L.Ricks9 Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 For a bit of fun, players, managers and spectators opinions on players, ground, facilities, teams etc that stood out to them in there respected leagues this season. Best team? Best club house? Best set up? Best pitch? Best support? Best grub after game? Best striker? Best midfielder? Best defender? Best goal keeper? Under achieved team? For me in the SWPL division 1 west. Best team? Callington, I no the league table doesn't lie and suggests Mousehole (at the moment) but in my opinion, Cally are the best team we've played this season. Best clubhouse? Truro City R, just because of the standered of their facilities. Best Set up ? Truro City R. Best Pitch ? Sticker FC, The surface there week in week out regardless the weather is unbelievable. Best support ? A number of teams bring a decent crowd but the best we've seen this season and atmosphere wise has been Foxhole FC. Best grub? St Dennis, Cath in the tea hut makes the best curry ? Beat Striker? Mark goldsworthy, (helston) year after year collects the golden boot Best midfielder? Mark vercasi, still got it at that age ? Best Defender ? David Rickard (St Dennis) reads the game so well at a young age. Ash Stidwell (helston) quick and strong. Best goal keeper? Ryan Holland (sticker) And under achieved team? I'd say Perrenporth in the league, the players they have in that team I'm shocked at there league position. Feel they should have finished higher with the quality they have.

Owngoalcornwall Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Premier; Best team; parkway on their day. Best striker; landricombe Best midfielder; Exmouth winger and captain, left footed, don't know his name. Best defender; probably one of the parkway back 3. Best keeper; probably kev miller. Vast experience and some very important saves. Best surface; Bodmin. Best facilities; Tavistock. Best fans; we all love our own supporters! Biggest moaners; Exmouth or parkway - constantly surrounding the ref and screaming at every official at every game ive seen them involved in. Bodmin not far behind in 3rd. Under achievers; Newquay FC as a whole. With their facilities, structure and money they shouldn't be that far down the league. Over achievers; Godolphin. First season in prem. very thin squad of late. Lost some key players along the way. But still beat Bodmin twice, parkway, Exmouth twice (inc cup), St Austell twice amongst others and a Cup semi final and possibly a top 6 finish. All in all a very entertaining season and still lots to play for..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Pethick Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Due to my obvious bias , I have not gone for Parkway in any of these categories . Best team - Liskeard ( In terms of attitude and spirit , they still kept going even at 8-0 down ) Best club house - Falmouth Best set up - Ivybridge Best pitch - St Blazey Best support - Godolphin Best grub - Cullompton ( it was like a wedding buffet ) Best striker - Andrew Neal ( Ivybridge) Best midfielder - Chris Reski ( St Austell ) Best defender - Steve Simmonds ( Bodmin ) Best goalkeeper - Joe Moore ( Elmore ) ( had the game of his life down at Bolitho Park) Underachievers - St Austell ( expected them to be strong contenders in the league , could still end up with two cups though ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nemesis Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I can only comment on the SWPL Prem, but it is nice to see so many West Div replies in this section. Best team? Plymouth Parkway Best club house? St Blazey Best set up? Not sure what that means. Best pitch? Depends when you play on it. Best support? As usual, there are very few clubs with more than a car full of away fans who turn up at Mount Wise. Have to give the award to travelling fans to Newquay (obviously), there have been just 4 matches where our away support has numbered less than 20. At Home, Parkway have good numbers, but other than the 'big' games such as Cup Finals where the once a season pissheads turn out, there is very little in actual support for any team in the SWPL, it is more spectators who applaud at goals and shout at refs... and I include Newquay in that. Best grub after game? Can't comment, but I'm sure the players appreciate all hospitality. Best striker? Levi Landricombe (Parkway) Best midfielder? Luke Rigby Godolphin & Jack Bray-Evans Newquay Best defender? None Best goal keeper? None Under achieved team? St Austell should be top 4 but have been poor in the SWPL overall - As a club, Falmouth continue to baffle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering the change of management and a few players, I dont see how you can say St Austell have been poor overall....yes, we should be higher up the league but i believe the league is a competitive one and the top teams can lose several games throughout the season to anyone. We have a senior cup title in our cabinate and are in the throgmorton cup final, qualified for the fa cup & fa vase, beat our closest rivals st blazey on 3 occasions and tanked our next closest rivals newquay twice. So overall i think its been a pretty succesful season for the lillywhites so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santini11 Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 ...........and before you come back and reply with the whole MONEY situation, the players at the club have shown amazing loyalty to stay at the club considering Phil came in and correctly halved the budget.

leedsunited Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 I think phil would be delighted with the cup success st.austell have achieved this season, however to be so far off the top teams in the league i cant imagen he would look at the league campaign as a success. Only my opinion, i might be wrong. A win against local rivals is always nice but both newquay & st.blazey have had poor seasons in their own right, with both failing to qualify for next seasons fa.cup.

As i said.....we could be higher in the league but not everything goes ur way in football. Im just saying i feel 'overall' we have had a very succesful season with the qualification of both FA Cup competitions and 2 cup finals (one being succesful) And yes Blazey and Newquay have had a poor season considering the size and history of the 2 clubs......so pot, kettle, black springs to mind with Nemisis' comment.

Paul Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 St Blazeys sucess will come again. No point throwing money at something when the money isnt there. The club continues to make a profit and in these struggling times that to me us a sucess. Weve had a up and down season but generally seen some good football. Weve lost 13 matches by one goal this season. So not exactly thumped off the pitch. Not to disapointed with the two defeats against St Austell who needed to keep the ball in the corner in both league matches as they were hanging on. Literally. Semi final of one cup and beating the potential champions Parkway with a bit to spare. With some of the best facilities around and a brilliant clubhouse St Blazey will challenge again when the time is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Posted May 1, 2014 Report Share Posted May 1, 2014 Just my opinion Ricks, not that it counts for much. I just think that the quality players St Austell have, should be challenging for the SWPL title. You have a great manager, a lot of talented players, but not had the best of SWPL seasons, which is what the title of the thread is about. Obviously a good cup side, the best result was the Ivybridge one in the SWPL Cup. I'm sure Lafs will be busy in the summer, tempting a few Godolphin lads away would bolster the side. Newquay lost heavily on too many occasions, but most of the players are either Teens or over 30's. Wins at places like Exmouth and Witheridge show that there is the potential to move forwards and like St Blazey, our time will come again. We did not have the best of seasons for various reasons, but have scored more goals than both Bodmin & Godolphin, a teenage back four will have learnt a lot this season. As for the FA Cup, Newquay did not apply this time round. A great topic, everyone has opinions, all different, all good. If we we're all the same, it would be a very boring world.

leedsunited Posted May 2, 2014 Report Share Posted May 2, 2014 Teens or over 30's....ouch!! Wouldnt want to be you nemesis at your next game! You brutal man you!! Your right when you say its all about opinions. I think exmouth are the suprise package of the season, well drilled, strong side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
