Parkway another postponement.  Going to be an awful lot of games to catch up on at bolitho.

Between Parkway and Truro, there are 23 home matches to play in the 15 remaining weeks of the season.

One consolation is that teams really don't like making long midweek trips to Plymouth.

On the plus plenty of home games for parkway to put a good run together and finish season strong.

Yes, home form is play off worthy.

Taken points of Chesham and Truro. Beaten play off contenders Salisbury, Tiverton and Hayes  Just need to get the games played !

Just got to hope the weather stops raining all the time. It’s warm enough for pitches to start drying out of it does stop.

Hendon 2 - 2 Truro City

[Ian Pethick]

Hendon 2 Truro 2

Not sure if was 2 points dropped today for City, or 1 gained on what is usually a happy hunting ground. Took the lead early on through Connor Riley- Lowe (scoring for the 3rd successive game), and Rocky Neal shortly afterwards hit the underside of the bar from close range. Hendon came into the game though carving a couple of openings, and deservedley went in at half time level. They took the lead shortly after the break, but lost concentration almost quickly afterwards and allowed Ben Adlesbury to nod in from a set piece. Have to say that it was a pretty flat performance from City against a hard working, well organised Hendon side, who didn't really threaten much going forward. Significant that both of Truro's normally potent front pair were subbed off. Neal was his usual tireless self, and certainly showed plenty of willingness to chase lost causes, but Tyler Harvey was pretty anonymous both in general play and in front of goal.

Truro definitely had a drop in form and performance levels lately .  Also don’t understand why Brett and Sullivan can’t seem to get in the team also rated both . 
 

did hear a rumour today that Truro new ground won’t be ready for next season and there are  very very desperate discussions with parkway for another season at bolitho.

Danny Sullivan limped off against Chesham a few weeks ago with, what looked like, a hamstring injury. Possible he's not completely over it.

Someone going to be digging very  deep into the finances to persuade parkway to allow them another year. Parkway basically dictate what they want. Not sure there another option for them to go .

Parkway have them over a barrel - don!t think they are keen at all on extending the present arrangement into a third season.

Truro play twice at Bolitho before Parkway return home on Tues 24th January. Parkway management must always be anxious about City playing, and then rendering the surface unusable for their own matches.
