WendronOfficial Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Such a shame - really good people there. We played their firsts near the end of the season and they were struggling to get a side out then. Be interesting to see what some of the lads do as there are some good players there!

Such a shame, but if there are any new clubs needing a pitch, Trethewa or Trefrewa is available and only one playing at Drym Road Nancegollan. If minimal facility requirements become Trelawny League rules, would Praze get back in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted June 23, 2016 Report Share Posted June 23, 2016 And it's only going to get worse. Now we are paying for all the structured kids football , where everything is done for them from 6 years of age. And where they've been brought up on televised football, so interest in "real" football is diminishing as we all get older. They just turn up and play, and they're bringing that ethos with them into men's football. Plenty more teams to fold yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ715 Posted June 24, 2016 Report Share Posted June 24, 2016 Which two sides are these? with so many teams dropping out we are not going to be left with many.

Makes a bit of a farce of the spirit of the game when this happens I think!? Every club is allowed to play two players from the higher ranked teams, that was cut from 3 to 2 a couple of seasons ago I believe!!! There's lots of loopholes in it but to be considered a higher level player you have to play 50percent of higher teams fixtures or 3 consecutive fixtures for higher ranked sides! What's wrong with putting two players in who are signed play for your club if there available because they've signed for your club for all teams why shouldn't they be allowed to help out all the sides when available?? The rule that everyone should be pushing for is one I said about couple seasons ago where if your club has a peninsula,combination and trelawny league side you can't sign for trelawny side elsewhere.... Sign for whole Club and can play for anyone in that club shouldn't not be allowed help own club out... On other side coin if you've got junior player towards end of season and combination side got loads of injuries and he's helping them out and with lots fixtures end season if he played Saturday Wednesday Saturday for them even if the only three times all year there then classed as a senior player until they've played 3 consecutive junior fixtures this rule maybe one rules why players don't wanna step up!! Or bring in same rule as there is for teams with two trelawny sides you keep status you had as player on 1at April for rest of season for example if played for thirds all year in trelawny league then help out combo few times after that date you still remain junior player or another way put back to old rule of 5 games before becoming senior player. would be interesting hear other senior clubs opinions on whether this caused any issues for them?

Guest Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 Is there really much of a difference in standard between combo and Trelawny anymore? Yeah you get some players in combo that can set the Trelawny league on fire, but that's just a minority in my opinion.

Sijames Posted June 25, 2016 Report Share Posted June 25, 2016 X2 of the changing rooms will be doubling up I believe with x2 home teams and x2 away in the other one...not ideal, especially for managers trying to give team talks or if there is history between these teams!

Guest Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 I know planning permission would be needed but it's a shame forum users and people in the local football community couldn't do a DIY SOS and build some changing facilities. Nothing fancy with huge changing rooms, two lots of referees rooms but something that is acceptable for Trelawny standard football. Failing that a donation for a Nancegollan style structure.

Camborne Town still play there so would have to share still. Again though a lack of changing facilities at this ground using the church next door.

Guest Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 Pitches worse than Park Road? You're actually asking that question? Chiverton springs to mind straight away. I'd much rather play on that pitch than quite a few I've played on over the last few seasons. Theres nothing wrong with Park Road. it has different qualities as with most pitches. Some don't drain well, some cut up easy, some are very patchy in places, some are bobbly, some have a slope etc... With the small slope aside, Park Road is one of the better pitches around CP&R. The only thing that lets it down is the fact there are no changing facilities. 1 hour ago, Willow Tree said: I know Town are still there but if it's a choice between sharing or going further out of town, even to Clijah I would guess it would be better. Don't they use the school building to change? Harking back to my playing days that's what they used then. It's the old school, a community centre. They divide the hall with a screen. The only shower is in a disabled toilet where the referee gets changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 26, 2016 Report Share Posted June 26, 2016 Halsetown was always a classic. Hemmed in on all sides and those huge boulders on the bottom side were always waiting for a player to crash into them. I did prefer it to St Ives Rugby Club though, something more intimate about it. For me the two worst pitches I had the pleasure of playing on were Roskear (with one half seemingly bigger than the other) and Penzance Leisure Centre which seemed to be such a small pitch. Not far behind was Cury and that sloping pitch and Ruan Minor as someone pointed out before I went there, the goalposts didn't line up. I was down that way in February and it seems as though building work was taken place to improve the old shoddy changing rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sijames Posted June 27, 2016 Report Share Posted June 27, 2016 Yes have to agree the park road pitch has a terrible slope, either lots of grass and dogs muck everywhere or no grass and a mud bath! Clijah are not the greatest either mind you, again dogs mess and sticks everywhere. still, plenty of money coming to Cornwall soon now we've left the EU...! it is a shame to see so many teams struggling though, I think it stems from not enough decent youth set ups in Cornwall.
