Just wondering am I OK using a plastic tray for their water rather than a terracotta?

If it is easy accessible it's not a problem
U might get annoyed though after they pushed it around a few times [emoji1]

Depends on the dimensions. Most are too tall. Plastic ones also don't offer traction to wet tortoise feet. Its a bad thing if your tortoises doesn't want to use its water dish because it isn't comfortable with it.

Why don't you like the terra cotta saucers?

I use plastic instead of clay.
