hedgerow Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 Does seem rather strange, thought the ground was being dismantled. If not, why is Truro FC using Plainmoor ? I am sure this will be the first question to be asked. Hope the supporters gets some answers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somersetspur Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 Something aint right. Masters have had only one of these fans forum before,in his 6 years as owner. That was when he introduced himself as the saviour of the Club. Now after taking the Club out of the county,which see the team without a win at so-called home,and attendences falling like a lead ballon. We have this meeting called. Think the owners have their backs up against the wall,and did'nt expect the backlash,with the move to Torquay. I think there will be lots of begging from the Club trying to persuade supporters to start getting behind the team,blah,blah,blah. The new manager,will say the team needs the support ,etc,etc. The Club took for granted the big and vocal support the team got at away games,and that too has been on the decline. The whole club is crumbling,because of the way its being,run. It will take a massive U turn by the owners,to try and restore some interest and passion into the Club. I cant see that happening,but it is desperate measures in desperate times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleased to see that you and your TISA colleagues will finally have the opportunity of facing the owners face to face and venting your strong opinions to them instead of on social media! I must say it is very strange that Treyew Road continues to be maintained when, supposedly, the Club has been evicted. Do you think the Lidl development has fallen through and therefore there is an outside chance of football returning? Perhaps all will be revealed at the Forum!

Please tell me what Masters has done for Truro City. I will tell you a few. Six years ago,Masters and Perryman saved the Club. Since then. Lost the Reserve team. Lost the Ladies team. Lost the Youth set up. Lost the Truro Community. Failed with SilverBow. Became a Club with no home.Took the Club to another County. Got rid of many loyal and passionate Truro stalwarts.

stevieb Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 Well hopefully all the supporters of Truro will get the answers they all deserve , a big club from Cornwalls only city , , PR hasn't been good and supporters divided , looking in from the outside it is a soap opera , no ground , home games Torquay , low match support bad press , supporters chairman against each other . Truro fans have had some good highs but recently a lot of lows , and how many fans from other teams miss playing against Truro reserves , or seeing a cup final at the ground , cracking stadium , lots of parking ,easy to get to and a large bar area , what a waste , hope you all get what you deserve as fans and not what a few people think the club should get , Good luck from me .

MOUNTAINEER Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Our wonderful away support on Saturday at Concord was NIL - There were 8 exiles, 3 from Bedworth, 2 from Luton, 2 from Sutton and myself from Wycombe. the main reason for this is that the club has never been interested in how the supporters get to games, those interested last week couldn't go there was no shared transport or drivers - I saw Mr Masters interview on you tube where he said Ben Geering was the only player he made money from transferring, that has been suggested many times as being £10,000, surely as that was part of club funds away travel for those in the far west could be subsidised so those interested could travel and hire the necessary transport. On Saturday my transport and ground admission (£7 concession) cost over £50 now with the results as they are I must be mad to continue my association with Truro City that stretches back 75 years.It was difficult shouting the team on when out numbered by the home crowd 234 to 8. I will be in Portugal when the meeting takes place, I hope it goes well and we enjoy the resulting answers.somehow I am not that convinced.
