The opening goal came after 20 minutes when a deep free kick saw David Standing direct back across goal for Thomas Phillips to header the ball into the top corner.

10 Minutes later Gavin Boom scored yet again to double ‘The Well’s’ advantage… This lead however was short lived as a needless free-kick was given away, which resulted in Steve Kellow snatching a goal back. The tied of the game had turned, and 5 minutes later Luke Kelland fired home after some careless defending and the game tied back again. Perranwell had dominated the majority of first half but full credit to Falmouth Athletic for taking there chances.

Going into the second half and both sides struggled to find the breakthrough. Until, with 10 minutes to go, some great play by Matt Rose down the left wing resulted in the ball being cut back to Samuel Phillips who volleyed home the winning goal to take all 3 points!

Perranwell 3-0 Wendron

Gavin Boon Boon Boon

Perranwell looked to continue their best run of the season against 6th place Wendron.   It was the home side who started off the strongest and it was with no surprise that Gavin Boom opened up the scoring thanks to a long Luke Brabyn throw which skimmed off Boon’s head and into the back of the net.

The second goal was a stunning free kick from the lethal striker who placed a low drilled shot past un-sighted keeper. 

The second half saw Perranwell continue to dominate. The next goal was always going to be the crucial one and at last it came with Gavin Boom stealing the show and scoring his first Hat-trick of the season with a well taken shot inside the area.

This game also marked the end of ‘The Well’ Perranwell’s matchday programme.

Match of the Season.

The Village side dominated the half and could have easily been 2 or 3 goals ahead. 

With two minutes till half time a deep penryn free kick to the back post was headed back into the path of Former Perranwell Player Steve Allen who couldn’t miss from inches out. Despite Perranwell’s claims the ball had originally crossed the line for a goal kick.. questions were asked at half time about the poor defending.

Perranwell came out in the second half looking to swing the tie around. 15 minutes in and they finally got their reward…. with Gavin Boom scoring yet again! 

With both sides looking to find the Winning goal.. and Penryn’s title hopes lying in the balance… it was Matt Rose who provided the moment of the season with a leaping header at the back post which put the local village side into raptures!

Penryn dominated the last 5 minutes but despite coming close on several occasions were unable to find that equalizing goal.

A fantastic team performance that resulted in a fully deserved 3 points against the leagues number one side.

Perranwell 2-2 St Day

Two sides battling it out at the bottom half of the table put on a great show as both teams fought there way back to end sharing the spoils. Perranwell also welcomed back Shane Richards who left the club in the Summer.

Perranwell dominated the first half and it was a swift move on 35 minutes by Gavin Boom who’s low shot could only be parried into the path of Liam Paddock to put the Well 1 nil up with yet another goal. Chances were limited leading up to the second half as the teams went in to re-group.

The second half started off well Perranwell, and they had numerous chances to put the game to bed which turned out to prove quite costly. Perranwell even had the ball in the back of the net twice but they were ruled out for offside.

With 10 minutes to go it was looking like Perranwell’s hopes of at least a point out of the game were looking slim , but they battled on and it was Matt Rose who from the edge of the box somehow curved a low shot into the bottom corner with a little help from a fine David Standing dummy.

With Minutes to go Perranwell pushed for the winning goal but in the end had to settle for the one point and could only think about what could have been. 

A great game played fairly and contested well by both sides.

Midweek games start this week as Perranwell travel to newly Promoted Falmouth Athletic.

Perranwell 1-2 Illogan

Dom Pullen returned to St George V playing fields for the first since his summer move from the Well, and was on hand to help help Illogan collect all 3 points.

Both teams started the game off brightly but it was Mr Pullen who put Illogan one nil up mid way through the first half with a low drilled shot which went neatly under the on-coming goalie. Perranwell had chances to draw level but they were lacking the finishing touch that they warranted. Illogan constantly pressed but The Well’s defense did well to keep the score at 1 nil going into the second half.

Perranwell finally got their equalizing goal with 15 minutes to go with a superb one on one finish by in-form striker Liam Paddock. It was looking like the game was going to end as a stalemate , but deep into stoppage time a dubious free kick given to illogan 25 yards outside the box, somehow crept into the bottom corner by Ian Cullingham to give the away side all 3 points.

Perranwell may have felt that they deserved at least a point against one of the strongest teams in the division but it wasn’t to be and they will have to move on to St Day at home next week
