Any true Weymouth fan will be up in arms at the thought of Dorchester buying promotion Milton Keynes style. I'm sure that the hardcore would rather see Weymouth sink down the pyramid and start in the Dorset League. The floaters will give up either way. Torquay Town in the SW Peninsula League - yes. Exeter United in the Premier League - no way. Am I not right in thinking that if 2 teams merge the new team has to start in the division in which the lower team plied their trade? As for the original question. No not in a million years!!! A reformed AFCTUFC in the local leagues for me! Actually during the Roberts catastrophe me and my brother did discuss who we would support should TUFC cease to exist. We settled on Bristol Rovers!! Only a couple of hours up the motorway! (Had to be Rovers instead of City just because we are so used to supporting the underdog!!)

Absolutely not!!!! What colour would they play in? I don't even like it when England play in red. The very thought of it gives me the shivers.
Dave, behave mate, how could you even suggest such a nightmare? If this situ ever arose i would stop following football.

Red is supposed to be a lucky colour, which is why Tiger Woods always wears red on the final day of a golf tournament he plays in. I'm not sure what a Red & Yellow kit would look like, but one can assume it would NOT look good. Perhaps Red & Yellow Quarters, like the Bristol Rovers style, but in Red & Yellow

Dave its not a suggestion, or anything I would ever want to happen, its only aim is to ask our members given the worst case scenario, that our club would be lost forever, unless it merged with Exeter, just how they would feel about it. There has been so interesting view points and I can't imagine life without TUFC, so my view was that if that was the only way to keep the club alive, I think I would take it.
