Firstly a very big thank you to Leigh for all the very hard work he has put in this season to make our very own pages in the match day programme such a big success. I know there has been nights when he has been working on our pages in the wee small hours, just to make sure we have got the pages in on time. The work to produce four pages was enormous and once again Leigh has done such a wonderful job and I'm sure you all will agree with me that we have been so Lucky to find such a good man who has shown such great support for the TFF and done such a fabulous job on behalf of the TFF. The season is over, but the forum never closes and I hope you all will continue to keep it busy over the summer months, next season we all also be adding more from our history room along with our two regular pages, so I hope we will see some great new content added in the history room and also in other Torquay Untied related boards. Thanks everyone for your support as well on the TFF, we are a very good bunch together on here and together we have made this a great forum. Dave

Unfortunately the clean-sheet paragraph didn't print as sent (so made me look a bit silly.... really!)
The subtle change from four minutes to twenty-two was lost as they took out part of it. Note the change. Should read as follows:
‘My Beautiful Launderette’ The Unknown Record of the Clean-Sheet
We are only five minutes away from achieving a new club clean-sheet record that was set two seasons ago when we were playing in the Blue Square Premier and which stands at 605 minutes. We have not conceded a goal since we beat Shrewsbury by two goals to one at Plainmoor on the 3rd of April so that's 601 minutes since we last had a goal scored against us. (Dave)
Will be the most nerve-racking four minutes of the season then? (Budleigh)
But what about the McFarland team of 2002? By my reckoning they got to about six hundred and twenty-two minutes, 90 less the 53 when the goal was scored in the first game of the run, (leaving 37 minutes); plus the clean-sheet games, so 6 x 90 minutes, (adding another 540 minutes); plus 45 before the next goal was scored against us in the last game. So surely we need another 22 minutes to beat that, don't we? (Jon)
Will be the most nerve-racking twenty-two minutes of the season then? (Budleigh)

Another fine piece there Budleigh - a fitting end-of-season effort epic! I've really enjoyed leafing through these through the whole season - I haven't been a regular programme buyer for some time - but this along with the huge overall in quality all-round has seen me return.
