John Mead Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 If any more Trelawny League Clubs are interested in joining the Combination League for next season, would they please make contact with Lester Thomas (Secretary) before 6.00pm on Wednesday 29th May. Contact details: 01209 219239 or lesterthomas1710@ hotmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy D Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Bit more info would be good. Ie what are the plans, which teams are already in combo Etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mead Posted May 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 I don't have the up-to-date details because I'm not the contact for Clubs but I believe that Penwith Exiles, Penryn Reserves, Helston 3rds and Wendron 3rds had applied. If those four are still going ahead, the Combo would need a minimum of four more teams to achieve a viable League - in my opinion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I mean is what is the future? Will combo & Trelawney merge in a years time as suggested? If so surely it's a no brainer for Trelawney prem teams to apply.

#sausagefingers Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Isn't combo and trelawny ranked at the same step now ? If so you would just promote the relevant number from trelawny league...gonna be alot of shuffling either way.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so you would just promote the relevant number from trelawny league...gonna be alot of shuffling either way.. Yes and no. Yes they are both recreational league but, as they have been for a long time, they are placed in a pecking order within County Rules (Rule 3). The long standing promotion arrangements between the tow Leagues mean only 2 get promoted as of right. Any others can then apply to fill any vacancies that there may be. This is where the Combination may have a problem as if enough don't apply (and nobody can make them) to make the Combination viable their options are limited. Time is now of the essence so I would like to think that the Combination are already having background discussions with the Trelawny about the possibilities as both leagues are affected whatever the outcome..

John Mead Posted May 27, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Combo management committee are meeting on Wednesday. Things should become clearer after that - hopefully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave James Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Trelawny have not been contacted by Combo Committee yet .....I personally think it's much simpler to join up now ...rather that prolong the inevitable !! On a side note are clubs aware the match fees are increasing for referees to £30 plus travel in Combo , only £20 in Trelawny ! But that's just me being sensible ...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbarry Posted May 27, 2019 Report Share Posted May 27, 2019 Seems like the combo league are waiting for everything to be done for them, can’t see the combo committee members being able to sort this mess out. I think they should merge the combo with Trelawny and have one committee . Also how will it work with players signing on? For instance could a player sign for ; Falmouth SWPL , Penryn St Piran, Pendeen Combo and Holmans Trelawny ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sijames Posted May 28, 2019 Report Share Posted May 28, 2019 Better the devil you know, combination league will be non existent very soon, Trelawny Prem will feed the St Pirans league and vice versa so just ride it out and let the combination clubs drop down to Trelawny prem and then shuffle the Trelawny leagues at the AGM (or beforehand) = JOB DONE!

Once the situation is clear, they will no doubt make a sensible decision which is in the best interest of the Clubs. There is, as yet, nothing substantial to discuss.
