Match Preview – Truro City – Sat 24 Sep

We welcome Truro City  to The Vale (HA4 6JQ) this coming  Saturday (24 Sep)  for our latest Vanarama National League South fixture kick-off 15:00

Our visitors  have made a slow start to the season picking up  just 11 points from their first 11 games played having won 2 (2-0 at Concord Rangers & 2-0 at home to Hungerford Town), drawn 5 (2-2 versus Chelmsford City, 1-1 versus Welling Utd and 0-0 to Poole Town all at home; 2-2 versus Hampton & Richmond Borough  &  1-1 versus Oxford City on the road) and lost 4 (1-3 to Bath City & 0-6 to East Thurrock Utd at home,  1-3 at Gosport Borough & 0-2 at Maidenhead Utd). In the 2nd Qualifying Round of the Emirates FA Cup last Saturday they  lost 0-4 at Winchester City.

The Stones management team and squad will also be looking to build on their good start to the season, it was good to see recent absentees David Hunt and Club Captain Wes Parker get some valuable game time last Saturday in our FA Cup tie win versus Histon.
