The new pitch...

[Mucky knees]

... I'm surprised nobody has been talking about this. It's not exactly classified information!

Are the works on schedule?

All going well. Just waiting for the grass seed to arrive.

The grass is being laid this week. It's that new instant grass you can get at B&Q. Needs no watering.

[Sparky]

I’d like to know if we’re having plastic flowers around the edges, to complete the look.

[Tony]

Yes and a barbecue and a couple of deck chairs.

Seriously though folks, had a quick look yesterday and the surface is now ready for the top layer to be put down. However, the barriers need re-erecting ( possibly new ones?) plus restoring whatever we want to do at the top end of the pitch terrace cover, so still plenty to do.

It does need watering!

Only if you want it to live

The new 3G surface is well under way with new barriers also being installed

I hope there's still going to be some covered terracing down the scoreboard end, it looked like it had all gone on the pics I saw. It'd be a real shame if there was no reference to Keith Hussey there either.

The Keith Hussey Stand was an embarrassment, just some scaffolding with a roof stuck on top.
Hopefully a proper stand will be put up in it's place.
Dowse did mention, in one of his earlier interviews about a new stand. Maybe a new Keith Hussey stand is it.

Hope the new barriers, like the old ones, have got a nice flat top for leaning on and putting your drink on.

Same barriers as at Hanworth Villa
