	Internet Football Ground Guide - Fans Review, Plainmoor, Torquay United FC
		Although it was still early in the morning and the majority of the near sell-out crowd were yet to converge on the ground, I got the feeling that the pace of life around the ground - and the town itself - is very laid back and friendly.
		Plainmoor was originally scheduled as my final destination in completing the 92 but ongoing construction work at numerous other grounds saw me re-think my plans.
		Plainmoor is a wonderful setting and the long drive was worth it.

		The site at Plainmoor, which is in fact located within a stones throw of the seafront in the beautiful little village suburb of Babbacombe, was purchased by the Council from the Cary Estate for a healthy sum of £5,000.
		That figure was set to avoid Plainmoor falling within the remits of the Saefty at Sports Grounds Act, which, after the Bradford fire, it was thought might be extended to apply to all grounds with a capacity of 5,000 or more.
		In the same year United began the upgrade of Plainmoor with, at the cost of £890,000, the Club constructed a new, single-tier seated stand at the Ellacombe End.

		The Gulls fielding both new signings Gregory Goodridge and Jason Fowler once more failed to put their chances away and were made to pay when a rare Kevin Dearden mistake after 72 minutes resulted in Richard Lambert's match winning second goal for The Silkmen.
