sailor_h Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 Does anyone else think the pitch is in some mess compared to the last day last season? I’ve heard that it’s a brand new pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MFCL84 Posted July 23, 2023 Report Share Posted July 23, 2023 I noticed that it looked a bit patchy. Seems to play well enough though and didn't cut up. Time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 From where I was sitting in the POD Stand, it looked to be in exellent condition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve heard that it’s a brand new pitch. The pitch was not replaced during the close season this year, it looked in excellent shape to me. Viewed from the POD, for me it's one of the best surfaces in the league now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretzel Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 It had lots of blotchy patches for sure, I have no idea what causes that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 Pitch looked excellent from the Hunter Stand. Am I missing something here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, my first comment to my mates on Saturday (well apart from 3 terrible jokes) was that pitch looked excellent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to have blotchy bits all over but I'm sure it'll be back to the best soon enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted July 24, 2023 Report Share Posted July 24, 2023 It's changed days when the only complaint about our pitch is that some bits of grass are a slightly different shade of green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weeyin Posted August 20, 2023 Report Share Posted August 20, 2023 Watching the Aston Villa game and noticed that like a lot of clubs, including ourselves, they have artificial turf between the edge of the grass pitch and the walls at the front of the stands. The difference is they used a brown colour to make it look like an old-school track. It's a nice touch, as I always think wall to wall green looks a bit weird.
