Torquay according to todays commentary have already scored more goals and attained more points than all of last season, they are on the up. Unlike Delilahs sinking ship.

[/quote] they have more money than us.... and that is FACT, Little Torquay, a team that has spent 86 years in the toilet end of the football league, their debt of 6 million was wiped out in the summer and their new owner has made money available for the manager to spend,.. hence they are top of the blue SQ prem. So Delia, how can a side that has never been in the 2nd tier of english football, at the A**e end of the country, further away from London than we are, with a rubbish stadium, rubbish Facilities, no rival for miles around and only the Atlantic sea to keep it company attract investment.. and us, a club that has won 2 league cups, was in the top flight 3 years ago and has all these business ventrues, a great training ground and stadium and sell out crowds, cant?i do not believe Delia when she says no one is waiting to invest in the club... and one look at Torquay is the reason. jas :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
