Good afternoon and a very warm welcome to everyone
       for  this  Toolstation  Western  League  game  at  home  to
       Falmouth Town. This is our visitors’ first season in the
       Western  League  following  their  fantastic  promotion
       campaign  from  the  South  West  peninsula  League  last
       season. We welcome everyone connected with Falmouth
       to our League and hope you enjoy your visit to Crown
       Fields this afternoon and that you have a safe journey
       back  to  Cornwall.  Our  committee  would  also  like  to
       welcome today’s match officials, referee John Reed and
       his 2 assistants, David Jones & Rob Taylor.

       Much reference was made to our poor first month of the season, but as I have said
       countless  times,  the  “bedding  in  process”  for  these  young  players  was  always
       destined to be a long and challenging one. We always knew it would take time for
       these young lads to come to terms with the physicality of men’s football at this level
       when  they’d  been  so used  to  the  academy  game;  but  what  I  personally  didn’t
       expect was them to adjust as quickly as they have done after confronting such a
       steep learning curve.

       We head into today’s encounter with Western League newcomers Falmouth Town
       in much better heart and shape after steadying up with 4-0 and 1-0 victories over
       Wellington and Sherborne Town respectively in our last two eye-catching outings.
       Our  new  coach,  Juan  Mascuano,  who  has  coached  with  Atletico  Madrid,  Real
       Madrid and Bristol City academies, can take credit for much of that, as can Ash
       Morgan for the many hours’ hard work he has put into establishing our First Team
       squad.

       After so much travelling in August, it is nice to now have 2 home games on the trot!
       I hope you enjoy today’s game and look forward to seeing you back here at Crown
       Fields next Saturday 24th September (my birthday) at 3:00pm, when we will be
       hosting Street in the League.

       Thank you for your loyal support and for the encouragement you have given our
       young stars – this is appreciated massively by everyone at the club.

       Jules French (Club Secretary)
