Pitty

Holmans Res 5 (2) v (3) 3 Falmouth Dc. Thought we were dead and buried in the first 15min 0-2 down following a pitching wedge shot from about 20yds out that Adam in goal watched soar over his head startlingly reminiscent of former Holmans goalkeeping legend Jimmy Hosking during his lobbed from the halfway period in the late 90's. Luckily we rallied, reorganised deckchairs and some how got back to 2-2. 5 Min before half time Adam came for a cross in a very determined manner but had an onset of limp wristiness allowing Falmouth to sneak in 2-3 up at half time. More organising of the deckchairs at half time seemed to do the trick and 2 quick goals saw the home side take the lead for the first time adding a 5th with about 20min to go. Pitch very heavy not quite conditions that Peppa Pig would be proud to wallow around in but a bit energy sapping for our more 'senior players' (me included 44 might be the time to retire ......or maybe not) Anyway much needed 3 points in the relegation dogfight at the bottom of Div1 but on to a tough Home fixture against Rosudgeon next week

Which team are you referring to? If you mean the 1st team they were in the JC so have stated the result on another thread not related to this one - 2nds went down 0-2

I wouldn’t say SNE we’re out and out deserved winners it was a close game maybe ruined by some silly comments from the sidelines And some rather ‘strange’ decisions from the officials. Possible red card for SNE that never was and a sin bin for the home side that never should have been. Thought it was going to penalties but with a goal in the final 3 mins the home side edged a keenly contested blood and guts fixture that could have gone either way

I was sent off for that last year!! Apparently denied a goal scoring opportunity but in all honesty was a clumsy t*t who lost situational awareness of the line and was on the right hand side of the penalty box......attacker was nearby 🤔

Holmans 4-1 Illogan safe to say we enjoyed the Boxing Day experience today Attendance not a record breaker at 50 and over the years a Holmans win not always been the outcome when sadly Illogan have come up trumps but always a fixture to look forward to no matter what the position of the two teams and a rather sad statement of local football when these two sides are the only ones to contest a local derby at grassroots football 🤔

12 O Clock kick off - Pitch has passed the inspection this morning GAME ON. On another note can’t believe this is the only game scheduled for the Trelawny league today! What has happened to clubs requesting to have a local derby during the festive season?

😂 trusty old Blaythorne was up to the ankles in mud after the last couple of weeks and with a Boxing Day Fixture due on it we thought we would give it a week off St Day 3rds v Holman 2nds OFF - Too much dust from the rock hard pitch

Yes mate in the County Rules

Reverts to Blaythorne next week.........weather forecast for next week not to bad so fingers crossed should be ok 👍

Four Lanes Res v Holman Res OFF........Something to do with a big rock and Bruce Willis with an Aerosmith song playing in the background hitting the pitch making it unplayable

TMS v Holmans in Junior Cup OFF - Pitch Rock hard from the endless sunshine and unplayable

Not heard anything yet......fingers crossed

Glen I get it but do you not think if as a club if you made the effort to travel but might not have made it on time their would have been an option for Bude to ‘hang on’ and the 2:30ko delayed if you rung them enroute.....I’m pretty sure as a player when I had arrived at the ground got changed and was out warming up to be told a team would be 15min late I wouldn’t have chucked the cabbage patch kids about and stormed off 🤷‍♂️

These leagues are now Combo and ECPL in all but name! Same standard same players......same teams! On that evidence I don’t see why the remaining combo and ECPL sides would wish to remain where they are as the travelling issue has gone.........The burning question I would pose now though with this new development is where does that leave the Combo & ECPL do they continue (with no teams!) or are they to be made up of sides from the top division of Duchy and Trelawny respectively?......Combo and ECPL been thrown under a bit of a bus here unfortunately. The FA have created a step 7 league with the same format that was already there

What now happens to the remaining 7 sides in the combination league? Do they continue with an additional 9 sides from Trelawny Premier or Is the combo to discontinue and the 9 sides are absorbed into the Trelawny league???
