leedsunited Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 I have touched on this earlier in a different thread, what the hell are Penzance doing ? A club of their stature being made fools of . Big Danny O will sort that rubbish out . Rayvon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winston Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 The same Danny O that has joined Perranporth? Did people really think this guy would back up his words? Offering unproven kids £50 a game and holidays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PzFan Posted August 11, 2019 Report Share Posted August 11, 2019 There was a post on the twitter account last night to say Nick was no longer involved at the club. I can't recall the exact wording. I replied to the message asking what was going on. Subsequently this post from the club was deleted. No idea what is happening back home in Pz but it's embarrassing to say the least. Knowing what has been going on behind the scenes re potential mergers, the last thing we need is more off field turmoil. Anthony Reynolds has done a good job in recruiting players over the summer. Hope he gets the chance to get things going on the pitch. FootieMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Mead Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 I'm not in a position within PZ AFC to make any official comment on the "goings-on" there but am obviously concerned that we have all been duped by a very plausible "intruder". I know that as much scrutiny as possible was carried out before the appointment and there was nothing to suggest he was not a genuine, good-intentioned person who was willing and able to help the Club to go forward. I cannot guess what his real intention was but would warn that he is now known to have been "sniffing around" other football, rugby and cricket clubs in Cornwall and possibly in Devon as well! 11 minutes ago, burt said: What a joke!

Ian Pethick Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 For me, there is nothing funny to be found in this episode. Unfortunately, non league football up and down the country is littered with these sort of stories. Most clubs at this level are constantly on the look out for new revenue streams and investors, so it's a case of "there but for the grace of God" for many.

RAPPO Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Can’t see how anyone would take pleasure out of a great club like Penzance being duped by a con man. Let’s be honest, any club would be delighted to take on board an individual promising the world for their club whether it’s trackies, polos, bags, boots or a healthy player budget, we all want the best for our team. In reality there’s not many i.e Steve Masseys at Helston who actually put their money where their mouth is and improve the facilities as well as attracting the best local players on the pitch and actually care for the club. Hope the Magpies can regroup and get some player loyalty when they need it most. Penlee Park is still one of the best football venues in the county to play your footy and are a massive sleeping giant of Cornish football. Penzance won’t be the first or last club to be conned, remember a guy rocking up at Man Utd in the 80’s doing keepy uppies on the pitch at OT and smashing a ball into the net promising about 10 million at the time, crowd cheering him on, had bout £50 quid in his bank account after being declared bankrupt! Plenty of these big time Charlie’s around just bad luck to PZ for getting mugged off by one of them. Good luck for a good season to all the hard working people at Penzance 👍⚽️👏🏼 Thecupfootballblogger, Soccer Follower, Martin Eddy and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAPPO Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 I’m sure Reno will do a great job with some help and commitment, wish you and all those characters at Penzance a good season Charlie, like Tommy said it’s a great club to play for with some lovely genuine football people and a cracking set up. (did notice Penlee Park could do with some nice box nets though! ) 😁👍⚽️ Had some brilliant times and memories there, be nice to see the club back where it belongs. Tom would be brilliant at whatever he does, not sure I would be much help but we would have a laugh anyway! Good luck to Reno, Stevo, Greeter and everyone down there for a good season 👍⚽️ B Manning, Rudders and Tommy Matthews 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Pethick Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Are you on commission for selling box nets Rappo? You mentioned them in the podcast last week as well.

RAPPO Posted August 12, 2019 Report Share Posted August 12, 2019 Haha you would think WOTP!! 😀 Just an obsession of mine really, did notice while we are on the subject that despite all the great work gone on at Parkway and money spent your nets are out the arc!!! Get rid of those old triangle stanchions and get some nice yellow and blue box nets up quick!
