City play the first of three consecutive matches on the road as John Askey’s side travel to Welling United on Saturday – 3.00pm.

The Tinners are unbeaten on their travels since early September with a win over Aveley and draws at Farnborough and Slough the reward, since losing 1-0 at Twerton Park to Bath City.

Truro travel to South East London second in the table after a home draw against Chippenham on Tuesday. The home side Welling will be looking to bounce back after suffering consecutive four goal defeats to Chippenham (4-0) and Eastbourne (4-1).

Last time the two sides met in DA16, the Wings were victors by the odd goal in five. Dan Sullivan gave City a deserved first half lead before Gene Kennedy levelled just after the turnaround.

And the hosts completely turned the game on its head when Sonny Fish scored a second for Rod Stringer’s side.

However, Truro levelled things up with a fine strike from Tyler Harvey but 14 minutes from time, a rocket from Anthony Papadopoulos handed the hosts a 3-2 triumph.

The Ground

Park View Road is a mix of old new and traditional football stadium charm.

A classic grandstand runs about three quarters of the pitch and this houses the dugouts, hospitality and press areas.

Opposite, is a relatively modern all-seated East Stand, in which the dressing rooms are situated. Next to the stand is the base of Erith & Belvedere FC, who share the ground with Welling.

Both ends of the ground are open terraces, similar to that found at Bath City’s Twerton Park. The bigger of the two terraces is the Danson Park End, which houses away fans when segregation is in operation.

There will be no segregation enforced on Saturday so once inside the stadium, fans are able to stand (or sit) where they please.

The High Street End backs onto the main road and this is the favoured home end.

All the usual football food and drink is available with a fanzone marquee outside the ground too.
