Hopefully you will bring a few more TISA boys with you as I cannot see there being more than 250 there tonight?

There are a few making a effort tonight.

After comments on facebook from OSC members , about the atmosphere at Treyew Rd,I wonder why I am bothering TBH.

They just cannot be quiet,always poking the stick into the hornets nest.

When the conducter waves his stick,the orchestra plays the tune.

While they were busy doing that,TISA was raising money for Charity.

Ignore them SS, though I appreciate with the past history that may be hard to do, and stick to doing what you do best, supporting the team on the pitch, though sometimes that is difficult to do, it works both ways?

Still we live in hope for the performance and three points tonight to send us home happy for a change, fingers crossed Yetti is given his chance tonight and he can do what Watto is still doing for Bath.

So you had better go on Saturday as I think it will be a much tougher test, thought we played ok tonight, so much better when we keep it on the deck and play football. 

Glad Lee saw sense and brought Pughie back in, and what did people make of Yetti, a little rusty due to lack of game time at Weymouth, but the instincts are still there and his infectious enthusiasm can only be good for the team. Give him game time and I'm sure the goals will come.

TCFC can only beat what is in front of them.

Some are saying it was a great performance.??????????????????????. I say its all about winning games now.Another 3 wins for safety,I think.

Gosport are a very poor side,who will be relegated,so as you quoted a more difficult game awaits on Saturday against St Albans.

Im afraid I will not be there,European football at Wembley with the Spurs,and a few days away.

Pretty football doesn't always win matches sometimes it has to be ugly teamed with pure heart and determination survival of the fittest ugly and 3 points is better than pretty with 0 points

So we will know who to blame should we lose on Saturday! I wouldn't say it was a great performance but a step in the right direction and I believe we will be in with a chance if we play similar on Saturday.

@somersetspur what did you make of Tyler Harvey? I was unaware that he was now at Truro! 

We had him at Wrexham at the start of the season and I was gutted we let him go. Didn't settle in the area but could tell he had glimpses of league quality in him. 

I thought he went on to Bath?

First time I seen him was after he returned from Hartlepool ,playing for their Reserves,was away at Bath a couple of weeks ago.

To be fair he had a right mare,but he was'nt the only one.

Did,nt go to the game last Saturday,but he scored in a 2-1 defeat.

He scored both goals , last night.

From what I have seen,he has got to do a lot more,to convince me,he is League standard.

I was surprised at the attendance figure. It wasn't a bad performance by Truro on Tuesday night. They just made too many wrong decisions when in possession of the ball. The fact they couldn't string that many passes together before losing it annoyed me. There were some players who I thought played very well. The most notable for me were Connor Riley-Lowe, Aaron Bentley and Tyler Harvey. I thought the latter was the best player on the pitch by a mile.
