Richard Chown Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Well having watched Redruth United on Saturday and speaking to officials at the club they fully intend to go up. Just need the council to sort the goal posts out. Might want to check another grapevine...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulo bestiniho Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 If Redruth don't go up to combo it won't be there decision or through lack of ambition I wouldn't have thought. More than likely down to the state of the pitches at calijah. The pitches could be really nice up there but never maintained. The pitch they want for the combo in my eyes is the one that needs the most work but is the only one that meets combination football criteria ie disabled access to the pitch, some sort of path to the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kempy Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I think there are too many clubs in the Combo league !! nothing against ambition to progress up the league structure just with the bad weather we have had the last few seasons most of us usually have a quarter of the season to play in May..

Richard Chown Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Having spoke to Darren yesterday I was truly inspired by what he and his committee are doing to promote Redruth United to senior status. He sacrificed himself as first team manager for the greater good of the club. Great reserve team. That is what you call ambition. Puts my club to shame. Very envious.

Guest BenTheYeti Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Football in (West) Cornwall needs more clubs with this kind of attitude. Yes, there are lots of clubs who have tried and are on the way back down, much to the amusement of some on these forums But clubs like St Day, Wendron, Redruth United and TMS should be applauded for their efforts in bringing the highest level of football possible to their players, fans and local community Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't agree more Kempy, 20 clubs at this level is too many - 18 clubs would be more manageable. Can't deny Trelawny clubs promotion on the other hand. If the bottom 2 Combo clubs at the end of 2013/14 are relegated (regardless of Trelawny clubs being promoted) and subsequent seasons until the league reduces 18 clubs it would seem fair. Would need this to be proposed and voted at the AGM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Marks Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 Paulo , I can say one thing having managed two combo teams in my time I'd rather go to clijah with a combo side than st Ives that pitch is like playing on the beach. Great changing facilities but a joke pitch for senior football. Clijah is no worse than some others to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constantine also .... Maybe the good teams that we have had over the years and the success for a small village club plays on the minds of visiting teams . Never an easy place to go ..... not just because of the pitch . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Eddy Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 if!! Redruth utd. do play on the top pitch there is a slope beside the speed bumps that you could get a wheel chair up with help. Or at the far end of the pitches you can get in from the road. Apart from the grass being too soft for the wheels I see no other problem. good luck to them Darren and the team have done the groundwork ,graft and time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulo bestiniho Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 I think there are some issues with putting sponsor boards on the top pitch at calijah due to The residents next to the pitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
