Torquay United set to visit Ray Mac with large following

Friday, 3 October 2025 05:55

Brian Dutton and his side welcome Torquay United to the Ray Mac this Saturday as the Whites return to National League South action.

The game promises to draw one of the largest attendances of the season, with Torquay fans regularly travelling in large numbers to away games, often taking as many as 1000 supporters on their travels.

The Gulls arrive unbeaten in their last three league games, having won their last two matches: first at home against Slough Town and then most recently against Ebbsfleet United.

Jordan Young scored the only goal of that match against Ebbsfleet United in the first half. Torquay boss described the win as "hard earned":

Torquay have had nearly two weeks without a fixture, having been eliminated from the FA Cup by AFC Totton in the 2nd Qualifying Round. In contrast, Salisbury have played two matches against Dorking Wanderers in that time, courtesy of the cup.

Salisbury first played out a 1-1 draw in the first match last Saturday, forcing the replay after Matt Briggs equalised just after half time to keep cup hopes alive.

Sadly, Dorking were just too much for Brian Dutton's side, winning the replay by four goals to two on Tuesday evening.

Brian Dutton and his side are still looking for their first league win of the season and find themselves second bottom, with five points from their first nine league fixtures.

Their most recent league fixture was a goalless draw against Eastbourne Borough, who sit rock bottom of the National League South table.
