Doesn’t look great in the background of the post-match interviews. Hope it wasn’t played on too early after the re-seed.

Got another two weeks until the next game, and only two games in the next five weeks so it'll be fine.

And looks like Chuds was right, looking at the groundsman’s photos on the club’s twitter the pitch now looks excellent!

Pitch has been beautiful for a good while. NOT like the old days eh?!

Buzzing to get back into L1 football at home tomorrow. Great day for it. Memo to self: sunnies and suncream or fry on ET!

Second memo to self: not too many pre-match ales or Old Town Live could be a challenge afterwards lol

Yep, bit of an improvement on the sixties pitch that just had a bit of grass in the corners, frequently postponed games and the orange flashing light on the tall North-East floodlight pylon that could be seen over most of the town to indicate “game off”. Didn’t need twitter then!

No. I once attended a function in the winter and went out on the South goalmouth. Was like how I've seen WW1 Flanders portrayed!

Never seen so many players throwing themselves to the floor at the slightest touch. Ref lapping it up.
