Big Breakfast Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Seeing as I am Cozy Powell I can say that I will not be in charge of Porthleven this afternoon. I along with several other Rangers will be helping out Porthleven 1st and Combo today as we have no game ourselves. I for one have commited myself to Rangers for another season and I fully intend to standby that decision and hopefully my players will too.

A Fair Voice Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Well, it seems to be no secret from previous posts that John Dent is being considered for the post at Penzance. Will it depend on the financial package? Has he started in the role unofficially, considering players? Are there concerns about the involvement from within the club ? As a matter of interest who is the Chairman , Vice Chairman and Second Team Manager It is a great shame to see such a club as Penzance suffer as they are and I hope that they will soon be back on a firm footing on the pitch.

I rarely comment on these forums as they tend to be full of comments from people who do not know the facts or are reporting them incorrectly, this is definately one of those. Gala7 you are way off the mark, We lost 10 players in the summer because of various reasons from long term injuries to players moving away from the area. Yet we only promoted three players from the second team. The first game of the season we had a first team squad of twelve available and five unavailable, so in my eyes a reasonable squad for a penninsula team that doesn't pay at all. I gave the club a weeks notice of my intention to resign and during that time arranged training and the squad for the following game as was asked of me. Unfortuately players unavailability can not be blamed on me after the event. There was certainly more than 9 players available when i left the club. i have my reasons for leaving the club which are my own and I do not intend to air mine or the clubs dirty linen in public, that is not my style. I don't know who you are Gala7 but you now know who I am so please either speak to me personally or stop spreading incorrect information on this forum, you clearly don't have a clue what you are talking about.

Uni Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Why even bother starting the season as manager, if you gave them a weeks notice anyway that would have been as soon as the season kicked off, why not of left in the summer and given another manager a chance to come in work their system in pre season and maybe o brought in some new players or have kept some of the many that left?

Trombone Terry Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 Denty with all due respect you are out of the frying pan iPad into the fire there lad. The foxhole situation always a shambles and if I were a Penzance supporter I'd be worried at these so called 'decent managers' that keep leaving them in a worse situation than beFore? It is an absolute travesty what has happened there and for the sake of parity I'm not a great fan but they always put on a good show. Are you the new manager? Or can't you say as yet? They struggled to attract any players when they had a great chance ore season with robin and Steve and were unsuccessful then and unsuccessful now. Those guys were (and this is my opinion) far far more successful and better at coaching than you and still they failed badly it goes to show that either players don't want to play for you or......they don't want to get hammered 8 or 9 or 10 nil every week. It's not that easy to get 15 players to play for you these days and the levy story shows that. Loyalty is importantly something which isn't about in abundance at the moment locally. Need to go right back to basics. Do you have a budget at Penzance? That's the only reason I can see anyone who is still sane from joing up?

stroz Posted August 29, 2012 Report Share Posted August 29, 2012 I love it when people comment on stuff they know absolutely nothing about. I am one of the players that left port last year and am good friends with the majority of the rest and it is simply not true that we left because of John. I personally left for personal reasons and certain things I didn't agree with nothing to do with John. In fact quite the opposite I would have stayed because of him. Yeah there may be some players that didn't get on with him bit you can say that about most managers. I know for a fact that John would have stayed if the committee sorted certain things out and he gave them the chance to do this rightly or wrongly the club decided not to act, end of story. John wasn't happy to work the way things were and I think alot of other managers would have felt the same. There is no point slagging people off if you don't know the facts. I'm all for an open debate as we all have an opinion but there is no point making stuff up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topcat Posted August 30, 2012 Report Share Posted August 30, 2012 I think Port could struggle to find a new manager as anyone who know's John Dent at all, will know that his efforts are second to none,so must be a difficult task. Although I did here to-day that a Penryn man could be asked to take over, but talking to him the other day highly unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footie Nut Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Having just read through these posts again I don't see a lot of negative John Dent comments. From what I can gather no-one worked harder than Denty to turn things around but for one reason or another, players left during the summer and he had a difficult job replacing them. Therefore it seems better for both John and Port that he move on. Seems a strange choice to move to PZ though as they seem to be in a pretty bad situation themselves. Anyway, good luck John.

Lafs Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 This topic just about sums local football up in my opinion. A guy who is as passionate as the next guy about football gives up his time to share his passion, experience and knowledge with local footballers at his own cost then decides his tenure is no longer viable only to be peppered with insults on this forum! For the record, I have no allegiance to either John or Porthleven FC, just seeing it from the perspective of someone who also chooses to remain involved in local football after their playing days. Best of luck John in whatever you choose to do next and best of luck Porthleven with your new management appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemesis Posted August 31, 2012 Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Newquay fans have seen Dent at 2 or 3 clubs, didn't matter which club he was at, his passion was clear for all to see. I can't speak for his man management or why he and Port's committee disagreed, I can only tell you what I have seen. Many opposing fans in the stands did not like his style or even his choice of words or tactics, but he wasn't in it to please other teams. I strongly believe he is a man with a passion for football, no matter where he is, all he wants is for the players of his team to win... if you have a manager who doesn't, then you have the wrong man for the job. Penzance are too big a club to fall into Junior leagues, Porthleven will find a way to progress, they have gone through some rough times of their own recently, Vidal will find a way.

Paparazzi Posted September 2, 2012 Report Share Posted September 2, 2012 Porthleven will bounce back, we have been bouncing back all summer, the new refurbed club house is looking great, and is getting into a better posistion than it has for years. As for the committee having to sort things out for john dent? i have no clue what this is and it sounds like a load of tosh to me. What i can tell you is the commitee has been working their a**e of over the summer for THE CLUB and have done great for once we have a committee who really does have the club at heart unfortunately it took a long time to get there, but each and everyone we have now can take credit for what they have done.

You are probably right about the committee having to sort things out as the majority of them probably didnt even know there was a problem, and i agree that the non-football people on the committee are doing a great job behind the scenes. You will find though that some of the committee knew the issues and the fact this was probably not brought up in a meeting to discuss will explain some of the issues!. Anyway end of story now hopefully the club will move forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
