I used to live in Leeds. A colleague was a Torquay fan and we used to travel down to most home games for a few seasons - he had a boss who was French who thought for the first couple of years we were going to Turkey every weekend.

I know who to ask for a lift then!

Theres a Burnhamgull on this forum too so that makes 4 of us! - almost enough for a supporters club!

complete opposite here in sheffield, i get nothing but admiration for supporting torquay united, and doing as most sheffielders do, supporting my local club.
guess they're quite lucky in having a choice of two clubs to support in one city, most young uns either wear red or blue and you dont see many prem clubs shirts compared to elsewhere

Saw some prat at Plainmoor for the Pompey game, wearing a Liverpool shirt.

Worse than Hitler.
