Sticker Forever Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Not the home glamour tie that was wanted I'm sure but a good chance for Truro to get in the hat for the first round proper I would have thought especially on current form ??

somersetspur Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Its a great draw. AWAY to a side who have only won twice in the League. Truro City will go there with no fear,and will have a good chance of progressing. One thing for sure with the AWAY draw,there will be a cracking atmosphere,much better than Treyew Rd.

Bruegel the Elder Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Truro v Argyle wouldn't happen, the fixture would be reversed I.e.

somersetspur Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 I see that a few Clubs,in the Cup draw,are thanking there supporters,by laying on free transport to get to their away ties. Would'nt it be a great gesture,by Peter Masters,to lay on some free transport for supporters,to get to the game ,and maybe witness more history. After all £7,500 was won for the last victory. There was a rumour,that half that money was given to the squad. Be nice to reward the supporters as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing Town fans can still claim bragging rights to is being the only Cornish team to qualify for the 1st round proper.

Kernowman Posted October 7, 2017 Report Share Posted October 7, 2017 If Truro do make it to the first round draw, and good luck to them from a Falmouth Supporter, at least it will be a few years before they match the record of 'three' times of playing in the first round proper - and I really believe that this is a record to be around for many more years yet!

The problem, as I see it, is quite straightforward, the opposition wanted to win as well, how jolt unsporting of them, daring to challenge the league leaders! Next week is now a problem, they've got their tails up and they're at home. I really hope Truro will pull something out of the bag but it's going to be hard graft.

Its a known fact,some people at the Club,just dont want TISA anywhere near it. At the end of last season,progress was being made between TISA and the Official Supporters Club. TISA 's Secretary and the Supporters Club Chairman,had some really encouraging discussion's about the future. But Im afraid at the Supporters Club AGM.The Chairman was removed from his duties and replaced by a new Chairman. The new Chairman,has a different attitude,Im afraid.

David what clubs have you seen offering free transport other than possibly a few seats on the team bus? - I ask because I am not aware of any. I don't think clubs like Truro should provide FREE Transport. We all know without seeing any figures that the team is heavily subsidised with it costing more to run than the attendance revenue.

VENUE FOR MATCHES (a) Venue (i) The venue of each match (save for the Semi-Finals or Final which will be played at venues selected by the Professional Game Board) will be that of the first named Club. Subject to Competition Rules 9(a)(ii) and 9(a)(iii) such match shall be played on that ground unless the consent of the Professional Game Board has been obtained to any change of venue. In the case of a replay, subject to Competition Rules 9(a)(ii) and 9(a)(iii), the match shall be played on the ground of the second drawn Club, unless the consent of the Professional Game Board has been obtained to any change of venue. (ii) For a tie to be played on the ground of a Club outside The FA Premier League or Football League playing a Club from The FA Premier League or The Football League, the Home Club shall take all necessary steps to liaise with the local enforcing authority and/or Police to assess the suitability from a safety or security point of view of staging a tie at the ground. Any such assessment shall be completed within three days of the date of the Draw (or the date of the drawn tie in the case of a replay) or such longer period as shall be agreed by The Association. The Home Club shall forthwith notify the outcome of the assessment to The Association along with such documentation supporting the assessment as may be required by The Association. The Association will decide whether to allow and require the match to be played at such ground or not, taking into account the assessment and any supporting documentation. In the event that The Association allows and requires the match to be played at that ground, the Away Club may still lodge a protest under the provision of Competition Rule 9(b) if applicable. In the event that The Association decides not to allow the match to be played at that ground then the first alternative ground shall be the nearest suitable ground subject to the agreement of the Professional Game Board. (iii) In any event, the Professional Game Board shall have the power to order that any match be played on an alternative ground or date, including a Sunday, if it is considered appropriate and necessary. For ties switched from the ground of the Club first drawn, then the Professional Game Board shall determine the financial conditions in which the tie shall be played and this may include, any excess receipts to be paid into the Pool. (iv) No monetary or other consideration shall be asked for, offered or paid in connection with negotiations for a change of venue. (v) Any Club with a tie switched after declaring that the ground has been authorised to a capacity agreed with the local enforcing authority or Police may be refused entry into the Competition for the following season and be subject to such other action as the Professional Game Board shall deem necessary. (b) Protests Regarding the Suitability of Ground 7 (i) A Club may protest to the Professional Game Board that the ground of the Home Club is unsuitable for the match. Such protest must be made to the Professional Game Board and must be accompanied by a fee of £250, which may be forfeited if the protest is not sustained. (ii) The Professional Game Board shall have the power to consider the protest in such manner and following such procedures as it considers appropriate. The Professional Game Board may amongst other things order the match to be played on the ground of the protesting Club, or on a neutral ground. The payment of the costs incurred by either Club or The Association incidental to the protest shall be at the discretion of the Professional Game Board. (c) Ground Sharing Clubs with ground sharing agreements must arrange for ties to be played on Friday, Saturday or Sunday. If a clash of fixtures occurs with the sharing Club or other Sport, if for any reason a tie is unable to be played on the ground of the first drawn Club on a Saturday, the tie must be played on either the day before, i.e. on Friday, or the day after, i.e. on Sunday on the ground of the First drawn Club. If Clubs are unable to agree on the date, then it will be played on the Sunday, unless the Professional Game Board decides otherwise. The decision of the Professional Game Board shall be final and binding. FIXTURE REVERSALS CAN STILL BE POSSIBLE (the three day notification period could be a busy time.
