Torquay United have opened talks with Plymouth Argyle regarding sharing their training facilities at Seale Hayne.
Following the decision to axe their youth academy, the Gulls no longer require some of their training ground and other facilities, which could be of use to the Pilgrims.
Such an agreement would allow United to stay at Seale Hayne, after the previous consortium had spent a significant sum - believed to be in the region of £200,000 on levelling a large area of the ground, improving drainage and other facilities such as changing rooms, offices, medical rooms and a gymnasium.
This week also saw manager Paul Cox bring in John Ramshaw as his assistant manager; Ramshaw has previously worked with Cox at both Mansfield Town and Eastwood Town and Cox also served under him as a player-coach at Leek Town.
Cox is also hoping to make a number of new signings before the end of the week, when the National League fixture list for the 2015-16 campaign is unveiled. One of them could well be an experienced goalkeeper to help mentor young Dan Lavercombe that Cox has previously hinted about at his first Fans Forum last week.
