Troon 3 (Procter 2, G Bell 1) Helston 1 (Nev??)

As usual the wind was blowing up at Grouter park, and we wouldnt have it any other way! sadly the rain held off though....!

Helston started brightly and created a few decent chances, but failed to take them, with the home keeper (D Mitchell) making two outstanding saves which any keeper would of been proud of. The ref was having a shocker, for both teams, and to be honest i thought Helston should of had a penalty when Nev was brought down in the box....but nothing given..!??!! 0 - 0 at halftime then. and a nice cuppa from the clubhouse.

Second half began as the first ended, a chance for Helston, but yet again failed to take it, Troon started to get into and it was not long before Matt Witts created a chance which Stevie Procter smashed into the corner of the net to make it 1-0. 5 mins after that the ball fell to Stevie again about 23 yeads out (roughly...), and he unleashed another one which flew into the top corner!! heslton began to bitch and moan at any and everyone, couldnt get a ball onto play quick enough for them, decisons were going against them etc... Troon added another when good work by danny Bell and lee gribble enabled the ball to find Gary Bell who hit the ball again into the top corner.

Helston grabbed a consolation goal to make it 3-1, but all in all Troon were good for the win, taking the chances and defending well, with beefy, rob troon, and driller all in top form at the back and keeping nev the 8 goals machine quiet.

Big mention to scott smeeth and vic who worked there socks off up and down the flanks.

Roll on the next round.
