I'm sure Rappo can confirm, I beleive he was a part of the Malabar team that dominated junior football for a few years. I think he was only a young boy then, but still scored alot of goals.

Dave Bartlam Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Best Keeper... Difficult one to be honest as I didn't play a great deal in the Mining League... Alan Buckley I would say Defender - Brett Wasden, like Bundi says was immense Midfielder - Crikey now you're asking... Striker - Duane Britten. I only ever played for Portreath and Trevenson in Mining League, couldn't remember many of those games as I've ages since and my memory is a bit wank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plainlazy Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 Dave price and Adam Jewell weren’t bad at all. I’d also say Duane up tops. And Gareth caddy was more than a handful on his day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin Eddy Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Steve van evalingen in goal for holmans.

RAPPO Posted January 14, 2019 Report Share Posted January 14, 2019 Appreciate the vote Dave! Hope you’re well mate. Roy is spot on, started playing for Malabar at 13 and remember those games against Pool SC and other good really tough teams!! But as Ralph correctly said I only played two and a half seasons in the mining league, went Combo at 16 and SWL at 18 until I was 35 apart from being reinstated a few times to help old mates out at the end of their seasons. Enjoyed a few seasons in the Trelawny league at the end before the knees packed in as well but there’s much more worthy players out there that have graced the mining and FHL more than me!! Some cracking players and characters in junior football over the years 👍⚽️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 17, 2019 Report Share Posted January 17, 2019 3 hours ago, Fanfare said: And Rappo's Falmouth-Helston League days Making @Mr Bean -8 years old whilst Rappo was 16/17 Think.the object of this topic is being missed, I was looking for players of past and present to reminisce about players they had played along side or played against in the old "Mining league / Fal - Helston" , era. Before it was changed into the "Trelawney League" format. Now I know Mr bean is very fond of Rappo, but he's missed the point of this exercise. 🙄 Now I know @RAPPO will have played in those leagues at some point in the early/late 80s possibly 90s but Mr Bean would not of played or watched him back then.

Fanfare Posted January 18, 2019 Report Share Posted January 18, 2019 @RAPPO played Falmouth-Helston League for Frogpool and Trispen around 2008 and before the inception of the Trelawny League. I thought it was to reminisce about the players of yesteryear as opposed to the age of when a forum poster watched the legend that is Sir @RAPPO of Cornwall. 🙄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
