Torquay food and match thread

Saying that fish n chips is just what it says on the tin and doesn't really matter where they are from , is simply wrong angrybloke.

Listening to a crappy friendly on Argyle World, whilst consuming frozen Youngs fish n chips, is about as basic as it gets.

You need to get out more and broaden your horizons.

First time the family will have watch the team this season, looking forward to see the new players and put a little bit of money into Torquay coffers.

i used to like watching the odd game at Torquay when i lived there.
A great little club and a great pub by the ground (The Union) which was run by a Brizzle Rovers supporter.

Go to Hanburys first, TG. If the queue is too big, then Drakes on the main rd is still very good. Spent many a summer evening up on Babbacombe Downs with fish n chips. It's the only part of Torbay that seems to be a relatively Scouser-free zone!

Used to like going this fixture each pre season we used to make a long day of it used to use the boozer by the clock tower just up the hill a bit from witherspoons but cant remember the name of the pub now

No room for sympathy or favours. The fact that our country is broke and yet our government continue to send cash to all and sundry does not mean our footy club should do the same. IF our club had spare cash then there are far better ways of using it. Bus shelters in Swilly come to mind.

Congratulations thats probably the most ignorant thing I'll read on here all day. 1. The country isnt broke, not even close. 2 It doesnt send cash to 'all and sundry' you'll need to explain that bit better. 3 It was a decent act by Exeter, the fact that there is bugger all chance of us doing the same is irrelavant.

George Osborne as Chancellor has borrowed more money than every other Chancellor ever added together (that's a fact not an opinion) so if we aren't yet broke we soon will be (that's an opinion not a fact).

BTW Drake's, obvs.

It's been very peaceful here lately with the political agitators taking a very welcome summer break(that's a fact, not an opinion). It's been a breath of fresh air(that's an opinion, not a fact)

Don't blame me.

1) I didn't vote for the cnuts.
2) Tiger Tony started it.

Is the same battered fish and chips meal at the end of the day whether you buy yours from one shop or the other.

Osbourne has had to borrow mahoosively largely due to Gordon Browns fuckwittery. But that's enough dull political talk.

Drakes over Hanburys Franny? I see the obvious link, but on quality of product, I'll raise you an eyebrow...

Saying that one fish and chip shop's fayre is of the same standard as any other, is a bit like saying that watching Argiggle is the same experience as Arsenal at the Emirates, if you want to enjoy a feast of football.

...oh, and Angry obviously has a palate like a cows arse.

According to @TUFC1899 kick-off against @Only1Argyle tonight is 7.45pm, not 7.30pm

I was guessing to be honest never having sampled either.

As for Gordon Brown... Every spending plan he had was supported by Osborne and Cameron in opposition. Labour, according to every significant financial institution from the IMF all the way through to the BofE, did not overspend relative to the economy at the time. There was a lack of regulation in GB's "light touch" world which was simply a continuation of Thatcher's Big Bang and had been followed in essence by every Chancellor up to that point - although to be fair Cameron and Osborne actively campaigned for less regulation.

What actually happened was that income collapsed due to the world wide financial horlicks which originated in the US sub-prime market under free marketeer GB Jnr who was forced to nationalise the entire US car industry to prevent that going tits up as well. GB did not crash Lehmans, Iceland, AIG, Northern Rock, HBoS, Freddy Mac, Fanny Mae or any of the others that went tits up. It's plain misleading to suggest he did.

The truth is that austerity is self-defeating and that cutting public expenditure when the private sector is so weak is a cast-iron recipe for economic disaster. Enter Osborne and his lamentable long term economic plan. We are into the second term of a government that is politically very astute but in terms of economics barely literate.

Still as I said earlier don't blame me - I didn't vote for any of the governments concerned.

I'm looking forward to the brief synopsis on the fish and chip situation T&G, be sure to keep us posted.

garlic mato with chips is the best
