Blues celebrate survival

Wycombe beat already-relegated Torquay 3-0 to secure their Football League status.The Blues got off to a perfect start when Sam Wood fired them 1-0 up in the fifth minute following Matt Bloomfield's deep cross from the right.Wood missed his first attempt but managed to steady himself and rifled the ball in at the second attempt from six yards.Wanderers surged further ahead from Steve Craig's 41st minute penalty after Anthony O'Connor fouled Matt McClure after the striker won the ball from Torquay player of the season Krystian Pearce.McClure lobbed Torquay goalkeeper Martin Rice on 61 minutes to make it 3-0, 10 minutes after O'Connor was red carded for a second bookable offence for a foul on McClure.Wood had a superb game for Wanderers. In the 10th minute he cleared Pearce's reaction shot off the goal-line after the United central defender's downward header came back off the post.Craig's cool penalty conversion atoned for a 24th minute miss after Wood's thumping out-of-the-blue 25 yard volley flew back off the post. With keeper Rice still on the floor, Craig fired wide of the unguarded goal.Wood came to the fore again when he cleared from United striker Elliot Benyon as the Torquay forward swooped to latch on to Courtney Cameron's cross from the left.

Gulls relegated despite win

Torquay were relegated into the Skrill Premier despite a 3-1 victory at Mansfield as rivals Northampton and Bristol Rovers both won.It ends a five-year stay back in the Football League after a two-year drop to the Conference in 2007.Despite Mansfield having most of the first-half play and more of the chances, they found themselves 2-0 down and reduced to 10 men by half-time.Oliver Palmer, John Dempster and Matt Rhead all failed to beat Martin Rice with good headed chances.Dempster had inadvertently set the Gulls on their way as he put Baily Cargill's left-wing cross past his own goalkeeper at the near post on 13 minutes.It was 2-0 just after the half-hour mark as Courtney Cameron sent over a great cross from the left and, although keeper Lewis Price made a superb save to deny Ashley Yeoman from point-blank range, Yeoman beat him with the follow-up.Stags' task was made even harder on 44 minutes when Rhead was sent off for sliding in late and catching Dale Tonge with his studs.But Stags pulled one back immediately after the break as James Jennings headed a Chris Clements corner goalwards with Damon Lathrope getting a touch on it but unable to prevent it going in.On 61 minutes Price turned Cameron's finish over the crossbar, after he had been sent through one-on-one.Then Krystian Pearce wasted a golden chance as he fired over unchallenged from six yards from a corner.But Shaquile Coulthirst sealed what proved to be a hollow win with a powerful close-range header from a Jordan Chapell cross from the right with 12 minutes left.

Gulls keep survival hopes alive

Torquay live to fight another day after coming from behind to beat relegation rivals Exeter 2-1 at St James' Park.Anything but a victory would have seen the Gulls drop back down to the Conference and things did not look good for them after Scot Bennett put Exeter ahead.But quickfire goals from Courtney Cameron and substitute Ashley Yeoman at the start of the second half turned the game on its head and kept Torquay's survival hopes alive.In a nervy and scrappy first half there were few chances for either side but Exeter edged in front after 17 minutes.Christy Pyn's booming goal kick was not dealt with by the Torquay defence. Tom Nichols collected the loose ball and as Gulls goalkeeper Martin Rice came rushing forwards, Nichols squared a pass to Bennett who had the simple task of rolling the ball into an empty net.Elliot Benyon headed a great chance wide as Torquay responded well, but despite dominating possession, they did not test Pyn and failed to register a shot on target in the first half.That soon changed with two goals in four minutes shortly after half-time. The first came when Courtney Cameron curled a stunning free-kick over the wall and into the top corner of the net, and the second when Yeoman found himself through on goal before lashing his shot beneath Pyn.Torquay remain bottom of the table but the win sees them move to within five points of safety with two matches remaining. Meanwhile, Exeter stay two points above the drop zone.

