Brackley 2 - 2 Truro
Truro win on Penalties

View attachment 67304

I thought Cooke had won it for us with quite a late goal but they got an even later one, they then netted 2 minutes into extra time, it took forgotten man Keats to score a last gasp equalizer to bring us into penalties which we went on to win!

We face Welling in the FA Cup 4th qualifying rnd, How many Qualifiers are there?!?

Keats goal was his first in 20 hours of football!

Well this game was all over the shop with 4 goals in the opening 8 minutes! We were 2-0 up after only 5 minutes then got pegged back almost immediately, we were actually losing 4-3 with quarter of an hour to go before Yetton then Watkins then Neal netted goals

Zubar gets yet another Concussion

We came from 3-0 down against the League Leaders to ****** a last gasp equalizer thanks to midfield Maestro Racchi

I must be doing something right i have been offered several job interviews but none of them for clubs doing better than us right now

FA Cup 1st Rnd
Truro 1 - 1 Forest Green

View attachment 67266

Watkins netted a goal out of nowhere but they got an equalizer through an underserved penalty 20 minutes later, we almost let it all go as Cherett got sent off and we just about cling on to the draw and the replay, i was certainly worried when they brought Carlton Cole off the bench!

Vanarama South
Truro 3 - 1 Hendon

View attachment 67265

A routine league win after our decent cup performances, they netted from their only shot on target whilst WB Copp put in a man of the match performance

So many Cup games! We face Hemel Hempstead in the 3rd Qualfying rnd in the FA Trophy

View attachment 67264

Before our Cup runs we were in 140k of debt but thanks to prize money and a hefty 67k of TV rights Money we are down to 10k of debt with more cup games to come

Matt Swan nets a last minute Winner to seal all 3 points, the league is almost an afterthought at the moment with our Cup exploits, i could well make more money from a couple more cup games than i would if we get promoted!

Neal has 17 goals already this season as he continues his superb form from last season and shows that we are not missing Tyler Harvey at all who has not started once for his new club but came off the bench 19 times and not netted at all!

View attachment 67259

Still in 3rd place just 2 points off top spot as we come up to halfway through the season, its much tighter at the top and any kind of loss could see you fall away, i really want that top spot as i dont want to go through the Playoffs again

A comfortable 2-0 win against similar level opposition sees us through to the FA Cup 3rd rnd and a potential money spinning tie

We end the month and the year on a sour note, after such good form in recent weeks in the league and in the cups we lose out to Concord as one of their strikers came off the bench to net a brace late on and turn the game on its head, if we had of won we could have been going into the New Year joint top of the league

Neal has been in superb form again with 23 goals and 10 assists already this season

View attachment 67046

After Battle scored early on the result never seemed in doubt but it took a late couple of goals from Watkins and Keats to put the shine on the win before they had a man sent off late on

Battle's 10 hour goal drought is over! To be honest i didnt realise it had got that bad, i think with so many good strikers getting goals and our heroics in the cup i didnt notice he was struggling

Fuming is an understatement! If we want to win the Title we cant afford to drop points to the lesser teams, we went ahead through Battle before they equalized with 10 minutes to go, Allen then netted a penalty 4 minutes later and it looked like all 3 points would be ours but they netted again in the 89th minute to dash our dreams

Vanarama South
WSM 0 - 1 Truro

View attachment 67042

Despite Palfrey getting sent off Noah Keats who was rubbish last season came off the bench again to net a last gasp winner against one of our closest rivals in terms of league positions

I feel as if Zubar needs to retire! He must of had 3 concussions this season alone!

FA Cup 3rd Rnd
Truro 0 - 5 Burton

View attachment 67040

Well thats the FA Cup dream over but i didnt expect much from this game, it was a capacity crowd but you have to think they are several leagues above us and their striker *** earns 7k a week whilst our weekly wage budget is only 4,5k a week!
I was quite surprised at how the Media bashed us their manger Rosler bashed us and the board and fans were not happy with the result! What did they all expect!?! I was impressed myself that we got to the 3rd rnd

Battle's goal drought is clearly in the past smashing in 4 goals on our way to an easy win against relegation threatened Hereford

At the beginning of the season we were 140k in debt but thanks to our cup runs, gate receipts, prize money and being on tv for one match we have now got nearly 12k in the bank!

