Great news for our pitch and hopefully they've already paid all the monies.

Good news.
Will their ground cope with the number we’ll now take on New Years Day?

Owers out, Johnson in, Dead wood out, Harrop out, Truro out. Osborne has been busy!
Life is like TUFC. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. :goal:

To be fair, Truro fans weren't exactly jumping in joy at the news of the ground share, so to say they weren't welcome is harsh. The club will have to find a coach for away matches as there is cats hell in chance, Johnson will be driving the team in a mini bus. Worse case scenario when we have no ground, Truro will repay the favour.

We wouldn't have to do that, WSM have offered us use of their ground should the need arise ;-)

I understand that development of their ground has only been delayed by 1 year, in which case, even if they do move back to Cornwall this season, they could be back at Plainmoor in August.

In all fairness certain teams have had an advantage playing them at Plainmoor with no fecking home fans ie Billericay.

What a joke.

TUFC were happy to accept the £30,000 from Peter Masters for the ground share arrangement to be put in place!
I fail to see how the few games TCFC have played at Plainmoor to date has seriously inconvenienced or affected you to the extent that you have to make such a statement!
Now, if the arrangement happened to continue throughout the forthcoming possible wet months, then the pitch would obviously suffer and your rather harsh comment would then have some merit.

A few games you say ! Plainmoor has already staged enough games to constitute a full season to date, even GJ was privately concerned, we shouldn't of even thought about entertaining them the way we have if we have serious designs on getting promotion first time of asking.
Your snowflake attitude is one of the main reasons we are where we are today, professional football is ruthless so why hand your main protagonists an advantage even before a ball is kicked, stop being such a powder puff nobody remembers who comes second.
