Hello from Plainmoor where the latest edition of the Herald Express DevonLive Torquay United Yellow Army Podcast (to give it its full name!) was recorded this afternoon. After four points from the 2-2 home draw against Chelmsford City and the 1-0 win at Salisbury, the Gulls now have three home games on the trot with Tonbridge Angels coming to Plain…

After that performance at Hornchurch, we hope this halloween edition of the Torquay United Yellow Army Podcast won't give you nightmares as we pick apart what went wrong there. But there has been some positive news this week with the club signing forward Jordan Young from Yeovil Town for an undisclosed fee. He is sure to play a part when Torquay ta…

It's Podcast time people and this week Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes are musing over the business of the last seven days - and a 1-1 draw at Eastbourne Borough followed by a 2-1 win against Worthing. Wasn't it great to be back at Plainmoor after a 31-day absence - and there were two smashing goals by Omar Mussa and Jay Foulston to entertain the …

Hello out there - time for another Podcast from the Yellow Army guys and today Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes are joined by David Thomas for a chat in the car studio.

It's Podcast time again and Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes have much to discuss, and one thing we have learned this week is Paul Wotton loves a clean sheet. With Torquay having picked up one of them at Hampton & Richmond Borough on Saturday, the Gulls are now third in the National League South table. But we are now in a two-week break and the Poc…

It was a lovely day outside Plainmoor where the Podcasters Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes got together after a week off to go through the latest news from Plainmoor. After that 1-1 draw against St Albans City, Torquay were without a game last weekend, but that might have been a good thing, with a few injuries still in the squad. Manager Paul Wott…

It was terrible, it was embarrassing, it was down right anger inducing - but there must be a time when we draw a line under that FA Cup performance at Bishops Cleeve. That was the message from Torquay manager Paul Wotton today in his press conference, and we hear him talk about that game and Saturday's return to National League South action against…

This week's Podcast comes from the warm-car studio outside Plainmoor with Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes shambling through the news from Torquay United like two ex-pros on the Madri. There is that goal at Welling to talk about - or to be more precise, the goal that wasn't. Paul Wotton got an apology from the referee and the manager talks about th…

It's Podcast time again and the rain is back as Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes sit in the upgraded studio car on Marnham Road and talk about four points from two home games. There was that 'slightly disappointing' 1-1 draw against Aveley on Saturday but on Tuesday night Torquay were much better when they raced into a 3-0 lead to beat Chippenham T…

Here we are again - in the car studio outside Boots & Laces, talking about good old Torquay United.

There were 13 debuts on …

With the brand-new National League South season just days away, Paul Wotton held his first proper pre-match press conference today and the Yellow Army Podcast was there to record it for you.

It's election day so the Podcasters are hamstrung and must avoid talking about politics in this week's get together - so here's to another long chat about football and Torquay United for our discerning listeners.

Today the Podcasters Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes go through the questions and answers that featured in Richard's column in the Herald Express this week.

Happy Birthday Torquay United - 125 years old this week!

Hello again from Podcastland. This week Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes discuss what might be going on behind closed doors at Plainmoor - and why secrecy is a bad thing.

Was that the biggest game since 1987? It certainly felt like it. This week our podcasters are joined by special guest David Thomas, with Guy Henderson in the driving seat and Richard Hughes in the passenger seat of the hot mobile studio. On Tuesday night Torquay beat Taunton 2-1 to end fears that the club could drop into the Southern League - and n…

Sit back, relax, crack open a can of Elvis Juice, and listen to the latest edition of the Torquay United Yellow Army Podcast with Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes. We now know there is a preferred bidder, but who that is remains a mystery until they decide to out themselves. What we do know is the preferred bidders aren't Michael Westcott and TUST …

Bank Holiday Blues. As the Podcasters wait for news about bids being accepted or not, and possible administration, they sit in the car and chew the Bank Holiday fat. Two games and six goals conceded, but at least the one point won meant Torquay rose up the table one place, and went one point further clear of the relegation zone. But with two big aw…

So now we know who the people behind at least one consortium trying to buy Torquay United are - and this week the Podcasters, Richard Hughes and Guy Henderson, talk to Nick Brodrick of TUST about how the supporters' trust is also involved in the bid.

