A cold afternoon at Poltair Park saw the visit of an inconsistent Grampound side buoyed by a win the previous week. St Austell were also in confident mood after a big derby win at fortress par track in their last encounter with Biscovey, the tea hut crowd were expecting a thriller. Town were in their changed strip of skin tight white.
St Austell were without several regulars : lee Harvey working, Zidane away, Ross Sundercoumbe spear chucking and Richards Osbourne MIA at a stag do slash stock check. Injury also robbed the lillywhites of Phil Hutchins who’s ankle injury is proving to be a real worry to the management and also the rest of the lads as his lineman skills are shocking!!! Luke Buckland once again stepped in between the sticks but was rarely troubled. The match began in typical fashion for St Austell, very slowly! As once again it took them 30 minutes to warm up, Grampound without ever really threatening caused the Town back four a few problems early on and the game was scrappy to say the least, this was most evident when following the only good passing move of the first half Luke Patton uncharacteristically blazed over from 6 yards, the ball ironically ending up in his old front garden! The breakthrough came just after, a clumsy foul in the box resulting in a Patton penalty, 1 nil Town. The game was still all over the place, and with little good passing going on frustration began to creep in, this was eased slightly after Nick Bennetts clever lob put St Austell 2 nil up on the stroke of half time, a poor first 45 then and little sign of the carnage to follow.

2nd team goalkeeper anton lake has left the club after a season with them. he had a very succesful season with the saints winning duchy 5 with the club and only conceding 20 goals in 20 games. rumour has it that he has gone to play for foxhole but not as a keeper. will he be missed by the club we will soon see.

Has anyone got any news about a replacement for Andy Ball or plans for rebuilding the first team?

we are the biggest town in the county but we cant even raise to sides of 30 players which is a disgrace! u could blame the former first team manager andy ball but he wasnt really helped by the commitee! we have got plenty of good players in the area of st.austell and alot of them are young. the commitee needs to adress this problem as soon as possible and bring in the young and good local lads to play for whats was a prestigous club untill last year! as a local to the club i feel embaressed to say that my local tem is st.austell! so sort it out or soon u will not have any supporters what so ever, which isnt good for the club and also the town of st.austell

Is there any truth in the rumours that the ground will soon be redeveloped?
New stand, changing facilities and a pool club apparently? I have a friend who claims to know the developers and he claims that as well as running their own pool club, they will be bank rolling a decent side when the doors open? They have money to one side to pay for the levelling of the pitch and the installation of floodights as well, is this true? This will help the club get back on its feet but what are the thoughts of the members? Is this a load of shitty rumours? I hope not as if my sources are correct, it could be exciting times for town.

I've been watching local football for over 40 years and watched the second team play at Delabole last Saturday, the boy Bennett should be playing Conference level.

As the first team failed to raise a side to go to Vospers yesterday, does anybody have any more details as to what happened? I see the League have deducted 3 points - are the club doing themselves any favours by struggling at this level season after season?
If the stay in the Peninsula League next season and struggle again, we may not have a club in 12 months time - surely taking the drop to the ECPL and starting again wouldn't be the end of the world?

Well im here 0000's of miles away in Bali, and i found out the score of St Austell vs Premier 6's in the most bizzare fashion, us boys were in a bar watching man city vs west ham, and me and golley were talking random shite about our old clubs we used to play for and some lad over heard us and well, HE ONLY BLOODY PLAYED FOR PREMIER 6'S WHEN WE DICKED THEM 5-0!!!! after we talked for a bit he said he recognised me but as it was 3 in the morning and we were a little drunk it was random to say the least, so a few beers and some mocking over St Austell amazing team, me and dna (prem 6's guy) are getting on alright, in our area of Bali, there are 7 people from st austell and newquay area its crazy.
well done lads one hands on the trophy for sure now, keep playing well and i look forward to hearing the next results soon. Gary (in hot Bali, where bottles of beer are 50p!!!)

Tomorrow sees the first St Austell Pub Golf Tournament of the season, some players are complete novices to the game, but tournamnet organiser Lea Cooper (me) would like to wish all the boys the best of luck and may the best team win, it is a great day and its not about winning its about drinking!!!!! . Ladbokes have stopped taking bets on Lee Allen and whoever his partner is, Earlier on in the week Lee clearly marked his intentions by claiming he will hole in one every hole!! Phil the ferret Hutchings is favouite to not finishing the course, my favourite is the old man of the team Mr Hammond, he has had many years of hard core drinking behind him, this should help him to become the pub golf champion of 2007, lets hope he does not get paired with Lee I drink Pints in my sleep Allen.
All the best Super Cooper.

After looking at the weather forecast for the coming week which is looking sunny but cold there could be good news second team players and we should have a fixture to play at home to St. Breward. After a few weeks off could we get our first fixture in for 3 weeks.

A big fine could be on the way for the gaffer after opting to go abroad on holiday for a vital top of the table clash, Rumor has it that senior Powell, Brian could become manager for the day!!!!
