Falmouth Town slipped to a 1-0 defeat to Bishops Cleeve in last night’s Southern League match. Town started lively with Luke Barner’s first shot on goal going narrowly wide. The game developed into a close fought battle with some real end to end action. On 39 minutes, Ned Symons beat three defenders to get into the Bishops Cleeve box, but was unable to get his shot away. Luke Barner let rip with a shot from the edge of the box on 41 minutes, only for it to go just wide of the post. With two added minutes, it Luke Barner who got third shot in, only to see the ball shave the wrong side of the post.

The second half got underway with Bishops Cleeve putting Town under some early pressure and creating chances. Around the hour mark Town manager Andy Westgarth made some substitutions with Bradley Leivers replacing Luke Brabyn and Jared Sims coming on for Ned Symons. Falmouth again attacked the the Bishops goal but unable to penetrate their defence. On the 75 minute mark, Andeas Calleja-Stayne made way for Jack Webber. There followed some more Bishops pressure on the Town goal, resulting in a chaotic goalmouth scramble. Bishop Cleeve’s Stephen Davies’s shot took several delections before rolling just over the line. Despite several Town attacks, including a Bradley Leivers header which was tipped over the bar by goalkeeper Lewis Clayton, denying Falmouth the equaliser. The game ended with four minutes of added time, with Bishops Cleeve taking all three points.

FALMOUTH TOWN 2-2 MALVERN TOWN

Falmouth Town gained a very well earned point tonight in our Southern League match against a well organised Malvern Town.

The first half was a fairly even affair with both sides probing each others goal but not taking their chances. After a scrappy first forty-five minutes, the teams went in at the break with the score at 0-0.

The second half started lively with both teams creating chances, but it was Malvern who broke the deadlock on 48 minutes with a Sam Clark header from a corner. With the score at 1-0, Malvern began to assert their authority. Town kept battling and Rubin Wilson made a couple of threatening moves into the Malvern box, but to no avail. On 81 minutes, Luke Payne looked to have secured the three points for Malvern when he scored a superb goal. However, there were more twists in this tale, and it was Town’s Luke Barner who was on form to grab one back just three minutes later. With the score at 2-1 to the visitors and the game into injury time, it was the turn of Andreas Calleja-Stayne to get on the score sheet and secure a valuable point for Falmouth.

DIDCOT TOWN 3-2 FALMOUTH TOWN

Falmouth Town returned home empty handed after the 519 mile round trip to Didcot Town on Tuesday, November 12th. It started well for Falmouth who went ahead in the 16th minute through Bradley Leivers, after some great attacking play. However the lead lasted only two minutes before Didcot found an equaliser through Jenson Wright. Bouyed by this, the hosts took the lead through Luke Carnell on 26 minutes from a corner. Falmouth Town continued to press forward, with Falmouth denied by two clearances and a third shot hitting the top of the crossbar. The half ended 2-1 to the hosts, but not before the Didcot No:10, Jenson Wright earned a yellow card for fouling Oscar Massey.

The second half started with Falmouth enjoying some sustained possession, but were unable to break down Didcot’s defence. This was followed by some end to end football with both teams having chances. Falmouth made a double substituion with Jarod Sims & Luke Barner making way for Cam Hutchison & Olly Walker. It was on 83 minutes, when Olly Walker got on the end of a long pass, to set up Oscar Massey for the equaliser. Another substitution saw Rubin Wilson come on for Luke Brabyn. In the last minutes of normal time, Falmouth earned a free kick about 25 yards out, but Andy Elcock’s shot was denied by the croosbar. It was in the second minute of injury time when Jenson Wright got into the box and finished low under our keeper to win the match. The ‘Man of the Match’ award goes to Luke Brabyn.

We now turn our attention to Saturday, when we travel to Cribbs in Bristol, in search of those three points.
