Wonder if Leigh would complain it’s too long .

I was only looking out at my lawn this morning too thinking it may be time to get the lawn mower out for first time this year. Can’t stand doing it though. Such a tedious job ha

The Rain Screens have been omitted due to cost cutting, it’s a shame really, it will get some bad publicity once the away fans sat at the end start getting wet. I’ve opted for mid stand seats halfway up, hopefully, should keep me dry.

I’ve got 50 rolls of industrial cling film in my shed, we could do the rain shields on the cheap and you can still see through it

Ours just had its third cut of the year. The section removed from Belle Vue last year grows just a bit quicker than the rest btw.

Took mine up as a lockdown and furlough project, and replaced it with part paving, part patio. Looks good, even though I say so myself.

Could do to give it a clean, as there's a bit of green forming. Possibly a job for over the Easter weekend

Bongser will take you off tenterhooks: your pitch is a threat to World Peace.

In seriousness if, as is here suspected, it is a Grassmaster pitch, it should be fine come the time of our visit with Spring having sprung.

Is it merely that your next home fixture is against The Leopards that makes you mention Leigh? Recently it has seemed that Wakey fans' obsession with WN7 had abated somewhat and that was healthier alround.

Yes that's why. We'd have said the same whoever it was.

Pitch looks fine now. Won't be a problem when you play us.

The only plus is that were just as good away from home as we are at home

On Facebook apparently Minards has been quoted saying that we have 2000 seats now in new stand.

Disappointing if true and we have lost 500 seats. Though not quite sure how this could happen.
