Cornish-Ref Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Although in theory we should be half way through the season and rumours state Trewlany Prem team(s) might or have applied from promotion (Redruth from what has been said on here, although it doesn't count for anything), it is definitely beginning to warm up at the bottom......Who might fall to the lower league.......?

sammo 66 Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 If you look at the bottom six . Porthleven hayle and Newquay will all load up there side in midweek fixtures , and there will be a lot of them this season . If holmans start picking up points maybe fal ath and Troon could be drawn into it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pointers Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I think the real question should be how many will be eligible to come up from the trelawny prem to combo..? If its more than x2,and they finish in the appropriate positions then that's when the combo clubs need to start worrying,I can't see any coming up from the trelawny prem to combo,no one other than Illogan have the facilities needed at senior football,and they won't be going up as their firsts don't seem to be interested in swpl.

Topcat Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I think you will find that only the top two can now apply for promotion, it used to be top two from Fal/Hel league and top two of Mining league could apply. since the amalgamation of the leagues it is now just the top two from Trelawney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Illogan not legible for promotion the other two clubs can apply.

pointers Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Agreed about pendeen and st Ives but I do think that all senior clubs should have a clubhouse,I also think that if clubs that apply for promotion require certain things to do with their grounds,then clubs who are currently in that league they are applying for should also have to have these facilities by a set date,else it is favourable to clubs who have been in the league for years,this way you'd ensure the first step of senior football is a good one for players and spectators.

Guest BenTheYeti Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Would there be enough clubs that could fulfil such criteria though.. plus there's the financial aspects to consider Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pitty Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Ben financially apart from wasting the money entering the senior cup and avoiding at all costs fines from the league commitee it can actually be financially more rewarding being in the combo (gate money) I think by the end of Feb it will be pretty clear who will be in for the drop and even I must admit through my rose tinted spectacles if we dont pick up at least 7 points in February with 3 of our 4 matches at home against St Just, Perranwell & Newquay and then the tricky trip away to face St Just again we are going to have a mountain larger then Kilimanjaro to climb to extract ourselves from the bottom two places Spirit is still high at Blaythorne though and its not all doom and gloom as some of our knockers may believe in fact we are looking forward to seeing Steve and his barmy army this weekend. I think the bottom two will go down as Im sure that Redruth and Threemilestone who are both well run clubs should finish in the required positions and Im sure both set ups (Malpas) & (Clijah top pitch) will pass the required inspections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish-Ref Posted January 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Further to my last post, I have just spoken with a member of the combination league committee. He kindly confirmed for me that a maximum of two teams can be promoted and that they must finish in the top four. Two teams therefore can be relegated.As Pitty says, it is going to be tough for the bottom clubs, but for sure will make things very interesting and extremely competitive at the bottom of the division.The games of the season could be;09/02/13 Falmouth Athletic DC v Newquay23/03/13 Holman Sports Club v Porthleven02/04/13 Porthleven v Troon13/04/13 Newquay v Porthleven13/04/13 Falmouth Athletic DC v St Just23/04/13 Hayle v Holman Sports Club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

striker8 Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Holmans and Fal Athletic have to be favourites to go down, with the other teams like Porthleven being able to use 1st teamers in the plenty of midweek games that will be coming up.

That makes it a more level playing field, its a good new rule. When i played a good few years ago you could play the whole sw league team or western league team in Falmouths case in mid week matches because it was all classed as senior football.
