Callington 2 Hayle 2
Hayle travelled to Ginsters Marshfield parc on Saturday where memories of last year's defeat (0-8) still laid heavily on their minds. The display from the visitors was one to proud off and continue to perform well away from home.
Hayle started the game at a furious pace, with Duncan and Thomas causing the home defence series of problems with their attacking play, the visitors should have taken the lead when both strikers had opportunities to open the scoring only to be thwarted by good goalkeeping by Jamie Blatchford. So it was disappointing when allege foul by Rob Johns on the edge of the box resulted in Lee Blatchford scoring from the free kick.
Hayle continue to press and looked dangerous on the counter with Bell, Palmer, and Lawrence taking control of the midfield battle, a deserved equaliser came when a great run from Matty Thomas crossed for the impressive Ross Duncan who scored from close range. This took the score line to 1-1 at halftime.
After the break the visitors continue to dominate proceedings with the final ball just letting Hayle down. Once again though the home side regained the lead when a cross from Andre Rodukov found Lee Blatchford to score from 18 yards against the run of play.
The visitors attitude and determination to take something from the game came to fruition when a great cross from new signing Stu Peters found Gary Bell whose looping header found the back of the net for a deserved equaliser. Hayle continued to press and should have won the game when the workmanlike Adam Freethy missed with a header from six yards totally unmarked.

Hayle 0 Dobwalls 1
Another case of so near yet so far, in a game we could have won by a country mile we again contrived to lose 3 points by not finishing properly or trying to walk the ball into the net. We should have taken an early lead when Matt Thomas was put clear on goal after a quickly taken free kick, but his normal clinical finishing deserted him and the keeper blocked the effort. At the other end Shaun was having a quiet afternoon, with Dobwalls either shooting high or wide, or just not getting close enough to worry the defence. The second 45 saw the visiting keeper save well from a very good lob from Danny Ford which had goal written all over it, then two more good saves from Matt and Ross Duncan. Dobwalls finally beat Shaun with a bullet of a shot, which ricocheted in off the crossbar, their only real goal effort all game. So another 1-0 defeat, which at the end of the day could have been so different
Hayle 3 Truro City 2
At times it was a one man show with Shaun Carter again outstanding in goal for the home side. Taking the lead after 7 minutes when a Ross Duncan effort was deflected past the visitors defence and in off the post it looked as if this could be our day.
However Truro tried to spoil it by equalising soon after with a crisp curling shot that Carter got a hand to but couldn't quite save. Then after Danny Ford had a superb chip tipped over and Billy Curtis hit the post Andy Bowker threw in a low shot that bounced cruelly in front of the keeper to put the visitors 2-1 up at half time.
Straight out and at 'em we pressurised the visitors from the word go and had the better of the play , this didn't stop them though and a superb double save from Carter kept us on top, it took a long clearance to put Ford into space and he beat the keeper from 16 yards to equalise. Again Carter saved Hayle with two quick fire saves when it seemed odds on the visitors would score. Inspired by this the defence worked overtime to block Truro's quick attack at every opportunity. With 15 to go Ford chased down a ball and two defenders collided and he screwed the ball in from a tight angle. This again was the cue to centre stage Carter who, made two more splendid saves to keep the three points in the bag. A desperate last 5 minutes saw all hands to action to keep the visitors at bay.
Hayle 0 Callington 1
A first half penalty miss proved costly at the end of the day. Both sides started brightly enough and the respective defences were tested although neither keeper was really stretched. Callington fired in several efforts, all of which went over the bar or well past the post. With the wind at their backs the visitors seemed not to be able to cope with the conditions, and so it proved on 20 minutes Kevin Lawrence was brought down by the visiting keeper and lucky only to receive a yellow card. From the kick the keeper saved well down to his left, although the ball rebounded straight to Danny Ford he could only blaze it over the bar. The home side then took control for the next ten minutes and again Kevin appeared to be brought down in the area, but all that was given was a goal kick The second period saw Callington come out all guns blazing and after a fine save by Carter the rebound struck the Hayle post and was cleared. Again both sides created chances and Matt Thomas had a shot cleared off the line and another well saved. It was in the final throw of the dice that we were made to pay for the earlier misses when a break down the right was to prove costly the ball was whipped across the face of the goal and toe poked home.

