What a shocker at Bickland- after celebrating like they had wrapped up the league on Wednesday- dropping 3 pts today may make them think twice regarding screaming and shouting about being on fire again in the future!

Maybe thinking they are better than they are? Or thinking winning the league is easy (without any member of their squad ever winning it!!)

 

That is exactly my thoughts although they have no chance of winning it.

Whatever happened to Bodmin yesterday? Didn't see that coming after watching them play superbly the week before although I did think the defence were a bit slow and easily  beaten especially on the deck. Still nobody wins anything in September so it's upward and onward Still think they will win the league comfortably.

A rare visit to Poltair Park for me to watch The Lilywhites run out comfortable winners against The Camels.

The score was 2 - 0 but if St.Austell put away a few of their many chances then the scoreline could have been much higher.

St Austell better team, on the day - and worthy winners. Play good football and have real quality from 1 - 15  

You say comfortable and many chances, but the Camels keeper had actually very little to do - St Austell had ample good possession but it must be a slight worry that it did not materialise into actual goals or clear cut chances. It took well into the second half for St Austell to score and not forgetting the Camels had a perfectly good goal disallowed at 1-0 and hit the crossbar. 

Considering the Camels are a middle league team, playing with a very makeshift team at the moment, against a full St Austell squad hoping for top three - I think Camels would have taken 2-0 before the game. 

Quick mention on the officials - thought the Ref was  very good and even - BUT - the lineman on the top side (I’m assuming senior as he did the subs) was appalling - and at this level should he really be telling the St Austell left back (Wattsy) - ‘tell Giler and Tom they’re playing the striker onside all the time’ - despite giving nearly every offside - even the St Austell faithful were joking about him - apparently he’s from St Austell area as well. 

Also slightly telling was that the St Austell fans spent a lot of time enjoying the tweet updates on the Tavvy v Bodmin game, for some reason. 

St Austell start scoring - they will be top 3 come May.

I always understood that this forum was for comments on football and closely related matters and not personal comments aimed at other users !

Unfortunately Al you've only yourself to blame mate. You've slated everything  to do with Falmouth for various seasons and you kinda have to expect it im afraid. Various  individuals have invited you to hear your  opinion but a no show???

But you have to admit a large proportion of your posts are aimed towards the club and so perhaps it’s time instead of using this forum to air your issues, problems and grievances to the club DIRECT  so an amicable ending can be arrived at for all concerned.

Well said dave ! ?

It won't happen Dave, he didn't even turn up when offered free entry, food and drink. He isn't going to turn up for a meeting where he has to go out of his way. Big Al seems the sort of bloke who would begrudge you a cuppa if you went round to his

Surely Danny deserves the Man of the match title. His hat trick (in fifteen minutes) before half time were goals 3,4 and 5 and thus a major factor in setting up the game and disheartening the opposition, he also as you point out was integral in further scoring. By the time Blatchford scored goals, at the fag-end of the game, the result was already settled and poor old spurs a spent force
