      I see the annual “State of the pitch hinders us” is being trotted out. Wrong! The pitch was in pretty good nick back in October, November and even December and we won none of our home games. This is just deflecting the attention away from the players and the tactics that see us in the bottom three, getting cut adrift.

      Having won just one game since the last egg fixture was played at the DW, perhaps WJ needs to stop the tippy-tappy passing shite that sees us get repeatedly turned over by better tippy-tappy passing sides and resort to a bit of blood & guts long ball.

        Need to get a local egg side to roll over Latics main training pitch all summer and give the pitch no rest. This should help create a playing surface similar to New Springfield for the first team next winter. Then we will train replicating the main pitch.
        Why did our school pitches look like mud heaps years ago? Answer, too much play on them.
        Why do they look much better these days? Answer, underused for many different reasons.

          Other teams in the Championship seem to win games on our pitch, Dean Smith started all this crap pitch nonsense when we tonked Brentford a couple of weeks ago now everyone seems to be moaning about it.

          Poor management, team selections and tactics are the reason we are second bottom bugger all to do with the pitch!

          And hows this for desperation from Yootha,

          “I don’t think it helps playing quick, slick balls through the midfield, and rolling it around. Even Barcelona would struggle at the minute on that surface”

          Piss poor excuses once more!

          Fuck the EFL

                  Our pitch is in poor condition, but it hasn’t contributed to the poor results..

                  Whilst we are on about it though, I think the groundsman needs the shove imo. We seem to have this problem year in year out. The constant watering of the pitch before the match & at half time doesn’t help. A threadbare pitch doesn’t need watering at half time and this contributes to the muddy patches we’ve now got.

                  Dreading the rugby starting to play on it now as well..

                  The managers decide if the pitch is to be watered, not the groundsman.

                    I think our manager should be worrying about the team and results not the Pop Ups.

                    The only bit Wigoon will spoil on Sunday is where they’ll be stood behind the posts after another Cronulla try.

                    Ground will be empty after an hour.

                            Didn’t know that. If that is the case Warren needs leave it to the people who should know best.
                            You could see the thread bare bits were soaked at half time against Norwich and mud was flicking up when players were running.. I’m no expert but I know a wet pitch tears up easily.

                              If you notice at some grounds they only actually water certain parts of the pitch. We used to water the right wing for example to help the ball run for Gary Teale.
