I must of missed something. From where I was stood the pitch exactly as it has been in previous games. Obviously I'm not playing on it, so am not able to offer a conclusive view on its condition, but I don't recall many bobbles or dodgy bounces.
Sour grapes if you ask me! |  | | |  |

The reason Town got the tent rather than undersoil heating was that it does less damage to the grass. Or at least that was the case with the technology in the late 90s when they tent was bought.
Re the current pitch, the Reading game and the U23s match against Watford seemed to take their toll. Didn't seem bad before that. Were both those matches played in heavy rain? I forget. |
Do they only bring out the tent if severe frost or snow is expected? |  |

Yeah, think it only goes up in the days ahead of a game if they're concerned about how things might develop. Not had many games off since they've had it. Two postponements - at least one of which Alan Ferguson felt he would have got on had the referee not been in somewhat of a hurry to call it off - and an abandonment, off the top of my head. |  | | |

Thought the pitch was worse than it usually was for February.
Saying that, any advantage we can get we should take. Most teams try to play more football than we do so it makes sense to make it more difficult. |  | | |

Casting no aspersions on more recent incumbents we need to remember that for years we had one of the very best groundsmen in the country in Mr Ferguson. | | | |

You seem to have typed 'one of' unnecessarily... | |
