PAGE 3 THE GAFFERS NOTES
Good afternoon everyone and a warm welcome to Callington Town who, since our earlier meeting a month ago, have changed their management team and will be looking to improve their results to pull away from the lower reaches of the table. As always we will need to be well prepared and at our best.
Since my last notes we have had 3 victories in 3 different competitions. Firstly the FA Vase game against Bodmin was, as expected, a tough encounter and not without it’s controversy. Some will argue that the Bodmin sending off changed the game but it’s sometimes more difficult playing against 10 men when they are defending a lead than 11. My own view is that their missed chance to go 3-1 ahead followed by us equalising at 2-2 virtually straight away was the game changer. The momentum shifted in our favour from that point and to come from 2 goals down after 25 minutes to win 4-2 against a tough Bodmin side reflects LEE HOBBS great credit on the lads, our team ethic and our will to win. We will now entertain Hereford based well they were received and how such a relatively Westfields in the last 64. Westfields are currently small club have progressed and provided such mid table in the step 5 Midland Premier league, good facilities. We thank them and wish them beat Willand Rovers 1-2 in the last round and had well. some high scoring victories in previous rounds. I also note that they reached the 1st round proper Finally, Tuesday’s visit to Cullompton in the 3rd of the FA Cup last season, the lowest ranked side round of the Walter Parson League Cup saw us left in the competition at that stage. A terrific progress to the quarter finals with a hard fought achievement for a step 5 side so an interesting but ultimately well deserved 5-0 victory. challenge is envisaged. It’s worthy of note that the 14 goals we have scored in these 3 games have been spread around Secondly, last Saturday saw us gain a comfortable 7 different players plus an own goal. Also to still 5-0 victory league victory at newly promoted be involved at this stage of the season in 4 of the 5 Sticker. A couple of minor injuries meant the squad competitions we entered is very pleasing and full was once again fully utilised and everyone played marks to all the players for their efforts so far. The their part in a very solid all round performance aim must be to continue to progress in all of them. which resulted in us moving 7 points clear at the top of the table. For many it was their first visit Thanks for your continued support and enjoy to Sticker and I have to say it was a pleasurable today’s game. experience for management, players and supporters alike.

Plymouth Parkway vs Bodmin Town Plymouth Parkway 4 (Williams 29, Krac 54, Joyce 62, og 83) Bodmin Town 2 (Carter pen 8, Watson 26)
Before kick off, a minutes silence was impeccably coming from deeper positions. On 50 mins Hobbs was observed by the very impressive crowd of 435. Parkway adjudged to be narrowly offside and his effort was made 4 changes to their starting line up from last disallowed. Arguably the games defining moment was Friday’s first defeat of the season including new signing not the sending off but a bad miss on 53 mins by the central defender Rob Farkins. With players from both normally reliable Carter who hit the post from close sides having played for the opposition in recent times, range when unmarked in front of an open goal. 3-1 an exciting, close encounter was envisaged. would have been a long way back. Parkway broke to the other end almost immediately and equalised when Parkway almost took the lead on 2 mins when Jordan Shane Krac, now becoming more influential, followed up Trott saw his follow up shot from his own blocked free a blocked shot firing home the rebound. Parkway were kick hit the base of the post. Bodmin were quickly now in the ascendency with Williams outstanding down into their stride dominating the early stages and took the left. The yellow cards continued to be brandished. the lead on 8 mins. A rash challenge on the bye line Parkway deservedly took the lead on 62 mins when a by Farkins resulted in a no arguments penalty duly misunderstanding between the Bodmin keeper and a despatched by ace marksman Adam Carter. Bodmin defender saw the ball punched out to the supporters continued to dominate the midfield areas, frequently player of the month for October, Joyce on the right testing the Parkway defence. Parkway did manage hand side of the box and he hit an exquisite low volley to create a couple of half chances with a Glyn Hobbs into the far corner. A superb strike. Ethan Phillips then header going just over on 10 mins and a long range replaced Hobbs up front. Bodmin came back into the effort from Ben Joyce also going over on 20 mins. game, particularly down their right with substitute Bodmin generally remained in control and almost took Sam Matthews prominent. Matthews entered the the lead on 21 mins when a free kick from their right game with a yellow card hanging over him having been skimmed off Parkway defender Nick Miltons head, just apparently booked when leaving the pitch at half time! clearing the bar. Bodmin doubled their lead on 26 mins when poor defending left Ben Watson unmarked in the Is that a first? Parkway were forced to defend well as box and he floated a superb curling shot into the top Bodmin forced a series of corners from some decent corner. Play at times became fractious and fragmented possession. As the game drew to a close Parkway looked with a number of free kicks against both sides disrupting the stronger outfit and went further ahead on 83 mins the flow of the game. The yellow cards also started to when yet another cross into the danger area was parried appear. Parkway forced their way back into the game against the unfortunate Luke Rundle and into his own on 29 mins when Mikey Williams prodded home from net. The ever hard working Smith was then replaced close range after Bodmin failed to deal with a right wing by Ryan Lane who immediately made some forceful corner. Parkway now began to exert more pressure by forward runs. Parkway were then content to slow the winning the midfield battles and a free kick from Joyce game down, retain possession and see the game out on 42 mins clipped the angle of bar and post withMike which they did comfortably. Smith seeing his 44th minute effort parried to safety by the keeper, arguably his first real save of the game. The An excellent, gritty effort to come from behind half ended in controversy as Bodmin midfielder Chris against a decent Bodmin side with Parkway showing McPhee was shown a contentious 2nd yellow card for an determination, commitment and no shortage of skill alleged foul on Sam Hillson. Connor Macauley replaced at vital times. As expected, a tough, at times feisty Christian Pople at half time for Parkway. encounter which hardly warranted a dozen or so yellow cards of which only 3 or 4 were for challenges, the Bodmin surprisingly left 2 up front leaving more space remainder seemed to be for dissent/ungentlemanly in midfield which Parkway began to exploit with runners conduct.

