Sounds like a promising start. Young has hit the outside of the post with a free-kick, while Ajala and O'Achie have missed good chances.

Does anyone know why Radio Devon doesn't work on the iPhone/Pad? Also, who is commentating with Steve Breed? He's Scottish and his first name is Paul. They make a good team.

Always been a Herb Alpert "A Banda" fan myself, but yes, yes, lets have The Liberty Bell March. There is the Pythons connection, filming in Torquay in 1971, John Cleese connection being inspired to set Faulty Towers in Torquay, and his brilliant comment "...and I for many years followed the hilarious antics of Torquay United at Plainmoor".

It all falls into place - we are not deadly serious at TQ1, and "we are the best" or some rock anthem is not for us. Got to be the Pythons theme, surely.

we could also sing "always look on the bright side of life" the connections still there and it describes following the gulls to a T. We have to look on the bright side of life or give up the will to live!

we seem to be showing signs of outplaying them in most areas of the park. having said that. we cant relax for a moment. Nuneaton may yet spring a suprise and after that penalty call i wonder if our luck is against us today and we will have to grind this out. And just as i say that Ricey had to make a great save.
We need to reply with a goal or two to dampen them down. funny how we tend to commentate on games. driving from defense and square balls. etc. have we got 4x4's on the pitch.with odd shaped balls.

yyeessssssss. luky... nice one son

1-0 - Young 25-yard strike into the bottom corner moments after Rice made an excellent save.

[OllieGull]

Sounds like an abysmal referee as well...

[Glostergull]

i am assuming Nuneaton my well get a telling off in the half time talk and may well shut up shop in the second half. assuming also that they are not good enough to compete at this level. or they are operating below par. in which case we do really need to capitalise in our dominance in this half. retain possession as much as possible and get our qouta to put the game to bed in the first half so they cant come back.
Having said that. Encouraging start and may we kill this game off quickly

[Glostergull]

yyyeeeesssss. Bowman.... Oh no.. mistake by commentators. Luke Young .. nice on fulls. Cooommmeee onnn yooo yelloowwss.. Chapell on Cameron off. injured.

[Gullscorer]

Ajala doing well for us, though to be fair we're all playing well. Fowler their best player.

Another from Luke Young. Great goal..

[girlygull62]

yesssssss!!!!!!!!

[tommyg]

2-0 - Young brace after being set up by Ajala and O'Achie.

[Glostergull]

noticed they have siad Fowler has no number on his shirt. I thought there were rules governing this. what does the ref do if he has to book him

[tommyg]

3-0 - Downes with a diving header from a corner.

[Glostergull]

whayy to go guys, 3-0 Downesyyyy. great to see defence attacking as a unit as well. seems we are runnning away with this one as we need to. Going into half time we look comfortable. another goal and we go in 4 up with very little chance of them coming back. we need to put it to bed now. game over.!
