Could Truro theoretically drop down to the SWPL or would they have to start from further down? All depends if the League they apply to enter,accepts their application.

Believe one is connected to the Supporters Club. As for the money.Chairman wasnt the only one pumping it in. As Mr Deacon has said this is all old news,and we have heard it all,before. Those trustees should be in the dock, it was their job to protect the ground for our club. I would hope none of them are still associated with the club, I wouldn’t dare show my face at Treyew Road!

TheolderIgetthebetterIwas Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Looks like the £2 million is critical to tcfc surviving at their present level. Can't see them doing that well if they have to pay a commercial rent! Malpas looming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think the bloke is still president and from what i heard the former chairman told the then trustees that the club was not sustainable unless they sold the club to him wirh the guarantee of the clubs future.

Could Truro theoretically drop down to the SWPL or would they have to start from further down? A couple of scenarios: 1) A club going bankrupt or folding in the pyramid must not re-join at its current or 1 step lower (the division it would be relegated into) so as a Step 2 club they would not be allowed to re-join higher than Step 4 2) A club can apply to the FA leagues committee to join the pyramid, normally that is at Step 7, BUT where a case can be made and/or a vacancy exist they can be placed higher, at the moment the highest level with a vacancy is SWPL Step 6 due to Witheridge dropping out The again, with the Step 6 & 7 restructuring for next season, this could be a advantage and good opportunity for Truro to slot into the SWPL Step 6 - they could ask the FA to be placed in the Step 6 league and the FA could well agree to it, albeit a ground or ground-share would have to be in place of course.

Rayvon Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 To much doom and gloom for me at the moment but all will be revealed in 3 hours time but as the Tremeloes would say even the Bad times are good, and I am really looking forward to that pint of cloudy ale later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanfare Posted October 17, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 Truro City's chairman has just issued the following statement "WE HAVE been advised by Jonathan Cox, Helical Retail, that Lidi will be issuing a termination notice which effectively brings the current Treyew Road Lidi/Helical contract to an end and will allow Lidi to seek alternative sites around Truro. Helical have again confirmed that their Development Contract with JIL remains in place until September 2019 which could mean that no building will take place at Treyew Road for the foreseeable future. We will now discuss this latest position with our advisors, League and JIL and decide the best way forward. Finally we wish to make it clear that this latest news does not effect the Stadium for Cornwall or Truro City FC’s role in it.

Lets hope so. You would hope other clubs would want a side in our predicament return to their spiritual home as we would them. All non league clubs should want what is best for each other. I know teams do moan because of our location and the travel they have to do which makes me laugh as they come to us once a season. We have to do the journey every other week so a poor excuse in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
