Attention: Please take a moment to consider our terms and conditions before posting.

Should the club..................

be looking to make money renting out the pitch post season?
The pitch is diabolical/an embarressment and may have cost us a chance for the playoffs.
At the very least you would expect your club to provide an excellent playing surface considering what they charge to watch games played on it.

    Hope not it needs digging up and re laying as soon as possible after the Bristol game.

    It is re-seeded after it is rented out so no reason not to, if anybody fancies playing on it that is! Looks like the pitch has been sorted anyway by the photos in the ad!

    Lets hope we don't have a wet summer then like last year which apparently caused a lot of the seed to be washed away :-(

    when they say "hallowed turf' are they referring to the only green bits left in the goal mouths at each end?? :)

    The pitch is usually relaid in the summer , it wasn't last year which is why it's so bad this season. I would be very surprised if it isn't again this summer.

    A sign of the times perhaps?

    It's un uphill battle turf I can tell you. Although my problem is compounded by the daughters cat crapping and pissing all over it. The whole point of having a cat is that it does it doins in the neighbours garden. I can't kill it mainly because I would never get away with it.

    Still at least Paddy don't have that to deal with.

    Soapy you have hit on just the problem I have. How the feck does a cat know which garden is which??? Our moggies dump where they choose and despite my showing them the plans of Chateau LA with the boundaries clearly marked, they insist in dumping in the flowerbeds. It exasperates all the gardeners:-)