Hayle 3 Truro City 2
Hayle 0 Helston 4
Saturday 10th December 2011
It was always going to be a difficult game against a side who had won their last 6 league games and so it proved. Early on they set out their stand and on 8 minutes took the lead when Carter could only get a hand to a right hand cross and push it straight into Eddy's path for an easy tap in. We then got our act together and for the next twenty minutes looked the better side. Chances fell to the forwards who couldn't apply the clinical touch to finish accurately. At the other end the visitors thought their birthday had come when an innocuous challenge resulted in the attacker diving and the referee falling for it to award a penalty. However Carter was once again up to the challenge and saved with his legs, Justice. Helston struck just before halftime when a defencive mix up allowed Eddy in for his second rounding the keeper and slotting home. The second 45 saw us worry the visitors defence several time and two good shouts for penalties were ignored. Helston scored the third midway through the half when a mis-hit clearance fell right to a forward and he beat Carter from close range.
The goal of the game came right on time when Eddy ran half the pitch beat 4 defenders and slotted home past an exposed Carter.
Hayle 3 Foxhole 1
Saturday 15th October 2011
Hayle avenged last week's defeat to record a comfortable victory at a sunny
Trevassack Park, and could easily have racked up several goals against Foxes
who were simply unable to get close enough to the likes of Ford and
Lawrence, the latter's presence with that of the equally diminutive referee
Howes prompting fond recollections of grainy episodes of The Borrowers. In a
breathtaking opening quarter hour, Ford tamely side-footed wide following
unselfish play from outside-left Duncan and was twice denied by fine saves
from Holland, who also spectacularly tipped over a close-range effort from
Thomas following a scramble as the home team's swift attacks up the slope
exposed the visitors' dangerously high line. However, Foxhole too had their
moments, Spaul robbing Uren on the halfway line to run clear only to fire
against the legs of Carter, while an anxious looking Harris failed to deal
with Adam Holland's hopeful punt but Cunningham's lob dropped the wrong side
of the upright.
With Hayle seemingly threatening every time they went forward, it was no
great surprise when they took the lead on twenty-two minutes. Stephen was
caught underneath a high ball, Thomas then squaring to Ford who was brought
down just inside the box by Hazeldine for Ford himself to despatch the
penalty. The unmarked Duncan should have doubled the lead within seconds,
weakly heading over Thomas' centre from six yards, the rest of the half
predominantly following a predictable pattern of attack versus defence,
although Cunningham did see a drive gathered by Carter on the half hour. To
add to visiting woes, Griffin's high foot on debutant Timmins was deemed
worthy of a caution, Uren also seeing yellow prior to the break for a crude
challenge on Spaul.
Six minutes into the second half, Shorthouse's cross from the right was
tapped home by Duncan to make it 2-0, followed shortly by Thomas somehow
being unable to convert an open goal once Lawrence's shot had rebounded
kindly to him off the legs of the keeper. With nothing to lose Foxhole did
briefly rally, Griffin choosing to head across rather than towards goal,
Trudgian's free kick being pushed away by Carter while Cunningham twice went
close, his low centre flashing across the six yard box and his lob following
a clever assist from Spaul again not struck with sufficient conviction to
find the net. Griffin's inevitable second yellow with eighteen minutes left
after a tussle with Harris, who was shown a straight red, appeared to dash
any hopes of an unlikely fightback, but the opposite was true, the Foxes
finally shortening their passing amidst a host of substitutions. Ten minutes
from time Cooper fouled Trudgian, whose subsequent spot-kick easily beat
Carter to reward the tangible improvement, but the clearer opportunities
were still to fall to Hayle, and to Thomas in particular, the striker
squandering two more golden chances before the final whistle. On
eighty-seven, Roberts' brilliant thirty-yarder flew past Holland to seal the
points, there still being time for Lawrence to toe-poke wide Palmer's deep
cross from virtually on the line to deny the home team the scoreline their
overall superiority probably warranted.

