It's already been reported on here the troubles that Taunton have had this season with postponements and financial problems. They were threatened with a winding-up petition but they have since settled their tax bills. However, their pitch problems continue, as do those of Truro, who have been playing at Plymouth Parkway since 2021. Conditions there aren't much better and a string of postponements led them to arrange a temporary groundshare at, believe it or not, Taunton. Fixtures are piling up for both clubs, especially Truro. Saturday's game between them, nominally a home fixture for Truro, will be played at Gloucester.
Truro abandoned their Treyew Road ground in 2018 for a spell at Torquay but returned in early 2019. The ground has now been built on but work has finally started on a new stadium at Threemilestone and the club hopes to be able to move in this autumn, although it's likely that some of the buildings will be temporary for a while.
Distances from Treyew Road:
_56 Plymouth Parkway
_92 Torquay United
125 Taunton Town
196 Gloucester City