Both sides started off at a high tempo with neither the odd half chance now and then as Parkway began to getting the upper hand early on. The first chance came ring the changes with Mason Hughes replacing Hilson on 10 mins when Glyn Hobbs fired just wide after slick just after the hour. On 65 mins Sticker almost pulled build up play. Parkway gradually gained some control one back when a header hit the Parkway bar with and on 13 mins, another good move down the left Moore beaten. Luke Durham replaced Smith on 71 mins ended with Mike Smith turning smartly and seeing his followed shortly after by Connor Macauley replacing the shot cannon off the bar and over. The bar took another industrious Williams down the left. Hughes and Durham battering on 18 mins when a trademark powerful run soon began to link well down the right continuing to by Hobbs saw his rising drive smash against the bar and pressurise the overworked Sticker defence. Sticker then away to safety. had a good effort well saved on 81 mins and from the resultant long ball downfield by Moore, Hobbs read the Sticker continued to hold their own as the Parkway defence held firm snuffing out their sporadic attacks. The one bounce perfectly and deftly lobbed the onrushing Parkway central midfield trio now began to dominate keeper from around 18 yards. Route one at it’s best! providing a sound base with Ryan Lane making runs Sticker then saw another header just clear the bar before from deep to support the attackers, Christian Pople Parkway got their 5th in stoppage time. A free kick wide covering every blade of grass tackling strongly, breaking on the right saw Trott curl his left footed effort into an up play and hardly wasting a ball and Ben Joyce at the unguarded near post only for the keeper to react too base controlling the game, with his accuracy of short and late and bundle it on to the post and over the line. Garry long range passing a delight to watch. Mikey Williams Topsy Turner, stood behind the goal and a couple of the and Sam Hillson continued to push forward in the wide Parkway massive stood behind Trott are both claiming areas forcing Sticker to defend deep. The pressure finally an assist as we both pointed out to him the glaring near paid off on 32 mins when an inswinging corner from the post gap!! A thoroughly workmanlike performance from right by Jordan Trott saw recent signing Rob Farkins, a all elements of the Parkway team, solid at the back, central defender, rise above a group of players and dominant and creative in midfield and lively up front. power home a header from around 6 yards. Parkway Hard to pick a man of the match as everyone played continued to press and on 37 mins had a good penalty their part in an excellent all round team effort. shout turned down when Williams appeared to be felled. Lane then spooned an easy chance over an open On a personal note, good to have a post match chat with goal after another flowing move saw him put in the clear the referee’s assistant George Pattison, an old Royal by Hobbs. Parkway did increase their lead on 41 mins. A Navy colleague of mine. George has played and refereed tangle of legs saw Smith and his tackler end up on the at this and a higher level for some time now so knows deck and a penalty awarded, probably less clear cut than the game well. Told me it’s the first time he’s officiated the earlier claim. Hobbs then did what he does best. 0-2. Parkway for some time and was impressed with their Just before the break Kyle Moore, a virtual spectator performance and sees no reason why they cannot hold until now, made a crucial superb double save, pushing their own at a higher level. Thanks George, no pressure away a powerful shot at full stretch and then blocking the rebound. Games can change on such moments. then! Finally thanks to the Supporters Club transport coordinator Pat Bullen who organised todays minibus Parkway went further ahead on 50 mins when a great for 25 of the faithful. Just a shame that having to leave turn and strike from Hobbs was parried by the keeper some time before the bus did, he opted for a different with the ever alert Williams following in to slot home diversion route because of the closure of the A38 due to the rebound from close range. Sticker continued to the serious RTA. Apparently he arrived back in Plymouth defend well, compete strongly in midfield and create well after our bus!
