CORNISH SOCCER talking football!

RAPPO & DEACS, Series 2, Episode 2 Friday, August 9 2019 Firstly, thanks for all the listeners to our opening show of the new season. Over 400 is a healthy start! After last week’s bumper episode, we carry on with the focus on the Peninsula League, but also, we introduce you to the new St Piran League via its secretary Steve Carpenter. So, in total this week we have three managers, two players and two league secretaries and all very much worth a listen. By popular demand we’ve also got another “quick 10 question” section for Rappo to answer! After all, we’re here to enjoy talking about football and having a laugh along the way.

RAPPO & DEACS, (AUDIO LEVELS TWEAKED) Series 2, Episode 1 Friday, August 2 2019 Hello everyone, this is the first episode of the second series of the RAPPO & DEACS Friday Fix and what a bumper episode it is! The whole concept of the weekly podcast is to try and make it as entertaining and fun as possible, with friends around the Duchy and sometimes further afield, talking football. That’s the local stuff (well, apart from Rappo’s Bet of the Week)! With this one, the start of a new season, we’ve made it a bumper edition. Five managers and one player, all from the South West Peninsula League which starts on Tuesday. We’ve also thrown in a “quick 10 question” section – this week Rappo is answering, or attempting to, but in future we’ll be hoping to get some of you to do so. I really loved some of Rappo’s answers – even if they were way out from being correct! Remember, the beauty of the podcast is that you can stop listening at any time and then return at a convenient time later.

It’s the weekly podcast featuring local clubs, managers and players with two local football geeks! 😀👍

When earlier this week Helston Athletic FC announced that they were giving contracts to some of their players, there were a few around the place that couldn't see why! CORNISH SOCCER caught up with the Blues manager Steve Massey at the Arts Cafe, Truro Museum to hear more about the thinking behind the idea. If you should be listening to this via the Anchor Podcast app, lets hear your thoughts by leaving a voice message Dave Deacon (CORNISH SOCCER)

Another episode in the CORNISH SOCCER Podcast series of trips down memory lane with pure nostalgia, this time with John Dent. John played and went on to manage in the local game for well over 40 years. With such a long, esteemed time in the game, we could have no doubt talked for ages, however in this episode we concentrated on his time as a youngster with his home town club Plymouth Argyle; his “Twin Towers Wembley” memories and of course when he both played and later became manager at his favourite local club – Falmouth Town.  Good times, emotional recollections  and great characters discussed and so take a listen and enjoy. My thanks go to John for sparing the time and giving all us local football supporters an hour of pure nostalgia!

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.
