A bit of a damp squib game and atmosphere today.  We played well and got the result without even having to get out of 2nd gear. We were quite wasteful in front of goal and in possession and could have had a lot more than 3.

MoM, difficult one but I'd go for RHJ.

Are we any closer to getting promoted since Hurst has been here? No

Has he been given time to achieve promotion by the chairman and fans? Yes

To be fair, MoM was difficult as  so many had a good game today. RHJ probably just edged it but nobody had a bad game. Thought the passing and movement today was superb at times. The atmosphere was non existent from the home end but I thought we were quite vocal throughout.  A good confident performance today. Personally I enjoyed it. The future is bright.

I don't disagree with too much and I realise my comments come across as really negative I agree that some of the play was excellent, I just think we should have put them to bed long before we did and I wanted more from the team.  We were very vocal in parts.

To comfortably win without having to get out of second gear is the sign of a strong team. No negative spin on that for me.

Back at our hotel after what was a fairly comfortable win.  We shuld have won by more, however Macca made 2 or 3 good stops.  The 3-5-2 worked a treat today and Hendrie i thought was excellent and my Man of the match, just ahead of RHJ, but all did well in a real team performance.
Thought the locals were welcoming and our away support amazing given how long a trip it is here.
Our passing was good and i liked our pressing.
Kristian Dennis looked good when he came on and took his goal well.
Something is happening here guys - we are starting to look like a solid team and have lots of options now that we almost have a fully fit squad.
On to Cheltenham at BP and if we can win that, Swindon away should have a decent away following the week after.  Onwards and upwards.

I just hope in the close season we keep the likes of RHJ, Whitmore, Davis and either Dennis or Thomas

Then again I thought Jolley did a great job in the Jan window so who knows what this summer could bring.

Back in Torquay.. easy win really over a poor side. They huffed and puffed but although Macca had to make a couple of saves they never were going to win this. We dominated and played some lovely triangles but it was a bit  tedious at times. Really won at a stroll against a poor foundering team in a craphole stadium. The only noise I heard from home support was after they scored and asking for their manager to leave

I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see us sign Dennis and I expect MJ could already be doing something in the background re a contract for him as I think we'll lose Wes in the summer, and if I'm honest, as a pure striker I rate Dennis.

It was a great finish, but I think what was more impressive was the timing of the run and first touch. To have that much time and space whilst remaining onside is a sign of real quality.

Ask yourself why did MJ sign Dennis? When no doubt he does not come cheap is stories about his Notts County salary are to be believed.

Why spend a good chunk of the budget if you didn't think you could get him permanently? ............... Or was it just that he'd contribute to a lat play off surge?

If you can win a race in third gear then why go into fourth?

I got over Podge when he turned down an 18 month contract and gambled on something better.

Is Dennis the final piece of the GTFC jigsaw?

We missed some good chances yesterday which a goalscorer like Dennis would have put away.

You can have loan agreements with clauses for first choice at signing the player in the next tranfer window. I wonder if that is the case here?

Wonder if it was the plan to have him starting as sub or if the team finding a bit of confidence in front of the goal has pushed him back a bit.

Absolutely love that we've had two own goals now, means we're finally pinging in dangerous balls that are giving the defenders too much to think about.

If Notts County had any sense they won’t have. This is their chance to plonk him in the shop window and get some of the fee back they paid for

Agree with this, oddly enough the more he scores the less likely he’d possibly be to stay.

Doesn't the player get a say, if we match his current wage and agree a fee with a County I would have thought he would rather be here then in the conference with them.

In the 10 minute highlights in the second half we attacked with 4 players in on goal but one Yeovil player blocked the pass, could have scored many yesterday
