Over 1,000 Torquay fans away on a cold Tuesday night at Weston Super Mare. Amazing support for conference south football.

Went to Torquay for the pre-season friendly, during that hot weather. To be honest, I thought they were still in league 2, and was very surprised to see how far they had dropped down. Kept an eye on their scores this season. Agree, Annis, great support.

Dave, very sad to see ex League clubs go out of the league, but even worse to see them then go further down, yes great away support :thumbright: :thumbright:

Thwy are still a well supported club for the level they play.

They have just secured funding and given permision to build a new 15k seater stadium expanding to 30k by taking away dividers across the stands. Its a unique design which drops walls from the roof of the stadium so the ground is as big as needed for each event.

Its quite impressive and should enable them to make a return to the football league under new ownership.
