TRURO City go into the last day of the National League South season knowing that a good win at home against St Albans City should secure them the title and promotion.

- by RICHARD HUGHES

After Good Friday's 1-0 home defeat by Torquay United, Truro went to Weston-super-Mare on Easter Monday and won 2-0 to keep themselves ahead of Paul Wotton’s Gulls on goal difference.

Now, with one game to go, the Tinners are in pole position for the one automatic promotion spot.

"Everything again has gone in our favour - obviously the other results and us getting a win today puts it back in our court," said manager John Askey.
