I've just seen the Carlisle boss is blaming our pitch for his sides loss...

Now, I think he may have a point about our pitch being quite poor, especially compared to what it used to be. I've been saying most of the season that it doesn't look any way near as good as it used to and probably needs major work. It's normally great quality despite the (growing?) mounds! Even before winter there was large areas that looked almost bald of grass and it doesn't look much better now despite the mild winter and warm start to spring.

BUT

I think Carlisle blaming the pitch is just bitterness, maybe he should look at his sides own poor performance, other teams have had no problem beating us on it. It really shows a lack of professionalism to blame his own shortcomings on the oppositions pitch. By all accounts their fans haven't been too impressed since he took over.

There's nothing wrong with our pitch as far as I can see.......load of boll@cks


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

On the pitch subject I had someone in my taxi who had been on a stadium tour and apparently it’s not only floodlights that going but the iconic mounds in the goalmouths are to be taken  out on instructions of sky

the mounds are for drainage as far as i am aware, to force water away from the goal areas so how the fck Sky can have any input on that i dont know.
The pitch isnt what it used to be....more austerity over a number of years.....why put money into a pitch that we are moving away from in 1988...98...08....15....errmm
