Dave Deacon Posted October 13, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2018 A win looked more than a possibility when Dan Rooney levelled the game three minutes into the second half. A soft goal conceded from a corner 8 ,minutes from time killed it! Still to come after the goal was firstly Ed Palmer red carded for a wild kick, then Noah Keats red carded for foul and being the last man. Harsh when possibly the Hemel striker had started in an offside position. Then the management pair got sent from the dug out as pure frustration built up after not just the ref's decisions but also the scoreline. Attendance was 86!

Ray ,do you honestly think the hoardes will flock back,when they return to Treyew Rd. The rot had set in before,Masters made the disastrous decision to move to Torquay. You will be lucky to average 200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie Balls Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 What I don't understand is why the management team left Taunton to come to Truro. Taunton currently sit 5th in the division below Truro and win more than they lose. On the other hand Truro are in complete disarray on and off the field and can't buy a win. I just don't get it. ?

They must be off their nuts then surely. If Masters didn't move to Torquay what should he have done. Honest question. What were the alternatives.

Archie Balls Posted October 14, 2018 Report Share Posted October 14, 2018 I'm a Cornish Soccer fan and I'm proud to see Cornish teams go as far as they can up the pyramid. However, the way it is going then Truro will be back playing local football within the next few years. Not a bad thing for local fans but as a club at least they can say that they had a go. Hope they stay up and end up back in Cornwall. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leigh and Michael have backed themselves and believe that they can get Truro City up the league. They have inherited an unfit side, - one, not of their making. The three lads that came in yesterday will strengthen the squad and there will be more comings and goings in the next week or two no doubt. I did not see the 2:1 defeat coming at all yesterday. Truro City deserved to win on every count and looked like a side that would work their way up the league table. All they need is time, two or three more quality players and a bit of luck.

He also explained his reasons at the meeting last week, and his take on the team he inherited. Apparently only 3 pre-season training sessions plus the friendlies, not great preparation, and signings he wouldn't have made. So he knew the score and that it would take time. He said they were not far off and as Piran said the performance deserved more so hopefully they are getting there. Hopefully we will come home and gates will be similar to last season. Will TISA be there and were they there on Thursday or was it only Petes clowns as was suggested somewhere, of which I must be one along with a good many other decent City supporters.

superdario Posted October 17, 2018 Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 Don't think Rocky would improve us that much, a couple of decent full backs might. There are plenty of people who would love to be back at Treyew road for this winter, I hope it happens and we can turn it into fortress treyew and get back up the league where we belong.

So how many is ,plenty.???? First couple of games back with the interest,will maybe get around 500. After the novelty has worn off we will be back to the old faithful,around 300. If results dont improve,then winter sets in,crowds will decline,even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club will have to do a massive (and I mean massive) PR job to entice back all that have over the summer lost their enthusiasm for the club!

superdario Posted October 17, 2018 Report Share Posted October 17, 2018 I suspect it will be the same old 350-400 but that's better than 100 at Torquay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he did play,the long ball game ,meant the poor lad was up against huge defenders,and never had a chance.He worked hard and ran his socks off chasing lost causes. He is better than that,and he made the right decision going to Taunton. Leigh Robinson would have him back at TCFC,in a flash,but contracts rule that out. Dont rule out a return in the future, if Leigh stays in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superdario Posted October 18, 2018 Report Share Posted October 18, 2018 Don't have a problem with Rocky, he certainly gave his all and put himself about. My point was he doesn't suit the way this team has been playing in recent years which is the long ball from the back. I also don't think Niall is a full back and I suspect he doesn't think so either. I certainly don't think our players are dire and a win will bring some much needed confidence back. We aren't that far off winning some games and creeping back up the league, nobody gets relegated in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
