New Pitch to be relaid this Summer

Postby Kent_UckyFriedGills » Mon Mar 31, 2014 12:48 pm

The Club are going to invest £50,000+ on a New playing surface this summer to help our passing game next season.The pitch was last relaid 10 seasons ago,and has lasted well.Going from the article it looks like Taylor has the job for next season aswell.

That certainly sounds the case, unless Scally would only consider managers who would play that way. Very exciting and it has done very well. Considering how much use it gets Wembley has had hundreds since then!!!

I was concerned when the ground staff left. There didn't seem all that much interest but with the atrocious weather we had, they have done a superb job!

I think our pitch as it is,is certainly one of the best in the League.I thought the Wolves and Swindon games would both be postponed,but our groundsman did a fantastic job.I was quite annoyed when John Gregory said before our game with Crawley,that the pitch would be poor.He certainly had not seen the pitch.£50,000 is not a bad investment as it will be fine for another 10 years,and will help our passing game.
