[Albion] The pitch today

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Not good, didn’t help us at all. Long grass and possibly watered too much before kick off? It was really sticky and slowed up our passing.

 

[oldboyroy]

Surely the pitch is watered to the managers instructions or am I wrong in that and it's purely down to providing best playing surface for premier league?

 

[One Love]

Before kick off they put the sprinklers on as we haven't had a lot of rain recently.

 

[BN9 BHA]

Nothing wrong with the pitch, it's the players on it

 

[zefarelly]

The pitch is shit and the groundsman is a **** . . . . .so says a friend who's agroundsman at SCCC andha s worked at BHAFC.

If the manager wants it shit then he's a **** as well because it doesn't work for us

Anything else we can blame?

The ball boys?

The stewards?

The weather?

The pitch is terrible. It has been all season and really looks bad on the club when you consider how much spotlight there is on the PL. However, it’s not why we are so bad at football.

No I agree, the players deserve majority of the blame for me. I just thought it was surprisingly poor and played into their hands.

I think you are right, I am not using it as an excuse though because the missing of all those clear chances had nothing to do with the pitch, but if you are passing it on the grass team then in general play it did not help us at all.
If you are a hoofing belt it out of defence team then it made little difference.

Some proper pitches on the jimmy Greaves documentary the other night.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

We ALWAYS put the sprinklers on. Normally to perfectly synchronise with the Southern Water 'Lets Not Waste Water' pitchside ad. Morons

Where did all the rubbish on the pitch come from? And I don't just mean the chaps in blue and white.

A pissed David Attenborough and Greta were up in 1901 throwing plastic shopping bags over the balcony and flicking V's at the fans.

Where do you think? I've never seen it like that when we've played other clubs.

Personally, i thought the crisp packets looked quite agile on the left wing

More entertaining than the two Sunday league pub teams on the pitch.

Not just me who thought that then.

It’s perfect for our team as they are so slow at breaking anyway , a faster pitch and they wouldn’t be able to catch up to the ball
