Ah that’s interesting, and a shame. Thanks Benguin.
Can’t really agree with that after all we had only lost one game at home all season up to that point...the wheels came off the away performances after the Grimsby away game as we proceed to lose four of the next five in a very disappointing fashion to say the least all on pretty good playing surface tooAll this focus on the retained lists and next season, one important area which partially led to our drifting out of the autos was the state of the pitch just prior to lockdown and how it was cutting up.
I think it's also worth pointing out the toll that a pitch in such poor condition takes on the players, particularly when you play on it on a Saturday and a Tuesday. It's not just the pitch that needs time to recover.You may be right but I did say partially and the last two home matches were Crawley and Crewe which both led to 1-1 draws (4 points dropped in the final push) and the ball sticking in the middle, with the prospect of five more matches to come with little time for the pitch to recover likely to affect how we played
Although it does look like they are addressing the issue of connection to the main sewer. Your drainage system is only as good as your maximum capacity. If ,as it looks, they have increased the size of the pipe to the main drain then more water will be able to drain far quicker, hopefully meaning the ground will not be so saturated on the Cowshed side. That is my guess of what is going on anyway!
Back to the drainage again. It's becoming a bit like painting the Forth Bridge.
Charlie looking good on the digger !Although it does look like they are addressing the issue of connection to the main sewer. Your drainage system is only as good as your maximum capacity.
