teflon123 Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Wont be anything that your used to at Falmouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanfare Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Small car park. Small gate onto ground. Dug outs. No spectator facilities whatsoever, save for spectacular views if the mist stays away. Sloping pitch. A real treat! Refreshments, take your own. A nice day for a picnic hopefully.

Sticker Forever Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Hope I’m wrong really Brian, don’t like seeing the smaller teams get battered but I’ve watched both teams twice this season and I think the score will be between 10-15 with Falmouth’s attacking talents. Difficult pitch but hell of a gap between the two teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Deacon Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Whatever happens, let’s hope they don’t pull out beforehand like last season when due to play Porthleven! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fanfare Posted October 4, 2018 Report Share Posted October 4, 2018 Falmouth's biggest Senior Cup score is 13-1. That won't be beaten on Saturday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Odgers Posted October 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Thanks to Looe manager Duncan Sweeney to allow the gate to be opened and let me park on the ground- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiet Man Posted October 6, 2018 Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Have to admire the Looe Town fighting spirit. Never resorted to kicking anything that moved and they had a few lads who could play a bit but at the end of the day the gulf in standards was too great. 12-1 was at the end of the day about right. Good luck to Looe Town Football Club for the season and for what they are achieving on a shoestring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Odgers Posted October 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 6, 2018 Yes full credit to Looe (who have lost all their ECPL games) for fufilling the fixture and not crying off for any reason which seems the easy way out when you know the inevitable. Barely three free kicks for fouls all match and admiration for looking to play the ball to feet even in defence The Looe club seem to be going forward with a clubhouse/refreshment bar in progress on the Barbican Sports Field. Should the CCFA now be looking at reverting to the old system of letting the higher placed league teams joining the competition at a later round.?

James Miller for Falmouth-he did more running than anyone chasing the wind blown ball from the ajoining field time and again. for Looe it was Sam Wiltshire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good sides from a small club, I remember turning out as a 16 year old rookie keeper in an early season E Cornwall league game down at Looe for Saltash Utd, 1966 ish - - - - picking the ball out of the net 9 times!! Hammered by a decent side! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Odgers Posted October 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2018 Can someone confirm the Looe goalscorer-please. It was asumed Noah Phillips on the day but reading the Indy' it names Bradley Woodman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
