Located in the sunny resort of Torbay ,Devon. The gulls often see teams coming to stay for the weekend. Because of this, Torquay United AFC have been acknowledged as one of Devons Key tourist attractions. It's friendly atmosphere and warm hospitality see's clubs promoting the gulls and the team is highley regarded as one of the friendliest teams in the BSPL. Now for the Wikipedia: Torquay United Football Club, nicknamed the Gulls, is an English association football club based in the seaside resort town of Torquay, Devon. They will begin the 2007-08 season in the Conference National having lost their league status at the end of the 2006-2007 season. Founded in 1899, they joined the Football League in 1927 and spent their entire time in the Football League in the lower divisions. The club plays in a distinctive yellow and navy strip. Torquay United prided themselves on being one of the few clubs in the lower English football leagues to remain debt-free despite the debacle of the ITV Digital collapse. 'Penny-wise and pound-foolish' was an oft-repeated observation of things at Plainmoor, particularly under the chairmanship of Mike Bateson. Torquay's traditional rivals are fellow Devon clubs Plymouth Argyle and Exeter City. However the latter has always been the fiercer rivalry as Argyle have tended to be in a higher division throughout their history and so the two teams rarely meet. There is also an element of Argyle fans who admit to a soft spot for the Gulls (much like the larger London teams are always happy for the likes of Barnet, who have never played in the top flight, to have a small degree of success). |
