TALKING POINTS

BEST PERFORMANCE OF THE SEASON SO FAR

Despite picking up points of late our performances have been nothing short of dire, however the same can’t be said for this game and I think based on our performance against a very well organised team in Farnborough we deserved the 3 points and arguably it was our best game from Torquay so far this season (Long may it continue!).

JARVIS AND ASH

Jarvo and Ash both hitting the target was brilliant to see. That now moves them both on to 4 goals for the season, who will win the battle for the most goals come the end of the season between them both? I can’t wait for this partnership to really hit the highs we all believe it can hit. Opposition defences watch out!

BRETT MCGAVIN

Brett has received a lot of negative feedback at Torquay due to his poor displays on the pitch, with many even shocked he started against Farnborough. I thought he did very well, he kept it simple at times and had a very assured game probably one of his better performances in a Torquay United shirt. Let’s hope Brett can use this game as a springboard and build from the display in the coming games.

REACTION FROM THE AVELEY DEFEAT

In what was a very poor showing from the Gulls against Aveley, we desperately needed a positive reaction from the team against Farnborough and I think we definitely got that didn’t we? It wasn’t pretty at times but I do think we saw a different Torquay United, a different approach and it paid off. I think it’s safe to say Gary Johnson needed that win to take some pressure off his shoulders didn’t he? Lastly, let’s keep the momentum going now as we move onto Chelmsford City at home.