Holsworthy V Hayle 24/09/11
We travelled to our neighbouring county on Saturday to play a Holsworthy team that are always difficult to beat on their own ground, all players and staff were delighted to return to Cornwall with all three points.
Conditions were pretty perfect although the playing surface was very soft, both teams were a credit to their clubs as played some decent football.
The opening 20 minutes was pretty frantic affair with both midfields battling it out to control the game. Shaun Carter in the Hayle goal had very little to do apart from one noticable save from the Holsworthy striker on the 20 minute mark, the visitors always threatened when going forward with Duncan, Richards and Lawrence being prominent in attack.
It was Ross Duncan who fed Shane Richards on the 25 minutes, the striker seemed to go too wide of the goal, but he sweetly struck a left foot drive under the body of Ryan Walters for a deserved lead. With Hayle still attacking it didn’t seem long before we added the 2nd.
The 2nd half continued in the same vain, with Bell, Roberts and Cadman holding the midfield together and picking up some good 2nd balls, even though we have some decent possession we lacked a cutting edge to finish the game off, Richards had a great chance on 55 minutes only to see his shot rebound off the post and cleared to safety.
Once again it was Ross Duncan causing the home defence concern, the speedy winger unleashed a shot from 18 yards into Walters bottom left corner after good work from Cadman.
The 2-0 lead didn’t last long, as some sloppy defending saw the Holsworthy midfielder Paul Banks score from close range. With 15 minutes remaining the home side applied some pressure but were unable to convert them into what would have been an underserved equaliser.

Hayle V Plymstock
Hayle entertained an improving Plymstock side who had an encouraging result
against Dobwalls midweek. The home side made one enforced from their game
against Porthleven with Matty Thomas (Hamstring) being replaced by Shane
Richards, who had recently signed from the Fisherman.
With weather conditions resembling a winter's afternoon at Trevassack Park,
free flowing football didn't seem to be on the menu, but both sides played
their part in an entertaining afternoon.
The visitors began the match a lot brighter with numerous attacks being
channelled down the left, with the U's striker Craig Holt playing a major
part. Shaun Carter once again showed why is has the Number 1 shirt with a
series of good saves, he was unable to do anything with Plymstock's opener,
Holt surged into the box and drilled the ball home from ten yards for a
deserved lead. This was a wake call for the home side and from here on Hayle
dominated the game. Kevin Lawrence who was outstanding throughout equalised
on the half an hour mark when Shane Richards crossed for Lawrence, he beat
two defenders and sent the ball crashing into the back of the net. The home
side counter attacked well and it was the lively Ross Duncan who ran into
the boxed only to fouled by their centre half, resulting in a penalty,
skipper Gary Bell stepped up and drilled home the spot kick, making the
score line 2-1 at half time.
After the break the similar pattern continued with the home side breaking
with real menace, Richards, Lawrence, and Duncan causing the visitors
defence problems, Adam Palmer who had a storming game at left back fed the
industrious Frasier Cadman, he then slotted a ball to Lawrence who made no
mistake from 8 yards. The visitors always looked a threat at set pieces but
found Rob Johns and Jo Cooper in commanding form. The game was finally put
to rest on the 65minute mark when Richards once again linked well with
Lawrence who scored from 5 yards to make the score 4-1. The home side made
several changes but Lawrence had not finished his scoring spree and left his
best goal to last, the pocket size battleship jinked in and out of two
defenders and sent the ball crashing to the keeping left to complete the
rout.

Wadebridge v Hayle
We travelled to Bodieve Park Wadebridge, last Saturday in good spirits after
a fine performance at Helston in midweek. We made one enforced change with
Adam Freethy being unavailable due to work commitments, replaced by Jason
Roberts returning from injury.
