A chance to widen the gap tonight

They are going to struggle to finish the season on time at this rate

I'm not sure where/when they can fit this fixture in as most Tuesdays are blocked with their other postponed fixtures and regular Tuesday games+ the easter bank holiday .  The only free midweeks are next Tuesday  and the final week of the season now (if it rains they can't get a game on there though ).

Can they play 3 games in a week or can the season run into May?

Deary me. They deserve to go down with their non-league pitch; they’re certainly not helping themselves either.

Every team has to play the 46th game at the same time and the season won't be extended. If this continues, they will be playing 3 games a week for 2-3 weeks and may have to play them in a different venue.

Absolutely intercourse em. They show no respect to fans either their own or visitors. That they don’t have a groundsman is just a pisstake.
Also it would be lovely to see the Cowleys get relegated.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

The EFL should mandate that all of their members must have ground staff, with at least one being employed full-time and having a relevant accreditation. That solves one part of the problem and would stop clubs getting the Chief Executive to mow the grass.

I would like to see some extra funding that is coming into the EFL to be held by the EFL for grants that can be used on things such as pitch improvements.

Yeah, I think it unfair to call it a non-league pitch as plenty of non-league clubs will have a groundsman!

Not too surprised that Sutton's pitch isn't good, however. They had to rip up their artificial pitch when they won promotion to the League and I suspect it might be difficult to develop a completely new pitch in the same place, given the money available to them.

There are some excellent pitches in non-league. The Gainsborough Trinity pitch has always impressed me, and the pitch at Boston is pristine. It's probably easier to install a pristine pitch as part of a new stadium because you have time on your side. Any new pitch we installed would have to be fully usable within 10-12 weeks of the previous season ending. I'm no expert in this field, but I would have thought that impacts what we can do.

Just how bad is the Colchester pitch? Called off already and the Metoffice says the Colchester area has only had 2 hours of drizzle in the last 24 hours. Is it a swamp?
