How Gloucester City's ground looked in 2007:

Should have got Yeovil's pitch seeing as they are not using it!

That announcement reads as all remaining home matches, not just against Taunton.

At least it's National North League standard so, as long as they can afford the cost of hire, travel and loss of support, that will suit Truro until the new ground is ready. As for Taunton??

I think it reads Truro are keeping their powder dry. Their primary aim is to survive at the level until their new ground is ready. Playing home games at Taunton costs them £££, at Gloucester ££££ more. Lots of expense and minimal income. I hope things work out for them and, preferably, the next time we go that far west we don't play as though we've got jet-lag.

Yeovil Manager had quite a lot to say on the situation, and slagged off the National League for allowing Truro's initial sharing at:
'the worst pitch in the country, and then letting them second share with the second worst pitch in the country'. 'They then let them share with a club plying on plastic, instead of grass, when clubs have to nominate at the start of the season the surface that they play on' (didn't know Gloucester was using 3/4G)
Haven't checked, but I assume by that that Yeovil still have to go to Truro/Gloucester?
Not impressed with the National League then sir?

Truro have moved Saturday's match against Chelmsford to Gloucester as well... Thing is Gloucester are also playing at home on Saturday so the kick off has been bumped to 7:30. It looks like Truro will be fulfilling the rest of their home fixtures on the 4G at Gloucester now!
