Torquay and Notts County finishes goalless

Paul Buckle's Torquay ended the season on an eight-game unbeaten run after holding champions Notts County 0-0 draw. Emergency loan keeper Steve Collis helped make it a club record 691 minutes without conceding a goal, making a superb diving stop to palm away Delroy Facey's volley. More than 1,750 County supporters made the trip in party mood following their table-topping campaign and it made for a rousing atmosphere. But they were indebted to keeper Kasper Schmeichel, playing his last game for the club, twice denying United's top-scorer Elliot Benyon and also dealing superbly with a fierce Kevin Nicholson shot. Benyon almost won it late on, beating the offside trap, but Schmeichel did brilliantly to keep him out yet again.
