Farewell to Frank Prince

Post by Scott Brehaut »

The club have announced that Frank Prince will be leaving at the end of November.

He's done some excellent work with the community, and deserves all the plaudits that come his way.

Did a very good job for the club, and probably the main reason for me getting into TUFC at all.

I came from a fairly typical scenario in Torbay, wheras whilst I was Torbay born and raised, my parents were from Birmingham and Manchester. Brought up in a family of Aston Villa fans, it was only through the Football in the Community program I even knew TUFC existed.

Through Frank Prince and the program, I got the opportunity to have the Plainmoor tour twice (one of which is was really ill, went away, blacked out in the changing rooms and had to be treated/brought round by the legend that was Norman Medhurst), scored 3 penalties past Ashley Bayes in the schools penalty competition and got my picture in the Herald thanks to going to football training in the retro Mod-Dec windows shirt.

Thanks for Frank, I got hooked and 21 years later I've just driven for three hours to watch us play Telford!

Great memories!

Remember Frank has been honoured by having his name imprinted on the Harry Bamford trophy and will be honoured at the Rovers v Torquay game at the Mem. :clap: :bow: :bow:
