On the FGR preview with Hursty it looked like it was getting chopped up quite a bit... ??? Any particular reason ??? All my pictures , Seem to fade to black and white.... (Reg Dwight)

The pitch would have been very wet and I was surprised it was used for training really. The groundsman must have been over the moon.

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

We've used the all weather at Bradley before. *until someone gets injured

I'm sure the groundsman will have the last say about what training , if any , goes ahead on the pitch. The Future is Black & White.
