    I think to play in the Senior Cup, you must have played in at least one league game.

    Well there’s four quick league games coming up he can get in quick! But will this rain continue to ️ cause havoc again! Good signing to increase quality  squad depth in last few weeks of fixture pile up.

    Although to be fair they have a strong enough squad to cover absentees.

    Regarding an earlier comment - indeed, an early off decision is certainly of help to some. 

    That’s true! The climate trend is more rainfall for winters now but that trend continuing into spring will get worse for completing fixtures.

    With the possibility of such a gate, I'm still surprised the game has been called off a day earlier than necessary. The wait might have been worth it and wouldn't have hurt anyone. This fixture might be put back now after final positions have been decided and you can guarantee the attendance won't be so big.

    Heard Helston captain and top striker injured!

    Perhaps more evidence that the FA at times don’t really consider the non-league football follower! Easter should be for local derbies not possibly  travelling half the length of the country!

    Not jumping the gun, but the first FA Vase semi final date is Saturday the 30th of March.

    Potential fixtures for Falmouth are & I know something will give.

    29/3 Away at Helston

    30/3 FA Vase Semi First Leg

    1/4 Cornwall Senior Cup

    Your right . Massey and Wilson will be available for helston game again but obviously cup tied for vase and senior cup.

    Funny reading the Falmouth comments about JBE. JBE makes every side stronger that’s a fact. Falmouth not better without him. He could’ve gone even higher but went to mousehole for the professionalism and the sport science equipment. Falmouth should be respectful he was only there one season and was the best player by a mile. 

    JBE was excellent last season for Falmouth but this season, even after a lot of games back from injury he just didn’t seem to get going! Higher opposition maybe? Who knows! 
    Can’t wait for Falmouth v Bridgewater game next!  
    💛🖤

  6. An important 3 points for Falmouth pushes us up to tenth in the league and now sets us up for a push for a top ten finish in new year. Interestingly I think Barnstable had 9 players under 17 yesterday in squad? so they seem to be rebuilding too and there’s no doubt we certainly beat a good team yesterday. Their goalkeeper is a character isn’t he shouting verbals at Luke Brabyn  like “ you can’t miss those chances striker “ and language I can’t use on here! Obviously tactics to put him off! Well Karma does exist and Luke had the last laugh 2 clinical goals etc.

    Think Ollie Walker and Timmy Nixon on the wings with Luke Brabyn as centre forward competing with Charlie Edney for that position. Will Westy sign someone ? who knows.

    Hi Jeff fingers crossed 🤞 - I like to see Ollie Walker as an attacking winger and not sucked back too defensively. If Ollie is more forward then Westy is gonna need a fast striker to keep up with Ollie’s pace!!

    Thought mousehole had plenty of firepower there already. An odd move to be honest .  Will be a big blow to Falmouth they will need to bring in a quality striker from their somewhere quick. 

    Who would you like to see Falmouth bring in to replace JBE?

    Luke Brabyn might play as stand in striker but Alex Wharton seems to be playing for Camleford now who could have slotted on the right or even upfront. We also have Charlie Edney and Ollie Pickup. No disrespect to JBE it might allow an opportunity to bring in someone else to change our fortunes as I believe missed chances has been our Achilles heel this season.  💛🖤

  9. In our previous games we lost, drew against Helston and some previous away league games - I wondered what could have been if we had our caption and striker available. With James Ward and Jack Bray Evans back it adds a different dimension although they both probably not fully match fit yet. The link up plays between Barner, Brabyn and JBE etc are starting to come back and work at higher league level and a joy to watch. Does anyone else think Ollie walker looked exceptionally quick?! - fingers crossed we have him for longer as I believe he is seeking a new job. Just a side note all the Falmouth players have been excellent this year and their efforts will bring success in the long term. 💛🖤💛🖤

    Jordan Annear and Liam Prynn are the Falmouth "Guns For Hire." Both listed as Town players on FA Full Time.

    I believe Jordan plays for Bishops Cleeve and Liam Prynn obviously still with Tavistock. Although dual signed still with Falmouth. 
    I am no expert but when I follow some teams,  I personally like to see two strikers because I believe having a partner relieves the burden to carry the attack and then defenders have to spilt their attention between two forwards putting greater strain and confusion on defences and bringing more dimension. However when you play with two strikers I think more defensive stability can be lost because of one less player in midfield.
