But for Askey, it more than vindicates what was seen as one of the most surprising non-league managerial appointment of last summer.
The former Port Vale and Shrewsbury Town manager has had great success in the fifth and sixth tiers. He led Macclesfield Town to the National League title in 2018 and guided York City to promotion from National League North in 2022.
But he had never managed a club based further south than Shrewsbury and never led a side in National League South – let alone one that had just moved to a new ground and had no idea about how many people would turn out to watch them.
So what has been the secret of his success?
“I think having honest players is a big thing,” he said.
“The things that Truro have to put up with regards the travelling, training facilities, it’s probably the most honest group of players I’ve ever had. They’re amazing.
“To have achieved what they’ve achieved, that’s probably why it gives me as much pleasure with this as it as with any promotion that I’ve had.
“Whatever club you go to you want to do well because it means a lot to supporters and means a lot to people who were running the football club, and obviously it means a lot to myself to win something.”
