The two games of World Cup rugby, and the weather has not helped the situation.
But surely why haven't we relaid it after September, during the international breaks?!
I will never know. Even Brentford did!!!

Especially as it has to be wet before they'll play.
We've never relaid the Amex pitch have we? My recollection is that it's always been grown from seed.
That's not to say it couldn't be relaid.

No you're right, it is grown from seed, however it can't be taken away that extra curricular activity on the pitch has taken its toll. This hasn't been the case in previous seasons.

Personally I'm not, but the pitch is awful right now, something we have moaned at other clubs about in the past 3 or 4 seasons. It does need to be addressed.

Nothing to do with the pitch , too many players and important players being injured is the reason for the drop in form , and until they are back or we get some decent replacements expect more of the same

Both Kayal and Bruno were saying on the radio how tough it is playing on the pitch and how it stops us playing our game how we want to.

Is the 'parallel' Lancing pitch in the same nick?

It's the fact it's so heavy with players who are already knackered.

From memory, I thought that each close season the pitch has not been relaid but 'cut back to a certain level which got rid of any weeds etc but gave the turf the opportunity of growing up strongly and this, I seem to remember, is what is done by most other clubs.
I agree that the pitch does not look good at all but, as was previously posted, may have been to some extent caused by the rugby and by other additional 'fixtures'
Suppose we should be thankful that, as with some clubs, the pitch is not shared alternate weeks with a rugby club.

This. Please let it happen.
I'd settle for the idiots not switching the sprinklers on before the game and at half time!
