I'd agree totally with ya on this. People bulsh1t on about the state of the pitch and the ground but yet they don't turn up to help.
How can someone say "Many many people have tried helping the club but never get anywhere" Simple as this, you go in and help out, its not as if you are looking for recognition, you do it for the good of the club.

well we all hear different stories, dont we?

Not for one minute Rovers1 would I think that you'd be the type of person to listen to stories ;-)

The UEFA Champions League final between Manchester United and Chelsea will be played on a Moscow pitch installed by an Irish company, who's CEO is from Sligo.

The historic match at the Luzhniki Stadium will take place on a natural grass pitch constructed by Support In Sport (SIS), the company with offices in Sligo, Cumbria (UK) and Holland.

Sligo man, George Mullan is Chief Executive Officer of the company.

It's the fourth time SIS have installed a UEFA Champions League Final pitch.

Just like to make the point that the two lads that are now working at improving the surface are doing a great job. Over time these lads will prove what has been said here so many times and that's if you have someone doing the job that knows what they are doing then they will make a difference.
Well done lads - keep up the great work!!!!!!!

Yeah it's improved a lot but that�s what those lads do for a living so you would expect it to but maybe if a certain board member mentioned in this thread already hadn't refuse to have it rolled it wouldn't become such a joke in the first place
