With The Gulls returning home to take on Tonbridge Angels tomorrow, another intriguing afternoon of National League South action is in store at Plainmoor, as Paul Wotton’s side continue their bid to chase down the early season pacesetters, with just three points currently separating fourth-placed United from top spot.
With another bumper crowd anticipated, here’s all the information you need in preparation of your visit to the stadium tomorrow.

By Car: The South Devon Link Road runs from Newton Abbot to Torquay, and allows quick access for home and away fans.

United In Remembrance
Ahead of kick-off on Saturday, Torquay United FC will be paying its respects to those that paid the ultimate price for us all.
With our match against Tonbridge Angels being the last one played at Plainmoor prior to Remembrance Day taking place on Monday 11th November, we will therefore be observing a period of silence prior to kick-off on Saturday in order to salute the fallen.
Supporters will be given the opportunity to purchase a poppy or badges via the Club Shop prior to kick-off, and also make personal donations to the Legion inside the stadium, with representatives from the RBL located around the ground.
With our pre-match tribute beginning from 2.50pm, supporters are kindly requested to take their places inside the stadium by this time, in order to allow time for both staff and supporters the opportunity to join together to pay their respects.

In addition to our main shop, our kiosk will also be open for business inside the stadium between the Family Stand & Bristow’s Bench entrance.
Live Music At Plainmoor
The recent addition of post-match live music in The Gull’s Nest and Boots & Laces has already proven to be a big hit with the Yellow Army so far this season, and this Saturday, there will be another double-bill of top-class live acts making their way to Plainmoor!
Shortly after the full-time whistle, supporters will be treated to the sounds of Yonder Folk in the Gull’s Nest between 5pm-7pm, before the live music continues downstairs with Emma Pick returning to Boots & Laces between 7pm-9pm!
Food & Drink Facilities
Snack kiosks for home supporters are located between the JMV Family Stand and Bristow’s Bench and in the Popside well, whilst away fans will be catered for by the Snack kiosk located behind the Wollens Away Terrace.
