Ian Pethick Posted August 3, 2023 Report Share Posted August 3, 2023 Some pretty interesting looking games amongst those ties as well. Would think Falmouth v Exmouth will be a big gate, "F-Troop v Muff Town Casuals." Given the close geographical proximity of these matches, could moving the kick off times around to enable some sort of "FA Cup mini groundhop weekend" have been considered?

Within the rules, it does state that the game can be played at an alternative time/day (Friday-Sunday) if mutually agreed between the two competing clubs.

Both Sides of the Tamar Posted August 5, 2023 Report Share Posted August 5, 2023 Buckslook strong?

panda Posted August 5, 2023 Report Share Posted August 5, 2023 Not a ggod day for East Cornwall clubs in the FA Cup. Saltash Millbrook and Torpoint all losing. A worry for Millbrook who lost 9-1. Seventeen goals conceded in 2 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philheybrookbay Posted August 5, 2023 Report Share Posted August 5, 2023 Much better from Ashes today , the weather didn't make it easy for either side and two reds both of which years ago wouldn't have been more than a yellow. Its so called 'progress'. Nice of the FA to promise both clubs forms to use for today's game. Still nothing when I got home and I know Barnie sec Jane had nothing either. The so called Premier competition and we're scrabbing around for ruddy official forms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Town Man Posted August 6, 2023 Report Share Posted August 6, 2023 Falmouth Town 2. Exmouth Town 1. Falmouth Town belied their lower league status with a convincing display yesterday against their Southern League opponents, despite the absence of influential captain James Ward, Bradley Leivers and Ollie Walker. The team being taken by Town Legend Tommy Matthews in the absence of manager Andy Westgarth. With a strong wind at their back, Exmouth took an early lead when the Falmouth defence couldn't deal with a cross into the box and keeper Morgan Coxhead was beaten low to his left. However, soon after, Falmouth started to control possession and for the majority of the half totally outplayed Exmouth with some fine inter-passing amongst their talented midfield 3 of Andreas Callejas-Stayne, Jack Webber and Jared Sims. Sims in particular stood out with his perfect first touch and one or two-touch football which really made Falmouth tick. Exmouth defended well whilst Falmouth seemed to struggle a little with the final ball and the half finished at 1-0 to the visitors. The 2nd half continued in the same vein although Exmouth looked dangerous on the break with their pacEy numbers 7 & 11. (Sorry but didn't catch their names). The turn-around seemed to come with the introduction of Luke Barner at around the hour mark. His tireless running with and without the ball seemed to unsettle the Exmouth side and things started to happen. Falmouth then introduced Cam Hutchison and went to three at the back with Callejas-Stayne dropping back to Centre-half. Within minutes, Falmouth had equalised. After another attack, the ball was cleared to Tom Annear who rifled a magnificent shot in to the top corner from outside the box. Falmouth then went in search of the victory. After a brilliant piece of build-up play, the ball was worked out to Alex Wharton on the left and he crossed to the near post where Luke Brabyn had got in front of his marker. Brabyn got a touch on the ball which was enough to send it goal-wards, beating the Exmouth keeper. Falmouth were then understandably put under some pressure by Exmouth and dropped a little deeper but held on quite comfortably to claim a great win. An excellent team performance masterminded by Tommy Matthews whose substitutions changed the game. UP THE TOWN!!

It's filmed to give St Blazey supporters who can't be there for what ever reason, a glimpse of how the game went and capture our goals at least. It's not easy capturing what's happing at the other end all the time but we try.

The highlights are quite entertaining (especially the supporters small-talk!) and serve a purpose, but could be improved maybe if filmed around the halfway line rather than behind the goal.

The whole episode is strange with Torpoint having a player who's head has clearly been turned now deciding he wants to stay, and Buckland's assistant manager walking away after being denied the signing of a goalkeeper to (possibly) replace their existing goalkeeper who is highly rated and on a contract.
