BrummyBarry Posted April 10, 2023 Report Share Posted April 10, 2023 Well done Helston for winning the senior cup for the first time in I think almost 90 years great achievement I thought when first goal went in it would be floodgates but a really good game Thecupfootballblogger and John Thomas Allcock 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsman10 Posted April 11, 2023 Report Share Posted April 11, 2023 Great win for Helston deserved the trophy. . Noticed on social media Steve Massey had the trophy tucked away on his beside table like he personally won it. Surly Matt cusuack and the team deserve that honour first?? . Just seemed bit odd.

Surprised he didn't do a John Terry, appear in full Helston kit and charge to the front and pick the trophy up.😀 Luke Gibbons, Gary Hocking, Town Fan and 1 other 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Mousehole had a good 300+ gate and although just over the Tamar Truro had 691 How does that compare to attendances over the last 10 years or so? I am assuming that in the days when the Senior Cup and Junior Cup Finals were a double header, both games counted towards the figure. Always remember the Junior Cup curtain raiser being a large and particularly boisterous crowd, sometimes more so than the headline Senior Cup Final.

It is lovely to see an ex-pro so excited about the local game and seeing his club win the CSC after an 80+ years wait. Let Steve and Helston FC enjoy this moment. Well done everyone in Blue!

baldy Posted April 12, 2023 Report Share Posted April 12, 2023 You only have to listen to Steve speak to know what this cup means. He’s wanted it for a very long time. Listened to his commentary for a lot of the SF and all the Final. You could tell what it meant to him. Having said that, the only WL teams I have seen have been in the SCup, both SFs and the final. Not overly impressed. Both Sides of the Tamar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck to Helston a hell of a lot of work has gone on off the pitch in recent times to get the club where it is.

I’ve not always been a fan of his methods when managing, but on the whole I love Steve’s passion for the game. The CSC win 🏆 is a result of years of hard work by many, often behind the scenes, as well as those around current first team. Helston do a lot more right than given credit for! The fixation with Steve Massey is a strange one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
