Played well at times...absolutely peppered their goal in the last 5 minutes...but,as you say, another loss. Goodwin played well.

Don’t think Oldham will be in the bottom 4 as they have signed three strikers Reid and some guy from Scunthorpe and a guy on loan from Walsall.

Another frustrating performance. For the first 15 minutes of the second half we looked like Brazil circa 1970. Then we looked like Torquay. No protection for the back 4. Defensive midfielders needed urgently.

…. we looked like Brazil circa 1970. Our performances are very similar to those of Brazil’s 1970 World Cup team. But you have to remember that they are all about 80 nowadays, so they have an excuse.

Some years ago there was a signal from space, which was noticed by someone on a Settee!
When the signal was spotted on the printout, the someone put the word ‘Wow’ next to it.
This moment in history has now been challenged by Jon’s post above 👆 a post so good, that even I would be proud of it!
I need to go and lie down in a darkened room for a while! 🕰️

I can understand what happened on Sunday has affected all members, and it will be a considerable time before everyone recovers. I of course am not referring to the match, but Jon telling a joke!
We have to move on though, and look on the bright side of things (I’m back to the football now) and realise that when we are on the tele, there are always lots of goals…sadly, the majority are agin us! 🧌

Yes but at least there were more Torquay players on the score sheet than Oldham"s.
