Torquay - MATCH THREAD
« on: October 27, 2015, 07:31:00 AM »
Time to put the FA Cup in a box until Sunday. Saturday is by far and away the biggest match of the season to date. Despite last weeks unlikely hammering at previously winless Basingstoke, Torquay had picked up in recent weeks before last week. After fluffing our lines to be well clear against Halifax and Kidderminster we have a real chance to put breathing space between ourselves and the bottom four. A win would put us 7 points ahead of Torquay a defeat would leave them right on our tail. They'll want a reaction after Saturday so we must be at our very best.

Hopefully crowther back in contention and also ranks with a bit of luck. Do we know if parry has gone back now?

Agree let's no lose focus on this.

Believe Parry is going for a scan so can't see a decision on him will be taken until results are known.

Desperately need Crowther back.  Should Rankine be fit then LS has a big decision as to formation and selection.

Isn't Rankine meant to be out for some time ?Is Densmore far off a return ?

The word after Chester game was he's about a fortnight away, with a hamstring problem. Dens roughly twice as long.

In which case we don't rush him back. If he's not 100% don't play him on Saturday. We'll desperately need his physicality against Barnsley.

Good to see Ryan back in contention, they've a couple back that were missing last week. Their league form had taken a bit of an upturn prior to last Saturday's cup hammering

Torquay have taken more points (five) from their last three league fixtures than Alty have managed to gain (two) during theirs.

I hope that the significance of Saturday's game won't get lost amidst all the Barnsley palaver.
