Adlestrop Posted October 10, 2018 Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 Good to see Neil being features in the next Mag.I've been thinking for some time now,and meant to have raised this topic previously. I consider Neil to be the best Cornish all-rounder in my time for football and cricket:and I'm hard pushed to think of anyone else coming closeAnyone agree?

Adlestrop Posted October 10, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2018 Fair point,Mike:a glaring omission on my part ! Shaun played both for the highest Leagues.However,Neil would surely have graced the SW Leaague had he not been so admirably loyal to the Tinners.

Neil's skill on the ball and his zeal for the game could have seen him playing at a much higher level but for his loyalty to his Dad Steve and to St Just FC. Hard opponent on the field and a very nice guy off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Deacon Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Neil’s featured on the front of the latest CORNISH SOCCER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Richards Pz Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Maurice Weeks played soccer and cricket for Cornwall, I believe also captained both. Jeff Edwards was another two codes player. Both played for Penzance. Congratulations to Neil, a bit of a rarity in this day and age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAPPO Posted October 11, 2018 Report Share Posted October 11, 2018 Congrats to Neil, great achievement in this day and age of football. Don’t see loyalty like that too often. Superb player technically that could have played much higher if not for his loyalty. Hoops was more known for his batting but he was an excellent footballer as well, brilliant bloke to have in the dressing room, some great laughs over the years. Should have played for Cornwall at both in my opinion, not just his illustrious cricket career ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
