we put a bit of sand on it. It was lengthened a while ago and will be made wider in the future. afaik we had some top groundsman who worked for free but he was let go. no prizes for guessing who let him go!

[sligoman]

afaik we had some top groundsman who worked for free but he was let go. no prizes for guessing who let him go!Are you on about the guy who did Wembley? He was only there to take a sample of the pitch for free, he wasn't working on the pitch.

[Rovers fan]

Are you on about the guy who did Wembley? He was only there to take a sample of the pitch for free, he wasn't working on the pitch.

Ya thats the guy. Oh right somebody told me a wrong version of the story so.

[DonalE]

Ya thats the guy. Oh right somebody told me a wrong version of the story so.

[Rovers fan]

Maybe you picked it up wrong ;)

[clubman]

Ah go on name and shame :-)

[Rovers fan]

"I'm near sure sligoman is thinkin of a different story

few weeks ago someone took samples of the pitch for free just for tests

I heard this about 2 years ago. this fella wasnt workin for the club. he said he could do it for free but wasnt let/ornot approached

im nearly sure im right". Quoted from the pm the unnamed person sent! I wouldn't take that sligoman!

I wouldn't take that sligoman!Well the guy who did the pitch at Wembley took samples of the showgrounds pitch about 3-4 weeks ago. He did it for free after RG allowed him. Said soil underneath is perfect and just the top that needed doing. I never said he was working for the club, that was you, if this person thinks I'm wrong why don't they say it here rather than PM'ing others behind my back.

Sligoman you are 100% correct in what you say.

[deecay]

behind my back.
Your not a girl and you dont attend college in America so you cannot use that phrase

[sligoman]

Your not a girl and you dont attend collage in America so you cannot use that phrase:confused:, only college people in America use that do they? I'm fairly sure it's a worldwide phrase.
