Utmost respect to Argyle fans supporting us - what REAL football fans are all about. To any PAFC fans reading this -a warm welcome for Tuesday and a BIG THANK YOU!

City fan in peace, gents.

Just thought I'd sign up to let you all know, that there are a fair few Exeter fans also popping along on Tuesday night to support your boys. Although, even though I say this, I believe they're going in the away end as they're only young lads, and don't want to end up getting into any sort of trouble with Argyle fans (not saying there will be trouble makers there, but you never know)

Unfortunately I won't be there, but I sincerely hope that you get out of this mess and join ourselves and PAFC back in the league sooner rather than later!

I couldn't agree with you more.

Sorry you feel that way because that isn't the intention. I am pretty sure most of us wouldn't be getting off work early, paying for a coach ticket and also a match ticket on a Tuesday night to patronise you.

Don't apologise, Wozzer. Pay no attention to Eddy. It's a fantastic gesture from you and all other Argyle/City fans making the trip.

Already said by me and others but this is what real football is about, especially so down here. The Westcountry clubs have to stick together! Full respect to Argyle and City fans who attend.

Can't express my thanks to rival clubs' fans for this gesture.

PAtronising? Schmatronising. This is a welcome, genuine act of support, and I for one will accept it gracefully. I hope to be able to buy one of you visiting fans a pint in the nest.

Be sure to let us know if you're planning on doing another Fans United game, and I'll make sure to pop down, and let as many other City fans know about it and get them down too!

I and, I'm sure, all true Torquay supporters are humbled by these demonstrations of support from both our Devon neighbours, which are so much appreciated.

We may have our friendly local rivalries on match days, and we all have our share of occasional young trouble-making idiots in need of re-education, but ultimately we'm all Deb'mshire buys and, whatever league our teams happen to be playing in, we're all lovers of the great game. Not to mention a pint or two together in the pub after the match!

Long may it continue, for all of us.

Ok thankyou, I'll be on the coach.

No, Pafc1985. Come into the ground. I'm not bringing it out to you

Glad you only said 'one' .. but that could cause problems unless you also have a packet of straws so the rest of them can share it!
