    Is there an undertaking to improve it from last season’s swamp?

    I’ve always been proud of our playing surface but it wasn’t up to snuff last term.

    It's usually been stripped and reseeded by now,I imagine that's happened again. Will be needing a lot of watering in this current hot,dry spell.
    However, as the club haven't done the usual news about it, perhaps they are doing something different and upgrading the surface.

    At least it has a full summer this time so I would expect it to be much better next season

    I was sent this a couple of days ago. So I'd say it's been dug up. [​IMG]

    I thought the pitch was looking a lot better towards the back end of the season. Pretty sure it will be relaid over the close season though.

    Looks better on that photo than what was there.
    Keep it like that for next season's vertical agricultural football.

    Heard a rumour that because of our Wimbledon tactics we have decided there is no point having grass on our pitch so we are leaving it at that.

    Perhaps VI's tactics were determined by the state of the pitch?
