Gary Johnson

New Torquay Manager, good appointment by the gulls for a change!

He was a perennial name in the frame for us a few times wasn't he. Around the time of the first coming of Paul Stuurock iirc was the first time.

On a bit of a downward spiral now and probably past his best-before date but, yes, a great choice for the Gulls.

Excellent news indeed, am a fan of Gary Johnson, sure he can change things positively, Gary Owers did his best but his best wasn't good enough, losing at home to Chippenham was a new low for the Gulls.

Good appo.

Met him once miserable cnut, did well at Yeovil tho, should be good for the turks

He was interviewed after Sturrock left for the first time but appaza Bobby Williamson either gave a shit hot interview or Stapleton did what Paul Sturrock told him to do as he liked to do. Johnson went on to do amazingly well at Bristol City almost taking them to the Premier League and Argyle once again at Pivotal moment in their history took entirely the wrong decision.

Absolutely and when Gary left Brizzle City there was another opportunity to get him but no not to be.
Anyway glad he has pitched up at the Gulls.

Hope he does ok for them. But my realist side says that he may be a little bit shot, a la Luggy.

Time will tell I guess

Does a good job getting the best out of players with limited ability.

If he'd waited a month................?

Its a good appointment for them. If he gets the backing there is no reason at all why Torquay wont be back in the football league before too long.
