Cannot honestly remember but don't remember celebrating so guess not. Why was it they always used to have late K O's?

Quoted from Magsinrio
I remember in about 1977 when 15 years old  hitchhiking into Grimsby from Caistor one Saturday morning. On the way back got a lift with three town fans going to Torquay away. In the short journey they persuaded me to go, waited whilst I ran in and told my mother I had met some people I knew from the football and persuaded her to lend me some money and let me go with them ( I had never met any of them before).
We blatted down their, got their late and then after my first visit to a nightclub slept in the car. On the way back as we approached Lincoln they told me they had to go and visit their mate in Prison. At that point I suddenly hoped I got home safely!


Those were the days.

Never been to Torquay and one of the many grounds I would like to tick off, currently on a shutdown at work.
Could be worse, could travel down all the way to Plymouth only for the game to get abandoned due to a loose corrigated sheeting

I'm still surprised that the game hasn't been switched to a 3am start on a Thursday morning on the advice of local police.  Nice weekend location though - just a loooooong way!!

Torquay looking and sounding like a beer desert. If you're going by train sounds like it's welll worth stopping off at Newton Abbott. Tuckers maltings, Teign Cellars & Ye Olde Cider Bar (great place that) have all been recommended by ale aficionados
