Title: Our Pitch
Post by: STFC_Gazza on Sunday, December 28, 2008, 19:17:09
Is it just me or does our pitch look shit hot. Got to be in with a shout for pitch of the season so far. The surface seems perfect and no sand needed in the goal mouths or centre circles like a lot of teams

Don Rogers Shop, in the agricultural industry "shit" is also known as "fertiliser".

I do like the pitch but I would like to see some nice patterns in the grass.

I would also like us to go back to old style goal nets as I don't like the box ones anymore.

No, lets look for the most insignificant little positive possible and talk about it.

Our shirts are a nice shade of red and the team doesnt get them dirty.

Insignificant perhaps, but we have a shit record against BHA recently anyway so... the loss is hardly a surprise. To me It starts in 2 weeks time. Wilson has plenty of time to look over the squad and suss out what we need and leave his mark. Thats when judgement can start. YES It pisses me off that no one apart from JP wanted to impress the new manager but fuck it game on in 2 weeks time.

On the subject of shirts, not only was Brighton's neon blue kit absolutely hideous, but it was very unflattering.

It made them all look rather rotund.

I have seen worse away shirts. Plymouth Tangerine effort a couple of years ago was diabolical.

Any lawn with that much shit on it every week will grow well and look that good

Only problem with a decent pitch, is every other team that come here use it to their advantage and pass round us. Bring back the mudbowl, we might get a few wins!

Was saying today how good the pitch was looking, fair play to the groundsman

  Only having 1 early season cup game on it has helped...

Post by: reeves4england on Sunday, December 28, 2008, 22:01:50
The pitch does look decent. Hopefully Wilson will use that to our advantage with his propsed attacking play, rather than us having to watch 90 minutes of "long ball" every other week

I was told today its now on the shortlist for best pitch in country.

Still got a chance of silverware this season then,I might break in and ruin it later out of spite.

Jeeeeez lighten up! So what if people want to look at a few 'minor' positives for a change? Just because you're all doom and gloom 24/7 doesn't mean we all have to be!

Anyway, back on topic.....The pitch looks fan-fucking-tastic indeed. Here's hopin we take advantage of this now we have someone at the helm who is willing to play good football!

Citys "gold" kit a few years back was possible the worst I had ever seen!

I think Brizzle rovers pink kit eclipses that "effort"

There are lots of factors to the pitch being so good this season.

Marcus Cassidy is now working for Swindon only and not just 14 hours a week.

Sturrock used to HAVE TO train on the pitch and not at the training ground.

New mowers, other equipment and a good growing program were followed in the close season.

And 1 thing that has really helped us is that, have we actually played on it when it's been raining???

Triseros isn't answering as he was hammered last night.

City had a purple shirt and lime green shorts number that was pretty objectionable.

I'd take shitty boring long ball over 'good attacking play' if it means we will win games.

our pitch is excellent this season,but is nowhere near the best in the country.
