Back in the late 1950s did Torquay United play an overseas team at Plainmoor, possibly from Portugal. If so, does anyone out there have any information in this game please? |

Looking through my extensive records of Torquay United friendlies played at Plainmoor, the only overseas teams that graced Plainmoor during the period that you are interested in were :-
[b]1953-54 v Trinidad 19th September 1953 score I do not have and after that
1967-68 v O.I.S (Sweden) 13th March 1968 score 2-2.
Of course there may be other games that I am not aware of, but I hope that this helps in some way.
Added in 1946-47 v Malinois (France) Bert Head Testimonial 26th April 1947.[/b] |

I am sure fellow friends on here, the likes of grumpypants or even pafcprogs may well be able to give you a definitive answer.
I know it is not what you are asking but just in case you are a decade out .. There was a Bert head testimonial at Plainmoor against French side.. Malinois on Saturday 26th April 1947. This takes pride of place as the earliest programme I have in my TUFC collection.
If this is not the answer you seek, failing grumpypants and pafcprogs, I will try and find out for you.
