5:10am It's whacking it down

Decent first game to warm up to. 10th of Jan v Hull Away (Championship) 31st of Jan v Hull Home (Championship) So Hull game FA cup 3rd round 10th-11th Jan will be replaced.... with the Hull game lol

Yes Please 💙🤍

This is what I wanted to see off him. A bite back at the hierarchy. Are there better managers than Val? Of course there is. Can I get behind someone that fights for the club and fans? You're damn right. Perhaps now they can finally see that not only are the fans against them, the players are unhappy and now their 'shopfloor yes man' is having a pop. I'd keep Val another season based on his pushbacks.

Whos for a pint in the Winchester?

Believe it or not pitch drainage is a relatively simple system. Everything relies on gravity and heating. Though the heating element is complex and is additional to aiding pitch drying, the actual framework of drains is simple. Literally just pipes angled at intervals across the pitch. What we don't know is if it all goes one way toward the Riverside or if its 'spidered' and/or arched and joins drains surrounding the pitch to eventually end up in the River Darwen. Suspicion is that they need replacing. As the holes eventually clog up thus creating a plug or they've subsided OR the rain fall genuinely can't cope on the pitch. (More drain lengths, wider drains, mesh footing base needed)

Suddenly? I've always been a pitch drainage expert

No one can stop those. Class finish

Find it quite shameful that you weren't down there at 6.30am checking it. Pfffft call yourself a fan... 😆😆😊😊

Haha I'm no way superior mate not at all and don't claim to be hahah 😆

Summer of 2018

Landscaping boards for the equipment. Turf can be 'hinged' if you will, on one side and work carried out

Is there anything actually coming out of the outlet?

Also could be done without removing all the turf

A trench installed to angle water down to a tank between the Riverside and BBE with pumps on standby before during and after the game. Angle the the run off toward the trench with new pipes installed. They've either become clogged, or they've perished. Only real option is to put new pipes intermittently, something that can be done during a break that can see our season out until a proper revamp is scheduled in the off season

Off the pitch 🤷‍♂️

Ahahaha surprised my sarcastic brain didn't think of that one 😆😆

Pitch directly behind the changing rooms is the worse pitch to play on in my experience

So free, out of principal and understanding the fans. Will never happen with this lot. Take everything from us and give us fevk all in return I don't know why we bother

Aye, also 5 min down the road I knew yesterday morning it's wasn't gonna be happening for us down there

Why do you always have the opposite opinion of everyone else🤣 You're opinion is completely your own i just find it hilarious fair play for standing by your opinion but it is funny lol
