East End Old Boy Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Not an expert, so putting it out there. The pitch has been replaced every summer, since I don’t know when. Would it last for two seasons to the same quality as we’re currently used to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't imagine there was any time with the concerts I remember wondering last summer if they had as there were no photos released like we used to have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lrrr Posted March 26, 2020 Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 Hard to do so when you don't know when you'll be asked to restart as it needs a minimum of 6 weeks, if the FA keeps delaying any restart by 4/5 weeks then you can't be sure the pitch will be ready. One club (pretty sure it was a premier league club) has re-laid theirs in this break but they were on it straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Maesknoll Red Posted March 26, 2020 Admin Report Share Posted March 26, 2020 I guess it all depends on the condition it is in, the financial constraints, the return to a semblance of normality, unless it was raising huge concerns or the grounds man knows it cannot last another season, then I guess it won’t be a priority.

RedM Posted March 27, 2020 Report Share Posted March 27, 2020 I think talking about replanting the pitch is a positive thing. The hope that it will be new beginnings and we have something to look forward to...even if it is the first sighting of Lee with his grass measuring thing putting his thumbs up as we can have football again!
