I know we've discussed the derelict Grandstand that was just about still standing when Stefano and co played for Spurs in the South Western League.
I found a nice pic of it in its prime - the Devon Senior Cup (with funny shaped balls) Final 1922 Brixham v Torquay Athletic.
The big match may have dented the attendance at the big match at Plainmoor - Devon v Wiltshire. Nice to know that our member of parliament knew what shape a football should be.
No TUFC players in the Devon team, but two players - goalie Waller and left winger Mills - were amongst the Green Waves players borrowed to fulfil a Western League fixture at Weymouth whilst our first team played in the Devon Senior Cup (with round balls) Final 1922 Oreston Rovers v Torquay United at Home Park two weeks later.
Right back Fred Rice of RN Barracks signed for us at the end of the season and went on to be a virtual ever-present in our five seasons as a Southern League club.
