St Austell are serious!


Recommended Posts

Interesting. Agree with others here, can't see these guys taking this job just to stick around in the Cornish part of the Peninsula League. 

Most people seem to think that the playing squad at Poltair needs a shake up, can see an influx of young players from the Torbay/South Devon area..

The wait I understand is very soon to be over as AFC St Austell are about to announce Lee Hodges and Chris Todd as their new management team for 2019-20!

 

Could see a few ex City players wearing white shirts next season if that's the case then.

Perhaps the fact 3 Clubs from Devon have now taken promotion in the last two years they think they are being left behind. With Buckland  in there as well and a few clubs in Somerset the The Western League is being dragged into the South West. Can`t wait for next season to start. UTT.

Can't get promoted if you're ground isn't up to the adequate standard

Will a promoted club have time granted to get the requirements done or is the dispensation allowance only for the initial season of the revamped SWPL?

I’ve got the answer:-

A team with a G Grade would be given to March 31st the following season to reach grade F

Basically a club in the FA Vase will have the G grade already

Also :-

If the promoted club doesn't do the required work by March? Do they get demoted?

The answer to this is :- Yes

Also, currently Clubs without a G like Dobwalls get 2 years to reach G rather than the normal 1
If they were to win lge in season 1 they could not go up.

So, the way I see it, from 2021 a club cannot use the lack of a ground grading to avoid promotion. But they can apply to NOT be promoted on the grounds of “finance, travel or security of tenure”. 

Question is, who gets to decide if a club has inadequate finances or what is considered to be excessive travelling for that club ?

Only the once can they use this reason.

The FA presumably!
