I see The Evil is reporting (sic) that the pitch issues last year were due to them using '...the wrong type of sand...' when laying the pitch.
Now if there's one thing you'd think their Arab owners would know about....
since they got their new ground we've been promoted reached a cup semi final won a league, won a cup, rebuilt a ground, improved the training ground, brought a rugby team, got them promoted relegated and promoted again,
thats all before they laid a brick on their new ground
One of the sad Sags on SagChat commented:
"Problem is if the club release artists impressions of what is most likely going to look like the West tent the club would be a laughing stock."
Who's gonna tell him that this particular horse (apt analogy intended) has already bolted?
Selby will win this fight.
Warrington has little power and Selby is by a country mile the superior boxer. It might be an unedifying spectacle though tbh.
They've already relaid using Fibresand and I hope, like one or two nags I've backed in my time, they're as useless on the all-weather as they are on turf. ...
2nd post on that gaschat thread about the new tent
deluded half-wit!!

The gas getting more than 9500 happened just 6 times last season, and 4 of those were clubs with what I assume was a pretty good away following (Plymouth, Pompey, Blackburn, Oxford) - The other two were their first and last home league games of the season.
EXACTLY NONE OF THESE were midweek/night games - but lets never let FACT get in the way of more gas bullshit about attendances.
If they actually had more of their own fans turn up instead of relying on good away support - worrying about 9500 capacity might be worth doing.
Dear god, are they trying to kill us with laughter?
Another bloody tent?? LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!

'Coming for us' mind!
It's never been a problem to me, largely thanks to my survival training in the Boy Scouts years ago... Motto 'Be Prepared'...
That why I always have a bag of gob-stoppers in me pocket.... Haven't been gobbed on yet, so it's good advice, dib dib dob.
(come to think of it, I've never been booted in the ging gang goollies either, and my woggle is still in good nick! )
Yes it is me, seriously need to get better fitting trousers.
i don’t have quite as fond memories of the day as the rest of you but it was certainly memorable and a very long shift .
