ONE game where we've gone 2-0 down in the first minute. We've proved before that we can pull this back (2nd half at Edgar St).... so why not now!

Cheltenham will come and park the bus - however, I'm sure even we can outfox a bloody parked bus!

It's going to be tight... but we just have to believe!

COYY!

Re: Can we do it?

Yes. We. Can.

We are Torquay United... we don't do things the easy way.

Let's just get an early goal and put the pressure on them. Have faith!

Re: update page for play off tickets

Really wish I could get to this one, but with and lack of funds (mostly spent visiting Kingsmeadow and Edgar Street in the vain hope of seeing us secure that 3rd spot) it's the armchair and a few* beers for me on Sunday/Thursday....

....then I'll have to raid the kids’ piggybanks for Wembley tickets! =D

Re: Form going into Play-offs

We have to forget what has happened over the course of this season and just concentrate on the three* games ahead of us.

Our form over Cheltenham has been very impressive - they've only beaten us once in the last league 10 encounters - and that was way back in 2006.

It's not over yet!

Re: Hereford United v Torquay United - 5/5/12

Bloody hell... haven't been this nervous about a football game since Barnet - 11 years ago to the day!

And once again, a win for the Gulls will be sending our hosts down to the Conference.

Funny ol' game this football lark. Right... fry-up on the go.... fuel tank full.... tickets in glovebox (I actually put them in there yesterday so I wouldn't forget 'em - yes, I've done that before!)

Sat Nav set for somewhere near Wales.

Good luck lads.... :scarf:

Re: For all the...lads, give us a win!

For all our sanity... Give us a win!

For the fact that it's my wedding anniversary on the 5th May.... Give us a win! (sorry Mrs Wife.... but this is a little bit more important than flowers, chocs and a curry! - and at my age, that's all I could've hoped for!)

For the heartache suffered at Old Trafford... Give us a win!

For the bragging rights this could bring next season... Give us a win!

For those that prefer Underhill to Edgar Street... Give us a win!

For me and my son to be there when we hear that Accy are 3-0 up... Give us a win!

Re: MEMORIES

Phil Adams! That's the one.... I think the last time I saw him at Plainmoor was a good few years back and he was walking with a stick. Sorry to hear that he'd passed away.

....thought it was strange that Man U fans were there...makes sense now. I seem to remember the crowd doubling in size nearing the end of the game.

Re: MEMORIES

Remember it well Robbo! my very first away game.... arriving in that god-foresaken northern wasteland at something like 9am.... and sod all to do apart from mooch around before heading off across what seemed like acres of wasteland to Workington's palatial stadium.... I'm sure we won that 4-2 and remember the scenes afterwards with what I believe were Man Utd fans giving us a 'guard of honour' back to our coaches(!)...and someone called Phil(?) getting a real good kicking.....

happy days!

Re: Hereford Tickets On Sale at Plainmoor

Just got this through:


TORQUAY UNITED PRESS RELEASE
Tuesday, May 1, 2012
BACK ON SALE
TORQUAY United have managed to acquire a few extra tickets for Saturday's crucial clash at Hereford.

Our original away allocation for the potential promotion fixture at Edgar Street sold out on Monday but a small amount of additional tickets have been made available to the Yellow Army.

We are naturally expecting these extra tickets to sell fast and they will be available on a first come, first served basis.

The Plainmoor ticket office will be open from 9am on Wednesday morning or you can call us on 01803 328666 option 0, but lines will be busy and chances of securing a ticket over the phone are limited.

Re: THE COWSHED

I'm a bit too young *cough* to remember the 'cowshed' but have very fond memories of cold wet Tuesday nights crammed into the ol' Mini Stand.... happy memories indeed!

Below is a clip on YouTube which just shows what a palatial home we once had! :keepie:
