Adlestrop Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 Surely to goodness Combo/Trelawney and Duchy/ECPL MUST merge.It seems this is CCFA's wishes-so why can't they force this?They have steamrollered everything else!

Mr Justice Posted May 24, 2019 Report Share Posted May 24, 2019 So teams have left the Combo to join a league which is basically still the combo plus a Trelawny League side. Will the winners take promotion to SWPL Premier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coady-9 Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 I’m sorry but what a joke this is. Fair play to st mawgan for taking the jump up bit for years st Stephen was close to go up a league then we done it and won div 1 back to back same as foxhole deservedly going up always on the rule only one up from duchy now two teams jump straight in to this league I just don’t agree with it all.

ECPL Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Can't blame clubs for jumping ship. Now lets see that means in the East there are 16 teams 10 of which are reserve teams. Which means 6 teams able to get grants. Unfortunately just as before reserve teams can't get promotion so what was the point. The only word I can think of is 'suckered' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will the winners take promotion to SWPL Premier? That's how it has ended up but obviously, that was not the original plan. Because "end-to-end" travel was something the interested teams found unacceptable, the only way to fulfill the FA mandate was to run with East & West divisions. The Combo & ECPL committees were reluctant to join forces to run the Step 7 League in the first place, so the current situation has evolved as the solution. I appreciate it seems harsh on the Leagues below Step 7 but - with the co-operation which I know exists - there is no reason why each cannot retain their identity and continue to provide competitive football in Cornwall; that's what ALL Leagues were created to do. 4 hours ago, ECPL said: Can't blame clubs for jumping ship.

All Referee Promotion Candidates will now be tested on Competition Rules of all Leagues and Tournaments that they officiate in. They'll be published on the Full Time site when it becomes active. The clubs will get a soft copy with the AGM calling notice either tonight or tomorrow. The League will be paperless as far as possible but there will be an exchange of team sheets before the game. Kick off times will be confirmed at the AGM but I wouldn't expect any change from the current times. There are a couple of referee initiatives that will allow for early or Friday night kick offs to hopefully free up some referees for the lower leagues in an attempt to alleviate the shortage for them.

Referee Posted May 25, 2019 Report Share Posted May 25, 2019 Thanks Steve, Good idea to have midweek and Friday fixtures as most clubs have floodlights. Earlier kick offs are good for the Referee shortages and also allow for people to watch two matches and for Clubs avoiding local clashes (Newquay/Godolphin or St Austell/StBlazey).

Once I have the SWPL fixtures, the 'unavailability' dates from the clubs and the County Cup dates I'll be getting on with them. The Clubs have been asked if they want Boxing Day fixtures etc.etc. and where possible local derby games will be fitted in. There's also a Ground Hop event over the Easter period as well to consider.
