Jeff Chambers Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Having beaten St Blazey twice already this season last night was their night. Thought we were the better side 1st half however 2nd half St Blazey did really well and deserved their victory in the end. Didn't see that 2nd half performance coming by Town tbh but that's football. You can't win them all. Now onto Saturday to bounce back with a home match v Brixham. UTT. mattelot, Paul and Town Fan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was that directed at Blazey, or was it a reality check ? A lot of work to do if Falmouth are to progress. Too many silly bookings and a sin binning. As a neutral an enjoyable game for a wet wednesday night, with good support for Falmouth, who were probably the majority of the 333 attendance. 8/10 mattelot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triggs60 Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 Can't see the result on this topic but an absolute shocker for Buckland again last night and things aren't looking easier with Bridgwater and Helston coming up. I remember it being mentioned earlier in the season but with the resources available to Dan, surely there's a bit of pressure creeping in? On the flip-side, I do wonder how much Danny Lewis enjoyed that last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clear signs of improvement not be to sniff at. A good crowd of 333 which is great for local football. Stating the obvious, but St Blazey currently seems a difficult place to get a win, similar to St Austell in SWPL turning over the likes of Helston and Liskeard recently. Different player mentality needed at those grounds at the moment. Railwayman in Exile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With just 10 games left, could they have a late run towards the play offs? Great crowd last night, shows that the Cornish football people come out for the big games. Just a shame that it didn't get played on the original Saturday, could have had double (or even treble) the 333 gate. On a separate note, what has happened to Rio Ward? Thought of as a wonderkid at Blazey last season, doesn't seem to be involved at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted February 1 Report Share Posted February 1 St Blazey 4v1 Falmouth Town. Att.330. A brilliant second half for St Blazey. I didn't see that coming. The second half was brilliant to watch, Falmouth just couldn't get out their own half at times. Clokey with a brilliant finish for his second goal. Top class. The three games with Falmouth this season have seen both sides scoring 5 goals each. A good stat, and one our managers and players should be proud off, we currently have the second best home record in the league. Won 8, drawn 1, lost 3. Of those three defeats two have been 0v1 defeats and they were against Helston and Clevedon. Only Buckland have won by more 0v3. Blaise Park has become a bit of a fortress which is great to see. If we can find the winning formula away from home......look out. Street at home on Saturday.

Paul Posted February 3 Report Share Posted February 3 St Blazey 2v3 Street. Att.162 Well there is the highs and lows of football for you once again. And proof that the Western league is very competitive. St Blazey one up early on. Had a couple more chances but didn't take them. Street equalised before half time. 1v1 at the break. St Blazey much better second half. Looked much more like it. Much better going forward. St Blazey then earnt a penalty which Newton scored to make it 2v1. Street than equalised with one of the best crosses I've seen at Blaise Park in many years. Hit from the touch line right into the box at pace and the Street striker nodded home from probably six yards out. Street then scored in the dying minutes after a brilliant cross field ball out the right found a Street player who cut inside and curled his shot into the far corner of the net. Harsh on St Blazey but have to give Street credit, that was the best performance from an away side this season. Played some good football throughout. Also, it was nice to chat with the Street manager after the match. Very complimentary of our management and took time out chatting with St Blazey supporters. Next up, Millbrook away next Saturday.

Saltash poor today, only performance worse on that pitch was the referee, awful decisions at key times during the match. Following a couple of questionable decisions from the ref, Saltash heads seem to drop and feel the ashes main issue is a lack of experience and leadership on the pitch. This time of the season when pitches are slow and boggy they seem bereft of ideas and lump it long and hope for the best.

Xanie25 Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 After watching Saltash play I could see there is a real sense of frustration felt by supporters. This team has far too many individuals wanting glory but not playing as a team..The wingers in the first half were the only players who looked creative and thought about thier passes. It was disjointed and no leadership shown by Saltash. The defence was not organised and it cost them dearly. I think they are losing fans and support which is more alarming than losing games. Yes a young squad but they need to play as one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamar.man Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 Decided to take in saltash v Oldland as I have enjoyed Saltash games recently, not to much between the two teams, but Oldland created more and took the chances with a couple very good forward players number 11 especially, Saltash seem to struggle against teams who are more street wise and in their faces, being young no excuse as Oldland had even younger team, crowd announced as 100 but seemed a lot less than that from what I could see, Triggs60 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis and Krac also had a much larger budget than the current manager which was not sustainable for the survival of the club in the longer term. Neither Lewis or Krac wanted to stick around with a reduced budget so left. Hence the appointment of Macca and a more sustainable budget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The accountants clearly and strongly said bankrupt by Christmas 2023 if it continued. So we'd be like various other clubs nationwide this season who didn't heed the warning. Broke, folded and asking the NLS for the next move (probably step 7) having destroyed the natural pathway from juniors upwards. The club isn't just the 1st team. It's a whole club with a strong junior link. mattelot and The Town Man 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ground isnt far off now being step 4 under ground grading and we know having checked with Alan Skuse the assessor what's needed and it's mostly nice things to have but not needed for step 5 or lower. Of course its disappointing the league position but we knew give the start it was always going to be tough. I utterly disagree it should be just about 1sts. That then means for the upcoming 16 to 18 Yr old lads that it's one team or look elsewhere. There is active progression this season with 1st 2nd and 3rds with some coming up or dropping if injured.

Very fair points Phil. Firstly, I think the one club approach is the way to go. That is a reserve / development side, women's team and teams for young people, as well as the flagship WL side. All matter. All bring more people into a club, not just players but those around them too. Moreover, the first task of any committee or management structure, is to ensure the long term future of the club, so there is a club to play for, or watch, in 5, 10, 15 years time. Ground improvements - clear to see and very welcome. I'd say, beyond the toilets, the clubhouse needs updating as its looking very tired. Is anything planned for this area? Ambition? After the way the excellent squad of last year dissipated, I am not yet convinced on this one. However, of course, a young squad is a work-in-progress and there will be many bumps in the road, but there are signs of progress being made. There are already players I love watching on my (once again) regular visits to the Waterways ( Ethan Wright, Tyler L-H, Keiran O'Melia et al). The trouble is this will not go unnoticed elsewhere and if the club don't show ambition others will lure them and others away. Sustainability - already alluded too. That said, it is interesting to see local clubs (to me) Callington Town and Launceston both improving steadily with younger hungry mostly local boys in the side. Can a more locally focussed side be assembled at Step 5? With its location, Saltash does have a good catchment to draw from, but are there enough players of Step 5 standard to attempt this? I have enjoyed many enjoyable afternoons at the Kimberly / Waterways in recent seasons. My personal circumstances having changed, so SUFC is a place I could / should be going to regularly again. It has been pleasing to say the welcome and feel about the place feels positive ATM. It'll take time, but I think the Ashes will be a club to keep an eye on over the next two to three years. I wish them well. Ian Pethick and GRTourist 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
