TorquayFans.com | Torquay United Fans Forum

I thought to myself that it would be interesting to create a poll on where TUFC fans are based around the country. We tend to have a large northern contingent which many I have heard before don't have a Devon accent like myself so I will also do a poll to see how many if us fans don't actually come from Torquay either. I would just like to find out that's all out of interest. Feel free to post any info too about location.

As I've started the thread then my vote is MIDLANDS and I live near Chesterfield.

Sorry Philgull! :Oops:

London completely slipped my mind mate (how ? It's bloody big enough! ). Maybe my dislike of the place is that embedded in my subconscious that I refuse to acknowledge it exists! :na:

No, you've done the right thing Phil and for nay others that may live in London just select home counties and post on here that you live in London.

Sorry all you London based Gulls for this oversight.

South West : Sidmouth. Oi kin 'ave a Debn aksent, depens oo I be talking to; bud oi kin speak proper too, to they puir dears wot can' understand I.

Good old Newton Abbot for me Andy, down by the bottom end of Milber woods, left turn onto the back road at Plainmoor in 10 minutes, sweet.

i was born in paignton (south devon) and have always lived there and probably always will.(yeah i know :Oops: )

I've ticked South West even though I consider the Bath/Wilts border as West... I personally only recognise Cornwall and Devon as being South West!!!

It is an interesting one that Bloggy. It is funny how people in different areas see other parts of the country. For example Chesterfield is in the midlands and although I consider it the south as i'm from Yorkshire it technically is. You would probably put Chesterfield in the north too even though it is the midlands. Also to many northerners anywhere like Swindon, Bristol , Gloucester, Cheletenham etc is considered the south west so I think that is why I omitted a 'west' option mate. Sorry.

anywhere past newton abbot is north or northern!

Sunny Cambridgeshire for me. I went for East Anglia/Essex even though I'm not really in either.
