HODGES KEEPING FINGERS CROSSED AS MASSEY DECLARES INTEREST

Truro City boss Lee Hodges admitted that he fears yesterday's away trip to Chelmsford City could be the club's last if they fail to find a new owner by the October 11th deadline set by the Football Conference.

Should the White Tigers will be expelled from the Blue Square South if a new owner is not found by that date and former Truro manager Steve Massey, who was in charge at Treyew Road between 2004 and 2006, has already declared an interest in buying the club.

Many players have already left Treyew Road and the remainder of Hodges' squad could be set to leave after Tuesday's game with Bath City.

"I'm still keeping my fingers crossed, holding out for that phone call that someone wants to buy the club and we'll have something to look forward to." said Hodges.

The White Tigers were beaten 3-2 yesterday by Chelmsford after making the 334 mile round trip to Essex yesterday after setting off from Truro in the early hours as they couldn't afford an overnight stay.
