Pitches ...

[Green Pea]

We played on Saturday at Hillindon FC's 3g pitch (nice facility, best clubhouse I've seen), that's near Ruislp West Station I think. I'm sure there are mixed opinions about these surfaces but needs must and other Senior clubs like Harefield block book them throughout pre-season.

I like 3G pitches, very good likeness to the real thing apart from the rubber crumbs that get absolutely everywhere.

They've spent a fortune on automatic sprinklers and improved drainage. Now a really nice pitch.

They needed to, it used to be worse than Frimley Greens dustbowl come the end of a season!!

[Krooner]

True Roland but if it doesnt rain too much Colliers Wood is a good pitch. Think the guy there may well have helped out Chessington and Cobham too but not sure. Cobham has always been flat just grassless. If they keep the grass on it will be good. Glad to hear Wembleys is looking good Gussy Any news on Eghams ?

Unprovoked Jurg

[Terrence Collina]

yeah, come on Jurg, it is a dust ball at the beginning of the season as well now

[Jurg78]

Sorry guys I couldn't resist. Think it would have been softer ground playing in the carpark!!

Used to love my visits there either diving about in goal, or attempting to be smashed by Graham Purdy!!

[Jurg78]

Meant to ask, is your PSF against Cobham still going ahead tomorrow night?

If so, I'm gonna head over to watch.

[Terrence Collina]

The only place I had to wear trackuit bottoms on the first game of the season before was at Raynes Park Vale 8 years ago.

 

Yep, game still on. They are in yellow and we are in our sky-blue 4th kit.

[Jurg78]

Haha!!

Yellow?!?! It's actually the luminous yellow Chelsea kit from last season, so the shades might be needed!!

[Terrence Collina]

thought it might be. i might take the gretna kit instead now.

[bomaya]

Horley's pitch was looking excellent last night.

[Gussy]

Score Bommie? nice to know you took notice of the pitch though

[Jeff Hamnett TSF]

3 0 merstham as reported on the match thread by bomaya after the game.

 

He probably thinks the pitches thread is a good place to mention the pitch.

 

now wake up gussy or it will be a long day for you!

I'm sure he's already losing sleep over you TSF!!

[Gussy]

Sorry TSF forgot where i was there, i can't begin to imagine what has put me to sleep

[Carthorse]

Yes it is where the stand was delivered but there is no rutes there it is where the grass has not grown it is flat and not dangerous. Hope you enjoyed the day and the game.

[Jeff Hamnett TSF]

I had an enjoyable visit www., thankyou. Congratulations to all involved in getting the stand and clubhouse sorted, very good facilities there now.

 

I apologise for my description of the area on the pitch, unfortunate but inevitable that its right by the entrance, it certainly caught my eye.

 

Im sure its no longer dangerous and will settle down in time. Is that area why you had to call off a previous PSF?