And then superfan Hayden Jones chat…

Hello again - and this week the Podcasters are back sitting in Marnham Road, in a car under the blue plaque tribute to Peter Cook. Imagine what he would have made of what's going on at Plainmoor right now... The club has been given another two weeks to sort out a sale before the threat of administration rears its ugly head again - so it is going to…

Some good news from the club today as Aaron Downes reveals the players have been paid - although Richard Hughes can't quite get his tongue around that sentence in today's Yellow Army Podcast chat with Guy Henderson. It has been quite a week in the life of Torquay United, with Clarke Osbourne walking away last Thursday and manager Gary Johnson follo…

Yesterday was a shocking day for all Torquay United fans, whether they wanted Clarke Osborne out, Gary Johnson out, or not.

The pod was recorded and edited and uploaded, and was just about to be put on DevonLive when the news …

Here were are again, the Podcasters sitting at Guy Henderson's table talking about a club going through some difficult times, on and off the pitch.

It has been a pretty rough week for Gulls fans after that fourth defeat on the trot against Slough Town.

Torquay boss Gary Johnson also talks about the Slough defeat, the postponement at Taunton Town…

After a break for a week, it is good to be back - but there's no getting away from it, and Gary Johnson doesn't in his interview this week, Saturday’s showing against St Albans City was one of the worst performances by a Torquay United side for some considerable time. So there is much to discuss as Richard Hughes and Guy Henderson sit in a car outs…

This week's Torquay United Yellow Army Podcast is a bit all over the place with Guy Henderson unable to attend the 12.30pm press call with Gary Johnson, so recording the chat-bit with Richard Hughes before that happened. Which means, when the Podcasters go over the Gary they come back from the other side without knowing what he said. Only after Ric…

The Podcasters are a day late this week so apologies to the Yellow Army for that - but there is much to discuss so Richard Hughes and Guy Henderson hunker down and talk all things Torquay United. Where to start? Oh, that horrible show at Hereford where Torquay were poor and tempers' flared in the away end. Out the Trophy then - is that a good or a …

The Podcasters Richard Hughes and Guy Henderson take their usual sideways look at what is going on at Torquay United, where injuries are biting as much as the cold at the training ground. We hear from Gary Johnson, who was keen to talk about the injured players - some of whom might be back for the next National League South game against Dover Athle…

Happy New Year and International Pat Cruise Week Torquay fans. Out with the old, in with the new. Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes have an early start for this week's first Yellow Army Pod of 2024 - and there is lots to discuss.

This week, Radio Yellow Army Podcast talks about The Young Ones. No, not the early 1980s TV show, but the late 2023 Torquay United FA Trophy selection. Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes are veritable old men compared to the likes of Jacob Wellington & Co after the average age of the players involved in the 4-1 win at Frome Town was 20! We hear from …

Richard Hughes and Guy Henderson are separated today for the latest edition of the Torquay United Yellow Army Podcast. It has been one of those weeks when there is plenty to discuss - what with the fans' protest at the game against Tonbridge Angels, three wins on the trot - and the injury crisis of all injury crises. Guy was at the weekly press con…

What a wonderful Tuesday night we all had, watching or listening to the Gulls destroying Eastbourne Borough with four great goals, all from outside of the area. Just as well, as the previous Saturday, Torquay were woeful at Dartford. So that gives the Podcasters much to discuss this week already - but there is the little matter of an interview with…

In this week's Podcast, Richard Hughes is joined in the car, parked in Marnham Road, by David Thomas - and they talk through the last week's events at Torquay United.

This week the Podcasters are in a dry Paignton studio while the wind and rain batters South Devon. Guy Henderson and Richard Hughes talk about that win at Havant & Waterlooville, and the antics of a certain third goalie there. An instant Torquay legend, some might say. And then the attention turns to this weekend's game against Yeovil Town in the F…

Hello from a rainy day in Torquay where Richard Hughes was joined by David Thomas this week to pick through the bones of another frustrating defeat. After that satisfying win against Bath, Tuesday night's 3-1 loss to Yeovil was a real low blow.
