Another hard one to call, we've still only showed glimpses of the decent side we hope to be.
Would be nice not to concede, but will go for a 4-1 win, seeing as no one else has.

That was almost a carbon copy of Tuesday - dull as dishwasher first half and only slightly better in the 2nd

This will test the elevated crowds, we never looked like conceding or scoring today

Only bit of urgency came at the death which was far too late

Thought the new ST should have come on much earlier as Ash was proving nothing

We just looked a bit lost without a leader on the pitch

I'd also be interested in hearing from anyone in the corner of the pop or bristows on the offside at the end?

Was it a good goal?

sigh, another shocking decision thats costs us the win

However - we would have robbed it from Tonbridge - we didnt deserve to win

Thought the ref in terms of decisions had a good game, however he spent far too long chatting and slowed the game down more than our play did!!

From many angles, that’s a goal.

Well we all thought it was a good goal, also thought we should have had a penalty.

Dull/dreadful first half, poured forward in the last 15 of the second either through desperation or because Angels tired.

Not good enough again , that's 3 out of the last 4 home games we have failed to win
Again we only start playing when Hasani comes on . First half dreadful, never seen a Torquay team pass back and sideways so much , yes we keep possession but never create anything.

Have to say PW usually is very on it for the post match comments - openly admitted to not having enough quality in the final 3rd

The first half was very poor. We constantly passed the ball back or sideways. Any side seeking Promotion passes the ball forward.

I do not think we had 1 shot on target and really missed Cody Cooke.

The last 15 minutes we battered them but once again the Linesman was wrong as Jeffers was clearly onside when the kick was taken. Another Home win denied by poor Linesman.

A lot of poor sides in this League who are coming to Plainmoor and a draw will feel like a win for them.

We have to find a way of being more dangerous, not in the last 10 or 15 minutes, but from minute one.

if you thought we were bad against salisbury and we were, overall we were poorer today, I appreciate cooke was out but he is only one player, we should have had the nouce to adapt, we didnt, Ash cannot play as a striker, their centre half had the easiest game of their season against him. Mr Wotton please stop watching england games because it seems thats the way we play either sideways or backwards. I would love to see the stats but would give even money their small midfield no 7 ran more yards than the whole of our midfield put together.Second game in a row things did not happen until hasani came on. We have now drawn as many as we have won at home.
