Second in the National League South table with four wins from five games is the kind of start that all torquay -united-fc> Torquay United fans were dreaming of pre-season. Two wins over the Bank Holiday weekend doubled the Gulls’ points tally from six to 12 and they joined early leaders Slough Town in the top two, with both teams on the same number of points. But manager Paul Wotton is a one-game-at-a-time-man, so he said he wasn’t targeting six points from the games against Dorking Wanderers and Chesham United – more like three from each! Which, as it happens, is exactly what he got.

But Wotton says no team is going to be easy pickings this season, ahead of Saturday’s home game against Aveley, who have picked up just one point from their first five games. The manager said: “There’s no gimmes – Chesham will pick up lots and lots of points at home.
It’s a very difficult place to go. It’s one of those that you will look over the season and you will see other teams going there and not winning and you�.