Gulls left on the brink

Dagenham edged League Two basement side Torquay closer to relegation following their 1-0 win at a sun-drenched Plainmoor.The winning goal came in the 67th minute after Torquay right back Dale Tonge fouled Medy Elito and the Dagenham forward got to his feet to plant his penalty past Martin Rice.The defeat leaves Torquay eight points adrift of safety with three games remaining, with a Devon derby trip to Exeter on Monday in the offing.It took the goal to up the ante and Torquay poured forward, with Elliot Benyon smashing a 76th minute angled drive from the right just over.At the other end Luke Howell fired just wide as Billy Bingham's corner fell to him at the far post.The closest Torquay came to levelling was through central defender Krystian Pearce, their outstanding player.Pearce had an 82nd-minute shot cleared off the line by Dagenham defender Femi Ilesanmi following substitute Jordan Chapell's corner from the right.Pearce had been denied earlier in the sixth minute from Courtney Cameron's free-kick, with Chris Lewington denying him twice from close range.

Gulls keep hopes alive

Second half goals from Shaquile Coulthirst and Lee Mansell kept alive Torquay's slim hopes of avoiding relegation by securing a 2-1 League Two victory at Bristol Rovers.Despite a late reply from Danny Woodards, the home side are now in the thick of the battle to avoid the dreaded drop after a desperately poor display.Coulthirst headed Torquay in front in the 62nd minute from a Courtney Cameron free-kick and 13 minutes later the on-loan Tottenham striker turned goal-maker, teeing up Mansell to fire past Steve Mildenhall with the aid of a deflection from 12 yards.The game was deep into stoppage time when Woodards shot home at the second attempt after Torquay goalkeeper Martin Rice had saved his first effort.A tense first half saw both sides struggle to create chances. Torquay striker Elliot Benyon forced a save from Steve Mildenhall with a smart turn and volley just before the break.Chris Beardsley headed over when he should have hit the target in the opening exchanges, but the best Rovers could manage was a long range shot from Michael Smith that cleared the crossbar.

Winnall extends Iron run

Russ Wilcox's Scunthorpe extended their record Sky Bet League Two unbeaten run to 25 matches with a 1-0 win at basement side Torquay.Scunthorpe went ahead from a 31st minute penalty. Torquay central defender Kystian Pearce fouled Matthew Sparrow as he struggled to control Paul Hayes' cross from the left 10 yards out.Sam Winnall feigned and then tucked away his 31st minute spot kick with aplomb, despite home goalkeeper Martin Rice guessing and diving the right way.Torquay right back Dale Tonge had the opportunity to restore parity when Torquay were awarded a 44th minute penalty, following a foul on Pearce following a Courtney Cameron corner.Scunthorpe keeper Sam Slocombe also guessed and dived the right way, to his left, to save Tonge's side foot spot-kick.Slocombe proved Scunthorpe's saviour. In the opening minute he palm over Karl Hawley's powerful goal-bound header from Cameron's inswinging corner.Slocombe went full stretch up into the top corner to flap over substitute Jayden Stockley's goal-bound 74th minute free-kick from 20 yards.Stockley was sent off in stoppage time for a foul on central defender David Mirfin.

Eastwood nets timely goal

Freddy Eastwood's first goal since October fired Southend to a 1-0 win against bottom-of-the-table Torquay at Roots Hall.The front man bagged the only goal of the game just seven minutes after coming off the bench. And the match-winning effort was also enough to push the Shrimpers back in to the Sky Bet League Two play-off positions.Up until then it had been a frustrating afternoon for Phil Brown's side who had been able to make a breakthrough.Centre-back Jakub Sokolik missed the Shrimpers' best chance in the first half when he volleyed over an open goal from just six yards out.After the break, Southend skipper John White headed a Kevan Hurst corner against the crossbar and Lee Barnard fired just wide from 20 yards.But, with 18 minutes remaining, Eastwood popped up to bag the game's winning goal as loanee Jacob Murphy's left-wing cross fell perfectly in to his path and enabled the striker to fire in to the roof of the net from six yards.

Minstermen pile misery on Gulls

York moved back into the play-off places with a 1-0 win over rock-bottom Torquay, their a sixth successive win.The Minstermen started like a side full of confidence and they opened the scoring through Will Hayhurst after 10 minutes with his 18-yard strike finding the top corner via a deflection off Aaron Downes.Torquay had barely threatened in the half but they almost levelled the scores 10 minutes before the interval with Enoch Showunmi's header from Billy Bodin's delivery almost dropping in at the far post.The visitors were to go even closer on the stroke of half time with Lee Mansell seeing his low free-kick pushed around the post by Nick Pope.The Gulls may have finished the first half the stronger of the sides, but it was York who almost scored the crucial second goal with Martin Rice palming away Adam Reed's powerful angled drive.Chances were at a premium for both sides in the closing stages with Downes nearly levelling the scores with a header.
