Notice that Woking FA cup match is called off today. Not a million miles away from Bracknell. Let's hope the game goes ahead on Monday..
Can see it being a right old glue pot of a pitch at Bracknell assuming it goes ahead.. That might level things up by a few percent.. Proper cup tie in the mud.?
Don't know a great deal about the state of Bracknell's pitch. But it was mentioned on one of the podcasts, that it could get flooded if we had enough rain. |  | | |  |

Historically it was one of the first games postponed under Sandhurst. Will be interesting to see how it copes now. Lots of money spent on it over the years by Bracknell. |  |

The owner doesn't seem to think it will be an issue.

Looks better than some L1 pitches. |  | | |

What the heck is a 'stone raft'? I thought rafts were supposed to float, might be difficult if it's made of stone. |  |

I've never seen an oval football pitch before though. |  |

I suppose they had to weigh it down.
Would be awkward if the pitch starting moving about like one of those waterbeds.
I like how they don't need to bother with side-lines though and the ball can remain in play so long as it's not kicked over the fencing. |  |

Suspect the photo was taken pre-season. |  |

You mean they don't really bounce the ball off the sides in play?
That's disappointing.
It's also a shame the water drains so well though otherwise they could fill it from time to time for naval re-enactments like people once did with the colosseum. | |

I had a 5 aside subbuteo game which had a pitch like that. |  |

It'd definitely spice up the FAC.
On a side note, saw film 'The Keeper' for about the 3rd time last night on one of the freeview channels - still brings a tear or 3. R.I.P. Bert Trautmann. [Post edited 6 Nov 2022 23:40]
