View from the Director's Box It's results that count This week saw a high profile sacking when Chelsea parted company with manager Roberto di Matteo, who had steered them to their first ever Champions League success - the pinnacle for a club side - only six months ago. It just goes to show it is recent results and current success that matter and chairmen and fans have scant regard to past triumphs. Whether we feel it was a harsh judgement on Matteo or not, it is the football world we live in. Results have not been particularly impressive nearer to home of late, with our team failing to win back to back games since our opening two fixtures. Given the talent that we have on the park, this is most disconcerting. La Nucia failed to win any of their first six games (if including Orihuela), but since have moved into overdrive and currently head the table. This is very much what is needed by ourselves at present and there is no reason why it cannot be done. With a third of the season under our collective belts, I am hard pushed to nominate any side as noticeably better than the rest. This is reflected in the league table where a couple of losses from the top sides and a couple of wins from the lower sides and it would be all topsy turvy. It is always a bitter pill to swallow when points are seemingly squandered. I am sure that most observers would have expected us to put nine man Eldense to the sword, given the ample amount of time left of the clock to do so. The home defeat by Alzira still stings as they did not deserve the points. But, by the same token, we must stick the ball in the net if we want to win and patently we failed to do just this. Some say that over the course of a season the best team rises to the top and that may well prove to be so. There is still an absolute conviction at the Vicente Garcia that FC Torrevieja is the best in class, so now it really is time to put up or shut up. We believe we have the people in place to deliver the success we so fervently desire. We are convinced that the players are determined to win and take us to the heights we so covet. We know our fans will support us with all their might. So let's make today the start of a great run of winning results and prove that we warrant our much touted reputation as one of the sides to beat in this division. Would you settle for 3-0?

FC TORRY Calendars Chistmas is 30 days away! Yes, less than 28 shopping days until Christmas and some of you may be looking for something a little different for yopur footie loving friends. May we present to you the: 2013 FC Torrvieja Calendar. The limited edition Calendar is available at all home games or you can reserve a copy by contacting Club Treasurer Jeff. The 2013 club calendar will NOT feature fit, naked young men, so there will be no need to up the blood pressure medication. This may be a disappointment to some, but never fear, we will have something better to stir the blood. Keith Nicol, Colin Lancaster and the odd amateur have been snapping and clicking like men possessed trying to find those action shots of our lads in play to inspire a generation. The net result, excuse the pun, is a classy set of photographs that can adorn your kitchen wall and keep you well in touch with what day it is! Provided you can take you eyes off the team and look for the date! We are indebted to many friends for helping fund this project and I hope you will support us by buying one today while you enjoy watching the lads play against Catarroja. They cost a miserly â‚Ź5.00 each and will make a nice little present for your Torry friends. 4

Catarroja CF Today's Visitors Catarroja CF Catarroja won the group six championship last season under the leadership of Scotsman John Clarkson. They failed to win their play off matches and John left them to take over at 2B club, Ontinyent. This season Catarroja has struggled and are currently rooted to the bottom of the table, having lost their last six matches. They lost last weekend at home to Novelda and have a mere six points on the board. They have one recorded success under their belt, that a 2-0 victory on the road at Borriol in early October. They have only managed two draws and five losses from their seven home league ties thus far. With only nine goals to their credit, leading marksman this time round with two strikes is Alberto L贸pez Nadal, who notched five last season for Mislata. Last season Torry were the first club to defeat Catarroja at the Mundial 82, when a Petu strike settled the match. Catarroja blasted Torry throughout the second half, but could not find the net. John later signed Petu in January. The scoreline was reversed in the return tie when an 94th minute header from veteran striker Madrigal secured all three points. This time round it is Torry with the former Catarroja strikers, with Ernesto and Koeman leading the line for the Salineros having enjoyed championship glory at the Mundial 82 last season.

Group 6 Round Up A duck's backside It is certainly as tight as the proverbial duck's hind quarters as we approach week 15 matches. Second placed Novelda host leaders La Nucia, so it could stay mightily close all round, if these two fight out a likely draw. A mere seven points seperates Utiel in the play off places and Denia in the relegation zone. So it is fair to say, whichever sides can string a decent run of results together could easily push themselves into play off contention. Seven wins and a draw from their last eight is exactly the string of results needed, which is just what La Nucia has done to top the table, after a winless opening five stretch. They easily accounted for Crevillente last weekend with Petu notching his third of the season. We play them at the Camilo Cano next up. Novelda will attempt to be the first club to lower their colours and indeed they themselves are hard to defeat at home, but a draw looks the likeliest outcome. Castellon thumped Muro 5-1 on Sunday in front of 1400 fans despite going down to a sixth minute goal. They lie in fifth place and may well now go on a winning spree. New boys Burriana are unbeaten in six and have also pushed their way up the table, loitering on the fringes of the play off places. A win today over struggling Llosa and they may well be there. Jove is another club stuttering of late, but five wins at home from six is a good record and they will be seeking to improve upon that by defeating Eldense and in turn heading back into the top four themselves. At the other end of the table, we hope Catarroja do not find their form today and lift themselves off the botton, whilst the next two face each other in Crevillente. The home side boasts just the one victory this term (over Catarroja), whilst Borriol has notched two home wins, but precious little on the road so far. Denia can do themselves a power of good, bursting out of the relegation places with a home win over third placed Alzira. They have only tasted defeat once at home this term, though Alzira's away form, with five wins, is very impressive. 14
TERCERA DIVISIĂ“N: Grupo 6
Terry Harris has been in touch recently to let his friends know that his son Steven has been making marvellous signs of improvement. Terry's friends will know that Steven suffered a horrendous car accident two years ago and it has been a long and painful recovery process. Terry has been very grateful for all the messages and support that came his way from members of the Torry Army and wishes that they all know how much this means to him. Terry was a hugely popular character at matches and was a regular contributor to the forlorn efforts to win the Euro Millions jackpot and be able to secure the financial future of the club. He travelled often to away matches, preferring to drive there himself, but then meet up with his fellow fans. I am sure you will be delighted to learn of his son's improvement and doubtless you will want to endorse the view that this continues positively. Any Torry Army members who use the forum are still able to keep in touch with Terry by using the private message facility of this site, where Terry's moniker is Torrytel. 15
