RAPPO & DEACS FRIDAY FIX 

17 May 2019

Welcome to the 24th episode. The last one!

We’re still in the Cup Final period of the season and so understandably there’s a review of last Saturday’s SWPL League Cup Final, as well as a mention for Sunday’s Duchy League final which features St Mawgan and Foxhole clashing again. St Mawgan’s manager Ash Bicknall is back on to give us his thoughts while Lee Denton also tells how he happens to be back at Perranporth and looking to seal his second Combo league title in two seasons for the club!

Falmouth Town’s Young Player of the Season, Martyn Duff, explains how he feels his playing role is at the club and we finish the season with our regular SWPL contributor, secretary Phil Hiscox, giving his thoughts on the league’s season. Many thanks to Phil for his weekly contribution.

We sum up how much we have in the kitty after our weekly “Bet of the Week” slot, and of course there’s the final result for the Predictions we made every week! 

Rappo also shares his last Combo review of the season.

As this is the last episode, thanks to everyone who has contributed over the 24 weeks. You have been so helpful in having a chat about the local game. It’s made some great listening and I hope you have enjoyed what we have tried to do.

It’s been fun talking about Cornish football!

Cup football continues to dominate with firstly player/manager James “Harry” Tonkin coming back on after his Mousehole Reserves side won the Cornwall Junior Cup.

After the Senior Cup Final three weekends ago, Falmouth and Saltash have to do it all again, this time in the SWPL Cup Final and we speak to Dane Bunney of the Ashes and James Miller from Town.

There’s also Shaun Vincent of St Blazey on this week’s podcast and of course Rappo with his usual features - his “Bet of the Week”, the Predictions (on a handful of games throughout the Saturday football programme) and the Combo review.

RAPPO & DEACS FRIDAY FIX 

3 May 2019

Welcome to the 22nd episode.

After the Senior Cup Final two weekends ago, it’s the turn of the Bond Timber Cornwall Junior Cup Final this Sunday and we hear from managers of both camps.

However, before that, of course Rappo is back from his holiday away and so his usual features are back such as his “Bet of the Week”, the Predictions (on a handful of games throughout the Saturday football programme) and the Combo review.

As usual, we keep in touch with our resident Truro City supporters, Cam and Josh, as well as with the SWPL secretary Phil Hiscox.

So onto the Junior Cup Final taking place at Hayle on Sunday. First up is “Harry” Tonkin, Mousehole’s manager and then we have back one half of the Foxhole management team – Shaun German.

It’s great listening to both of them ahead of one of the biggest dates on the Cornish football calendar.

It’s the 21st episode of the weekly Friday Fix podcast which is now available to download and enjoy and is available via a number of different podcast platforms. 

There’s no Rappo this time around as he’s away on holiday and so that means no “Bet of the Week” or “Predictions” as well as Rappo’s detailed “Combo Review”.

We have got some interviews however, featuring the Senior Cup skippers from Falmouth Town and Saltash United – namely Joe Cooper and Ryan Richards respectively.

The RM Graphic Design League Cup final takes place at St Blazey on Sunday and managers Lee Mann (Callington) and Mark Smith (AFC St Austell) speak to the Friday Fix podcast as well as Mark giving his neutral thoughts on the Easter Monday Senior Cup Final.

Two more managers appear on this week’s episode – from the Combo we have Harry Pope (Penryn Athletic) while SWPL Division One West side Liskeard Athletic made sure of the league title this week and so Richard Woods from the Blues joins the podcast . 

As usual we keep in touch with our resident Truro City supporters, Josh and Cam, as well as the SWPL secretary Phil Hiscox. 

Once again, thanks for listening and please feel free to contact me – [email protected] with feedback, comments and suggestions for future episodes.

RAPPO & DEACS EASTER CUP SPECIAL 

18th April 2019

Thank you for listening to another episode of the podcast.

This is the 20th episode to become available to download and enjoy. Of course, we’re out a day early this week because of the busy Easter local football programme.

