Havent a clue what team/formation Bucks is going to come up with, probably who is fit come lunchtime. Will certainly be the lowest crowd yet and about 170 Grimsby fans making the crowd just over 2500.
I can see it being another frustrating game again but this time a last minute Ellis equaliser, cue celebrations and Ellis dropped next week ;D

Glorious day over by the River Teign - ideal conditions for football (if it doesn't get too hot!!).
I suspect that Bucks will start with:
Poke
Carlisle Robbo Todd Nicholson
Williams Wroe Hargreaves Stevens
Sills Benyon
I would be very surprised if Mills starts today - less so if Rendell does.
It's going to be a tight game, even if Grimsby have a few players out - I can only hope that we halt the run of poor form as this result will imapact on morale either way more than most other matches this season. A win and things will appear more positive but a defeat will really start many fans getting the knives out..... That set's it up nicely for a draw!!
I would be happy to get 2,700 on the gate today.

After a very busy morning, making two new boards and banners etc, its time I went and had a shower and got dressed  What ever the result, I'm going to Plainmoor to enjoy myself today and say hello to as many TFF members as I can. I would love nothing more than to come home and write a glowing match report about todays game, we will have to wait and see just how todays game effects the mood of the forum later. A good win and all will not look so bad, a defeat and we may just see posts asking more deeper questions. remember its only a game and our lives do not depend on the result, its early days in our season, so get along to Plainmoor and play your part to lift our team to victory. |

If we are looking for an omen, we need not look no further than the fact Lewis our lucky mascot will be at todays game. Not wishing to put any pressure on the young man, but he has yet to see TUFC lose a game.
Heres hoping our Lewis can make the difference again today, I hope Merse will be around this afternoon and do the fine job he does keeping the matchday thread updated.
Time to get moving and make my way over to Torquay, fingers and everything else is crossed, its down to the players now to go and win the match, any which way they can.

Stevens starts on right, Williams left. Ellis back on the left of Todd. Carlisle on bench and the Mansell fitness problems carry on which is a bit worrying to me.

Well harsh or not, that's the team. Sounds like lots of football being played with no cutting edge as yet. I'm hungry so going to queue up for a burger!

Now we come to the real excitement, will Beeb Devon manage to return to Plainmoor or will we get some dozy old cruddock droning on about rugby?

two midfielders as full-backs - I'm confused - didn't see that coming and if it doesn't work, I'd like to say WTF!
