Stadium move for Torquay?

Torquay United are considering a move to an out of town stadium after the local council confirmed that Plainmoor was needed for housing.   Talks are taking place with an American firm that would see the company pay for a new 6,000 capacity home in exchange for the land.

Torquay were on the brink of closure last summer and are currently in the relegation positions in the National League.

Torquay were on the brink of closure last summer and are currently in the relegation positions in the National League.

The club had to make drastic cuts after lottery-winning former owner Thea Bristow left the club last summer, with a new board taking over the club and being forced to close the academy and slash the playing budget.
