THEMAGPIE Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 Been made aware this morning that Penryn, Mullion and Pendeen are applying to join the St Piran’s league next season, Penryn and Mullion I can understand but Pendeen I just can’t wrap my head around it? I personally think it’s ludicrous how teams lying mid table in let’s say (a very mediocre league at best) can be considered for promotion into a higher tier of football, I’m just interested to see other opinions on the matter.

It's where they are at the end of May not the end of December that counts. JonColenzo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cornish football for you I’m afraid. Take St cleer, went all the way from duchy 1 to east Cornwall finishing out of the promotion places every year. Now they are mid table and applying again to go up. Never earn the right to go up but always get it. Ludicrous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually they'll get found out and be relegated if they can’t hack it at a higher level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foul Throw 3 Posted January 3, 2022 Report Share Posted January 3, 2022 If you’re gonna sling mud it’s not at St Cleer. St Dennis Reserves came rock bottom of the Duchy Prem in the 18/19 season, but went UP to The St Piran League East, up two divisions instead of down one. Have been the worst side in that league since, and only saved by Null and Void. Regularly don’t fulfil fixtures. With no Liskeard Res or Thirds, or Lanreath anymore, St Cleer may be trying to go up via this method to improve their attraction to new players in a large catchment area.

Rovers10 Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 I think you have an opinion about pendeen in everything they do like when you tried to cause shit about Wayne coming back and as you can see still 15 games left for pendeen so who knows what will happen it’s still a long season yet and they are aloud to apply and they know where they have to finish so have a look into it before running you’re mouth all the time themagpie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just an observation with Pendeen is that I don’t personally think they are in a position to advance into another (higher) league, looks like they are constantly struggling to field a team and with no reserve team to help out either the extra strains of higher standard opposition may take its toll. I just think the system is fractured and eventually you end up losing Clubs completely which is definitely not what we all want.

Rovers10 Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 How have they been struggling to field a team the had one game over xmas and brought players in which I think every team dose and in fact they have a second team coming next year and new club house and changing rooms and for this seasons of far from over didn’t realise the league had finished and going to a higher league will attracted players and a better standard and from the outside you seem to know a lot about the club from the outside that’s my problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
