Visited prestige on a night out this evening and witnessed James Hurst hit some one, got escorted out by bouncers n ended up running away from police, was duly arrested and put in back of a riot van, I don't tend to go torquay for a night out often but this weekend have ended up their twice, of which I've witnessed hurst out the night before a game and the second night watched him put in the back of a riot van, embarrassing, also to be fair the rest of the torquay players looked embarrassed by his actions, Shame that a talented problem has such problems off the pitch

Well if this is correct then what a disgrace this bloke is - and you wonder why we are in the bottom four.

Think it explains why he is playing at the level he is, undoubted talent but obviously has issues off the pitch! Is he the player with attitude problems set to leave on loan as rumoured?

Hopefully - he is no loss and will be playing park football before long.

He would be a loss. All players we have had over the years, who could do something special, have had 'issues'; Wes Saunders -knee, Jason Fowler -hip, David Graham - drink, Neville Southall - age. We have managed somehow to create an environment where they thrived. Shame if he goes he had the tools to be a bit special. Still, as we aĺl know though, a persistent negative influence can be debilitating.

James Hurst = Chris Zebroski

Been there, done that.

And we managed a few good season from Zebs before he ran out of lives.

Come on Brucie. Give Steve Breed a break.

You only have to read the site items on here to see the weekend he has had.

Torquay and him are just not having any luck at all at the moment and incessantly moaning on isn't going to help anything or anyone.

He's just fishing for a reaction. If he ever came face to face with Breedy he'd be a lot more respectful.

Is that right? I would tell him exactly the same as what I have written on here. The way that the postponement was handled was amateurish to say the least. Not updating your phone lines an hour after the game had been called off is quite frankly ludicrous. That hasn't anything to do with the website being down.
Some people want to massage Steves ego - I'd rather tell the truth.

Torquay are not having any luck? - jesus it rained, shit happens.

Our best player seems to be out on the razz every night.

Comparing Hurst to Zebroski is laughable. Hurst is nowhere near Zebs class and never will be as long as his arse points downwards

No, you wouldn't.

Unbelievable!

You really have to question the mentality of some people, I mean what sort of person goes out shopping for pine furniture at that time on a Saturday night??? As for throwing punches at people, I can only assume they must have had a sale on????

....... and even the great Robin Stubbs was not exactly renowned for being tucked up in bed with a mug of cocoa by 10 pm every night.

And Wrexham were scheduled to play Altrincham who also won through to the 2nd round so this seems a good idea. As long as it doesn't rain ........

It's a sign of the times youngsters just love trouble.

Got I hate miserable old gits with this mentality. The kids of today, blah blah blah
Truth is that things are pretty much the same as when you were growing up and kids are doing pretty much the same things as your generation did and your Grandparents were probably whining at the time about "youngsters love causing trouble".