It’s always a special time in the football calendar with not only an all but full programme of SWPL matches on the Good Friday, but then cup football takes over with the Cornwall Combination League Cup Final on the Sunday and of course the Cornwall Senior Cup final on the Easter Monday. Our version of the FA Cup as described by three of our guests this week St Austell’s Caretaker Manager Neil Slateford, who is also no stranger to appearing in the final, and we also talk to the two managers involved on the day – Saltash’s Matt Cusack and Falmouth’s Andy Westgarth.

Before that however, we also hear from two key people in the build-up to the Combo final on the Sunday – Illogan’s skipper Steve Abbott-Smith and St Day’s assistant manager Rob Hosking. 

It’s a special cup episode and no apologies for it being just over two hours. You’ve got the whole weekend to listen to it! It’s great that we can get to hear from people who will be involved in the big games coming up and that we can share them with you, our listeners.

There’s also the usual features such as Rappo’s “Bet of the Week” and our Predictions on a handful of games throughout the Saturday football programme, from SWPL through to Duchy and Trelawny.

We keep in touch with our resident Truro City supporters, Cam and Josh, as well as with the SWPL secretary Phil Hiscox.

While Rappo takes his regular look at the Cornwall Combination League scene, we also touch on the MAB ECPL Premier Division title run-in, and more from this league next week with their league cup final taking place.

RAPPO & DEACS FRIDAY FIX PODCAST 

5th April 2019

This is episode 18 of the FRIDAY FIX podcast and it’s another packed one!

We hear from four guests this week, two of which are Reserve team managers and two of which are SWPL players.

Steve Manuel, manager of Saltash United Reserves, gives his thoughts on the exciting MAB ECPL Premier Division title race, while Rob Noventa is open and honest in sharing with us the struggle he’s having at Porthleven, in charge of the Reserves at Gala Parc. We also have an extended interview with Rob because he explains the troubles in more detail along with of course, he was personally involved in the “referee walking off incident” at Falmouth only three days ago! 

Tom Whipp, a Bodmin Town defender, tells us why they are getting things together at the Priory Park club, and Liskeard Athletic skipper Jack Podmore gives his thoughts on the Blues closing in on the Division One West title.

As always, our resident guests - Truro City supporters, Josh and Cam, and SWPL secretary Phil Hiscox, contribute with their weekly slots and Rappo brings us his “Bet of the Week”, along with his Combo review and I join him in our Predictions on five games throughout the weekend’s football programme.

This week is a longer episode, mainly because of the extended interview with Rob, but we felt it was important to hear his views on the referee incident! Don’t forget, you can always stop and start the podcast as is convenient to you.

Thanks for listening and please feel free to contact me – [email protected] with feedback, comments and suggestions for future episodes.

It’s great being able to talk about Cornish football and if you know of anyone who wants to join in with Rappo and me, get in touch.

As the CORNISH SOCCER podcast was one of the first to speak to Leigh Robinson when he took over as manager of Truro City back in early September 2018, we thought following his recent dismissal, we would return to Leigh to hear his thoughts on his short tenure in the role.

He says himself that "I think the club did the right thing for both parties".

Enjoy your golf Leigh!

RAPPO & DEACS FRIDAY FIX PODCAST 

29 March 2019

This is episode 17 of the FRIDAY FIX podcast. Don’t forget it’s important to hear what you think about this podcast and how we can improve it and so email me [email protected] with any thoughts and comments.

In this episode there’s a bit of managerial slant to it with the big news this week that Truro City sacked their management team after a run of poor results.

We have a young man, Kyle Marks, who is experiencing the role having offered to help Ludgvan see out the season; in contrast, we catch up with one of the more successful ones around as we hear from  Falmouth’s boss Andy Westgarth, while newspaper reporter Rhod Mitchell, who has been covering Truro City since the 1980s, joins us to talk in more detail about the up and downs of Truro City’s season and especially the manager moves this week!

As usual Rappo is on hand to give us his “Bet of the Week”, his Combo review and joins me in our Predictions on five games throughout the weekend’s football programme.

Also, it wouldn’t be the same without our resident Truro City supporters, Josh and Cam, and of course SWPL secretary Phil Hiscox, another regular weekly contributor.

Once again, thanks for listening and please feel free to contact me – [email protected] with feedback, comments and suggestions for future episodes.