Battle wins Player of the Month after 8 goals in 5 games

View attachment 67031

3 points off top spot Welling as we both start to pull away from the rest of the pack, with Gloucester a further 7 points behind us, i think with the Cup games slowing down now we should be able to focus on the league and go for the Title! I really dont want to leave it up to the Playoffs after last seasons heartbreak

This was a real back and forth game as both teams took the lead at different points before being pegged back but we scored two goals in injury time to seal the win and advance to the next round

Not only is the GK injured two of my key defenders are banned for two matches after picking up 10 yellow cards

They come from behind twice in a shocker of a result against lowly Bognor, they had two shots on target and netted both of them whilst we missed a shed load of chances

So both of my main strikers are set to miss a month out injured along with my first choice keeper just as my form seems to have gone down the toilet brilliant

Cody Cooke has been the Player of the Month and has 13 goals and 12 assists from midfield this season

View attachment 66914

3 points behind league leaders Welling who also have a game in hand on us with 10 matches to go, just to put our challenge into perspective they have drawn a few times this season but their only 2 losses have come all the way back in August! They havent lost in the league for over 6 months

A fantastic result as we are missing our top two goalscorers and main GK but managed to get a last gasp equalizer against a team in the league above meaning a replay is on the cards

Shola Nwafor is our best Youth Intake prospect in typical style the best 3 play in MR or AMR a position we dont need in our tactic then 2 GK's when we have 3 GK's already,

3-0 up an hour in against our biggest Title rivals! We almost let it slip with a couple of conceded goals but we just about saw out the result, My 100th game as Truro Manager could well have been the biggest too as we take charge at the top of the Vanarama South!

My first 100 games in charge sees us win 59 with 18 draws and 23 defeats

View attachment 66508View attachment 66507

I usually post up My Best Player, My Top Goalscorer and My Best Young Player but those 3 things sort of incorporate all 3 of my forwards so here are their stats for the season

Andrew Neal - 33 Goals and 23 Assists

My Player/Assistant Manager is going to retire at the end of the season and also does not want to sign a new deal as the Assistant Manager

View attachment 66497

So a much better end to the season than last year where i was knocked out of the Playoffs, next season in the Vanarama National League is going to be tough and all we can hope for is to stay in the division, my original aim was to get to the Football League in 5 seasons so with the first part done that gives me 3 seasons to get promoted but i think the Cup runs will be the make or break for us, they saved us from financial difficult last season and can also bank roll any future Promotion pushes

So the Media think we are going to come dead last but im aiming to just stay in the division, 20th and i will be happy, its also our first chance to face one of our near rivals in the shape of Torquay

View attachment 66387

I brought in a Greek Striker Klaidi Lolos whos only 18 years old but is a former Crystal Palace youth product before a couple of seasons at Plymouth Argyle

I also brought in another striker Wynter-Coles with the likes of Neal injured and Yetton and Thompson leaving the club and the fact i play with 3 strikers i needed to add depth to the attacking options

Heres the starting 11 and tactic for the new season, i feel like we have enough to stay in the division as i have offered new deals to the likes of Battle, Neal and Watkins my attacking trio because a lot of clubs have been after them

Battle netted a brace in a good win but it was a debut to forget for Clinton as he netted an own goal to give me a bit of a heart attack before Battle got his second. These cup matches are the bread and butter for making money in these leagues so we have to beat the teams around us

Oh ****** we face Walsall in the 1st rnd of the FA Cup they are bottom of their league but its still 2 leagues above us

Truro 1 - 1 Tranmere

View attachment 65881

They are near the top of the league but we should have won this after they had a player sent off just 4 minutes in! They still took the lead before Watkins popped up and scored our only shot on target

Vanarama National
Aldershot 2 - 0 Truro

View attachment 65880

That result brings to the end a poor month overall with just 1 win in 6 games and 3 draws, we have shown really our level this month and should just hope to stay in the league

Battle has still been scoring with 14 goals in 15 games along with 5 assists

We freefall back down to 18th but at least we are 9 points from the relegation places, if i stay 18th come the end of the season i will be happy.

Back to back defeats and both of them were poor performances to boot

Vanarama National

Truro 3 - 1 Newport County

View attachment 65816

With Lolos out injured NBW had the chance to shine and boy did they! They each grabbed a goal and Neal finally started to show himself as the player that was so dominant last season in the league below

Cody Cooke has got some hugely important goals this month all but winning a couple of games for us thanks to his wondergoals

View attachment 65814

Flying high in 13th and only 3 points off the Playoff places, could it be like my first season? Poor start before climbing the table to the Playoffs late on or am i getting ahead of myself

Barrow 4 - 2 Truro

View attachment 65788

Barrow are one of the top sides in the division so i expected a tough game but didnt think we would be 3-0 down by half time! We did come back into it with a couple of goals just after the break before they got a 4th to stop our momentum

I sign a contract extension and get a slight pay rise

Truro 3 - 2 Macclesfield

View attachment 65781

This game was all sorted inside the first half, it was really back and forth they took the lead before we pegged them back quickly to turn the game on its head, we then got a third from the penalty spot before they got one just before half time, we managed to ride out the rest of the match

Vanarama National
Truro 3 - 2 Sutton

View attachment 65780

Another 3-2 win this time Watkins netted a minute into the side before they netted either side of the break, it all changed when Wynter-Coles came off the bench and netted twice in 3 minutes around the hour mark to get us the 3 points

Central midfielder River Allen has been my player of the month

View attachment 65779

Flying high in 8th place! We are just a point off the Playoffs now! With this sort of form we should really be looking at a top half finish! I think it all depends on injuries and who we bring in in January whether or not we kick on to a Playoff push
