Peter Masters, Truro's owner also owns a coach and taxi business. Maybe he could offer subsidised transport.

He is apparently but a 200 mile round trip on a Saturday on Cornish roads isn't appealing.

The main road through Cornwall (A30) has been upgraded over the years and apart from about 5 miles, is dual carriageway.Pretty busy during the summer, but not a problem for the bulk of the football season.

You have obviously never driven in Pembrokeshire at the height of the summer season. :cry:

A new stadium is planned to be shared between The Pirates, Truro City and Cornwall College. Funding is in place except for the pre-election promise by David Cameron for Government funds to cover the £3 million shortfall.
Hopefully, work will commence in October.

It had been agreed that Truro City could remain at Treyew Road for the coming season and ground-share for the first few months of 2019/20, whilst the work on the new stadium is completed.

It looks as though the developers have gone back on their previous agreement.

The lands of the £5 to £10 pasties eh? I was in St David’s recently, the oggis were extortionate and you couldn’t buy a bottle of wine under £12 from any shop. Needs a decent Greggs and a Lidl’s :grin:
