Any Torquay Utd fans on Here

[foxes1]

Anyone have any idea what the 2 single sheet programmes which I have just got in a job lot of 60's progs are from. They are both Torquay Utd homes one against Chippenham dated 06/04/63 and the other against Bridport dated 28/04/62.
Think they could be reserve progs or psoosibly South Western Lge games but not sure.

Not the definitive answer but Torquay, Chippenham, Bridport and Portland United, who were originally shown on the Bridport programme, were all in the Western League that season.

Hi Foxes
I have asked the question for you to a friend that ran the Torquay programme shop for years. If anybody has the answer, it will be him.
Will let you know when he responds.

Torquay Utd 1st team played Away fixtures on:

5/4/63 at York City

28/4/62 at Newport County

The Torquay Utd Reserve XI played in the Western League and Home programmes from the relevant seasons show:

1962/63 Sat 6th April Chippenam Town

1961/62 Sat 28h April Bridport*

*the Portlanf game played on 31st March 1962.

Both sheets are for Western League fixtures.

Thanks for that thought they would be in one of the leagues down the south west.
