in 2008 someone cant invent a cover that can keep the rain of a pitch!I know clubs like Swindon cant afford drainage etc like Reading and with a possible move in the future investing big money for a drainage system would be a waste of cash,but surely there must be a way of protecting the pitch against the rain.
There are plenty of options available but they are costly!! Remember the Brumbrella at Warwickshire cricket ground and I believe Brizzle Rovers hired something similar to cover their pitch on Wednesday. Unfortunately, although it keeps the water off the pitch it still has to drain away!!
cost Rovers £45,000
