The amazing pop-side definitely influenced the outcome of the match with the red card for their No. 9 – even Gary Johnson acknowledged that at the end when he cheekily brandished a card from his pocket and pointed to us. Bloody hilarious #tufc

Gary starts his new job:
Secretary: Good morning Mr Owers, welcome to your new office, are you happy with everything?"
Gary: Aye pet, champion
Secretary: Can I get you a tea or coffee?
Gary: NO! GOD NO! *sobs in geordie*#tufc

In May 1987 Torquay United produced an extraordinary great escape to stay in the Football League.

APRIL
In scoring a last minute cracker for the mighty Yellows, Ben Wynter has played out the dream I've had since I was a 10 year old running up the pop-side stairs for the 1st time. Following your team is about never letting that 10 year old lad down. Keeping the dream alive.

Gary Johnson has just won a 42-match-per-season division in 30 matches.

We were all hoping that @RuairiKeating would start singing boyzone, what we got was a millions time better.
Statue of the man outside the Pop immediately please.

Messi still watches videos of Reidy vs Concord every night before bed. Rumour has it Jake Andrews taught him how to take free kicks too pic.twitter.com/N0P85QNEkO

Just to confirm for everyone, this is Ryan’s post.
I signed us Matt Rhead and he bludgeoned us towards the Championship before his hairline caught up with him. #tufc #fm19

Does anyone else still think about Woking (a) every single day? #tufc

NOVEMBER
"No team has scored more goals anywhere in English football" – What a time to be alive – and a Gulls fan! #tufc https://t.co/jV4ZctQheh
— Guy Henderson (@GuyHExpress) November 4, 2019
Entertaining scenes: Olaf takes on shot from narrow angle as Manny calls: "cut back, cut back". Keeper parries into Manny's path and shouts: "fuck off" thinking a goal was imminent. But the Dutchman can't get it out of his feet. Elmore hit bar! They've deserved one. 0-4 #tufc
— ByeHorse (@Byehorse) November 19, 2019
People laugh when I say Jamie Reid should be called up, but who else have Northern Ireland got? Grigg is out of form, Lafferty is past it, Washington and Magennis aren't goalscorers. You put a guy like Reidy in front of a playmaker like Steven Davis and you have a genuine possibi https://t.co/YwYSnjlg2N
