SON OF LINEKER Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Nigel @Soccerfollower,this isn't the first time this has happened in recent seasons,such a shame that Cornish amateur football has to lose a proud club with a great history. Hopefully they can rise from the ashes once again,I have so many good memories of hard local derbies when I was with TMS,you always knew what you were getting when you went to Chacewater. Let's hope the modern trend of apathy towards playing organised sport doesn't hinder a resurrection of some sorts. Steve P RAPPO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccer Follower Posted January 25 Report Share Posted January 25 Brendan,Ralph/Steve, Absolutely gutted to read this report .As you say it has happened before,a few years ago,when it wasvery difficult to field settled teams.I am assuming it is the same issue again with a lack of committed players. I am no longer around to offer my help and experience but gone are the days of many of the players coming from the village itself.I played there with 4 Davis brothers,3 Bennetts brothers,3 Pascoe's and a few other pairs of brothers. Unfortunately,for various reasons,players do not have the commitment of years ago and without that,the management must feel that they are fighting against the tide.When clubs like Chacewater subside,it is a slippery slope for cornish football. rgkeep, Asterix and RAPPO 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wont be the last club to fold, due to such reasons. Commitment isn’t there anymore, and Having a consistent squad is a thing of the past.

Springfield Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 They did this a few years ago got a few divisions high then folded. No doubt will be back in division 4 next league then go up a few leagues again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they apply it's down to the clubs at the AGM as to whether they get voted back in or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will there be just one relegated from the appropriate divisions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St day finished 54 ish points behind new inn titans last season and finished in the relegation, new inn were top and they ended up in the same league this year, with stronger teams dropping down. I am not saying that it is a factor but it makes it a tough long season for clubs, especially for us at St day regularly field 5 players from last seasons under 16's team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Bennetts Posted January 29 Report Share Posted January 29 Gutted but it was inevitable unfortunately. Spent nearly all my playing days at Chacewater. Sad times but hopefully they can bounce back 😥 Soccer Follower 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
