    Squad Lists 2016/17

    Happy with that squad now. Cover in most positions. Was thinking the squad was way too thin but this last raft of signings ( Dunn , Harvey , Harrad, Evans, McDonagh) has helped.

    Any chance of one of the three being Jordan Evans? He has been really impressive on trial.

    We don't even seem to be bothering with trialists now . Hopefully he just has someone in mind. Players like Kaid Mohammed , Shaun Harrad and James Caton - I'd take every one of them here probably!

    I don't think so . Don't think we have a goalkeeping coach either . It's a bit threadbare at the moment . Hopefully these things are in place come 6th August . I know Nortei, Carra and Kai are very versatile in terms of defence and midfield cover. It's up front we are potentially screwed with...

    2016/2017 Pre-Season Friendlies

    White already injured . Proof in the pudding that we need to sign another striker. I just keep having visions of the Danny Wright season . Possibly would have been promoted if he hadn't of been out , was our only goal threat.

    We've only got 16 senior professionals signed up currently. The trialists weren't seen in our last friendly . Worried by the lack of depth at the moment . Mills has said he might sign 1 more player. 1 injury at any time and we are on the ropes.

    Torquay in crisis?

    Being fan owned probably wont be the joy that it seems initially. I can only speak from our experience but it took us a little while to consolidate from previous regimes. We are still fully coming to terms with it now due to the issues with the ground. Hopefully in the next couple of seasons it...

    Would have been decent enough for us.

    Bankrolled NL clubs

    We are solely fan owned . No Welsh Assemby Funding or any external investment. The university previously allowed us the stadium on a decent rate but now we have a long lease and it'll reportedly cost £200,000 to run in the first season . So we aren't getting any favours there anymore either ...

    True , Barry will possibly have something up his sleeve

    Just referring to Mills' quote in the papers the other week that he was happy with the squad now as it is . Save for maybe any surprises that could crop up . Sounded like he'd secured the squad he wanted

    I'm pretty happy with the defensive signings. It's just the lack of depth attacking wise that makes me think we will potentially come unstuck. I also refuse to believe that the whole budget will have been spent . There must be money available to give us more

    Thats possibly where the poo hits the fan abit because im not convinced we are signing one. Youth team goalie is my hunch.

    Its been a bit of a saga this one. I believe he would be a good signing though from what ive read.

    whats your honest belief on the season ahead? do you think you will be challenging for the title? i really dont know what to expect from your squad as i know little about the players.

    We are apparently signing Shwan Jalal on either Tuesday or Wednesday, depending on how quickly hes back in the area on his return from Iraq. He should be back by tonight.

    Predictions for 2016/17

    You are like the mother Hubbard of the league. You could assemble something decent from a single egg, some semi moldy cheese and out of date ham. I fully expect you to take a minimum of 4 points from us!

    £200,000 this first year i believe. We were promised that the budget would be 'ring fenced' this season so, unless thats changed, our budget should still be £665,000 this season for playing staff. The rent, we are told, shouldnt have an adverse effect on the first team budget this season. Going...
