Worth reading the article on the BBC site about the state of this Blue Square South Club as similarities exist or have existed with ourselves. A striking example of competing beyond your means. A wage bill of £25k per month and an average gate of just 330 !

One of the main reasons why Cornwall has never had a football league club - hamstrung by the geographical location. Although Boston isn't as remote, it is often an over-looked factor and must be given due consideration when considering our progress.

Truro have survived for now but I think it will be difficult for them to sustain the level they are currently at.