On a dry hard pitch both sides began the game at a high tempo, with Hayle
looking dangerous from the outset, Kevin Lawrence and Ross Duncan being
prominent in attack. Wadebridge also had their early moments but the Hayle
defence stood firm, Shaun carter was called into action on the 15mintue mark
when he saved well from Cudmore. The flow of the game was edged by the
visitors, and it came to no surprise when we opened the scoring, it was
great work down the right flank by Lawrence who found the in form striker
Matty Thomas, he showed quick feet in the 18 yard box to drilled past the
advancing keeper. Even though the Bridger's worked hard throughout they will
be disappointed with their general play in the final third, at the breakdown
we continued to dominate and Hayle found themselves 2-0 to the good, it was
another great delivery from Kevin Lawrence who picked out Jason Roberts who
smashed the ball pass the keeper for a great finish. With the visitors
coasting it was disappointing to concede a penalty soon after, Rob Johns who
played well throughout brought down the player after a poor challenge, the
player brushed himself off and scored from the resulting spot kick.
Hayle was not to be undone as their was still time for another goal before
the break, their was some good work between Mark Uren and Lawrence down the
right, a foul was committed by Bridger's defender, the industrious Frasier
Cadman took the free kick with great precision and picked out Jack Parton to
head home from 8 yards. To give us a 3-1 lead into half time.
After the break both sides lost their way a little with the Bridger's seeing
a little more of the ball, at times we were under pressure with some sloppy
passing being our downfall, once again their final ball letting the home
side down.
We always looked a constant threat going forward with Matty Thomas working
the line really well. The game fizzled out in the 2nd half which suited the
visitors as they picked up their first win of the campaign.

On Monday we battled out a 2-2 home draw against Porthleven. Jo Cooper and
Ross Duncan both getting their first goals of the season. Even though we
conceded an injury time goal, Porthleven were good value for their point
after a fine first half display.
Helston v Hayle
After a disappointing result at Doballs on the opening day of the season, we
found ourselves travelling to newly promoted JCCL Champions Helston
Athletic, they had tremendous 5-1 win against Plymstock and started their
league campaign in fine form.
Unfortunately for this match we lost the services of first choice keeper
Shaun Carter(work) and Jason Roberts (Injured).
Preparation was far from ideal with players having trouble fighting through
the summer traffic, fortunately this did not hamper what was too follow in
the next 90mins.
Both sides began in a frantic manner with Helston settling to the pace of
the game a little better, we found ourselves lacking some belief and
composure, you could see that confidence was a little dented after
Saturday's game. Helston boasted two forwards in Mark Goldsworthy and Liam
Eddy who had genuine pace and it was very pleasing how the defence coped
throughout the game with these two front runners.
We finally settled after 15mins and began to compete in all the areas around
the pitch. It was unfortunate we conceded the opening goal after 18mins
against the run of play. Heston's central defender sent a long ball forward,
this eluded Jack Parton and fell in the path of Liam Eddy, Parton did
extremely well to block the initial shot only for the ball to rebound off
his shoulder and back to Eddy who calmly slotted the ball home past the
impressive Ryan Gendall.
We looked slightly deflated after the goal but it didn't take us long to get
back playing some good football, with Bell, Cadman, and Freethy prominent in
midfield. As the half went on we became the dominant force and got our just
rewards on the 30minutes which saw a five man move and a tremendous team
goal with Matty Thomas finishing from 10yards into the top right corner.
Hayle continued to press with Ross Duncan and Kevin Lawerence causing major
damage down both flanks. Half Time Score 1-1
The second half began in the same vain with Helston starting well and
pressing hard, but the Hayle back five were playing extremely well, Ryan
Gendall on debut only had to deal with a couple of long range efforts and
was solid throughout. At the other end Hayle always looked dangerous on the
attack with Thomas working very hard for the team and was very unlucky not
to add to his tally for the evening. As the game progressed it became a
little scrappy has tempers flared, this resulted in Bell and Freethy seeing
Yellow, and it was Freethy who was sent his marching orders on 75mins with
another booking, it looked very harsh from the touchlines. Credit has to go
to the whole team who stuck to their job after being reduced to Ten men and
gained a valuable point away from Home.
