Is that the main pitch waterlogged or the warm up pitch?

Funnily enough, the second pitch was in better condition than the main pitch when the last match was called off.

I told them last season the pitch was way too hard, it must be rolled 10 times a day.
Should have listened to the fountain of knowledge :p

Thats a disgrace, why can't ye play the game on the second pitch? It has adequate lighting :D:p
Could ye not just switch back to Mt Mels for a night? Is it still there BTW?

Apparently vandals have broken in St Mels on a regular basis over the past year, and have made some minor improvements.

Won't be next week as far as I know as we have someone coming to do some pitch maintainance on Monday to get it ready for the winter and it needs at least five days rest after that is complete

Pitch is perfect this morning and the two groundsmen are working on it the last two days to prepare it for any heavy monsoon style rain we might get up there over the next few days

Lot of rain down here last night and raining again this morning. Didnt go out on to the main pitch but the coast guard was circling the back pitch at training yesterday

Not 'picky,' - petty. There's a subtle difference which no one really explained to us. :p
