The team will depend on any last minute selections for the firsts otherwise we should have 14/15 available as per training.

As for the long term I guess it depends on the outcome of the court case on Monday as to how it affects the reserves, who knows ?

Vospers 1 Truro 0

A great battling performance against a well organised Vospers side. Un done by a poor piece of officiating where a goal bound shot was blocked hit the bar , the net moved and the ref have the goal, the assistant , who WAS in line with the ball, said it didn't go in but the ref from 25 yards away and NOT in line with the ball overruled.

FairPlay to the Vospers lads they carried on didn't cause a fuss and were delighted to get the goal. I don't like to slate refs they do a great job on the whole but several mystifying decision for both teams didn't help the game. I suppose when you at the bottom you don't get the rub of the green.

But for some wayward finishing we should have won the game as we had the lions share of possession with Scott and Jack going close with efforts.

We need goals, we play well in the first two thirds and look strong at the back but can't quite find the finishing touch in front of goal.

As you can see from the team below we were also down to the bare 11 for various reasons such as birthdays parties, with myself and the manager on the bench, surprisingly players who got a slight injury decided to stay on rather than risk our ageing limbs !

As far as I'm aware these players were not available for various reasons, Rob D, (21st birthday) Matt L (busy / work), Calron H (with 1st team), Carney (coaching on the Isles of Scilly), Olly M (work), Stu E (in Bristol), just one of those weekends when everyone was busy!

It was a shocking decision!! Speaks volume when the vospers players openly admitt it wasn't a goal and truro should have had two penalties.

It's amazing when the laws of football change the law of physics as the ref was heard to say the ball was hit up on to the bar and bounced out but the ball had crossed the line when it hit the bar. Then changed his story to the ball hit the net behind the cross bar and bounced out in front of the line...WOW!!

Ollie Morrison, far too good for SWPL West. The lad is still young, won trophies with Newquay U18's last season, represented Cornwall Youth and would walk into any side in the West and most of the Prem. Ollie is better than most teenagers in the County, I'd suggest that Footballer15 has used his usual match day number in his name here.

I also disagree with footballer15, Ollie is a talent and if you have watched him play alot then you will also share myself and nemisis view on him, I'm expecting great things from him this year and in the future!
