Postponing them....

It's due to a recent flood at the ground... but it certainly won't be doing their cashflow much good...

I did suggest somewhere that they played at Wrexham until their own ground is sorted, knowing how much the two clubs love each other....

All's well at Gulls with such wonderful owners...

Gulls fans are revolting!

And crisis averted, apparently, albeit these are now historic figures

the prospect of a trip to Lymington is clearly a scary one

Oh they're calling it "resigns" are they?

"Parted company" was the TalkSPORT version.

More publicity for NL football than usual on there, because the producer of H&J's prog is a Gulls fan, and they also had on celeb TU fan comedian Charlie Baker (I know you've never heard of him Del but he is quite funny, and the two do a non-league podcast so good for them...)

The people they had lined up for the job were:

Gary Johnson

Chris Todd/Lee Hodges or both

Sam Allardyce to prove how good he really is

Andy Jacobs suggested Antonio Conte for the same reason....

I've heard of Mickey Murphy the Baker

We do worry about you....

Glen Tamplin and Billericay FC are on a roll too with managers as well!

TU appoint Gary Johnson - that was quick!

He was on that list of possible names I mentioned above. Allardyce must have turned it down then....





The timing is interesting. Did they really not speak to him before dismissing Owers?

And he hopes to "lead the Club back to Division 2 and beyond" - now, "Division Two" hasn't existed for some little while, but I'm sure he knows more about football than I do....

At least they know they were first choice... oh, erm....

Lots of them... interesting to scroll down and see what it says about pitch hire costs...

So what's going on at Treyew Road .. home of Truro City? Nothing by all accounts!
It would appear that all remains intact down there, the pitch is still being maintained and used for training, the bar and Social Club is still open for use - so why the urgency to move matches up to Plainmoor?

Maybe these questions will be asked at the Open Meeting!

The importance of having a stadium available in August 2019 cannot be overemphasised."
