How long will they be able keep shelling out money whithout any return?

The Beaconsfield mercenaries (including Jarvis) will then leave and Burnham will have to start from scratch.

Hey Reading Rebel, you really are a card!

I forwarded your post on to a couple of the Burnham Committee and we did have a laff! Jamie says Hi! by the way.

They said since you know such a lot about what they are going to do with the budget, perhaps you could publish a few tips? We can't wait!

It's a waist of time giving a bunch of fools any tips because they have obviously decided to fritter their money away on a lost cause.

Nobody goes into football to make a profit! As far as i know there is not been a public decleration of intent as to the future so let Burnhams one or two fans enjoy the ride in silence!

[Reading Rebel]

Yes, Burnham's committee, fans etc are only doing what most clubs would do, take the money thats on offer and enjoy the ride.

 

Good luck to them.

Plse enough of Burnham...

 

we have things to sort out our selves ....I have posted a few articles on Ground help at Beaconsfield , that need attention , yet all I keep hearing is about Burnham , no disrespect but I don't want to hear or read about what Burnham are doing ..if they want, then plse go to there web site...

 

Now please take this on board ..if we dont get any rain before Saturday , it maybe that we need plenty of you to come over to Beaconsfields ground with your buckets and watering cans - the pitch needs water and only the efforts of Slough supporters will this get done..no good hiding away ..we need some serious help...

 

or as I said before get praying...

 

 

cheers chris sliski

Is there no hosepipe or similar? Might be better than watering cans---I've got a 120' hosepipe if thats of any use.

What are Burnham doing with their pitch?

[Staines-upon-Thames Rebel]

To give the grass a chance you need to put down about a 1/4 inch of water, on a pitch of 100m x 50m, this is 31.5 cubic meters of water or 31,500 litres.

 

If an average 2 gallon watering can holds around 9 litres then you need 3,500 cans of water.

 

This will then need to be done several times this week due to the weather causing high levels of evapouration.

 

The reality is that the owners of the pitch, Beaconsfield SYCOB need to invest in a industrial type sprinkler system to get that volume of water onto the pitch.

[Burnham Lad]

Thanks, Chris. I get fed up of reading cracks about Burnham on your site too.

 

I hope you get your watering problem solved. Seriously, if the funds are there have you considered hiring a water bowser - you can get a 10,000 litre one - see http://www.tandmplanthire.com/WATER_BOWSER.html

 

All the best!

[Reading Rebel]

Yep, thanks, Chris it was getting all a bit childish to say the least.

Burnham and Windsor fanbase,very similar apart from a few behind the goal at windsor and i'm sure burnham dont really want that kind of support.

[chris sliski]

thanks for those good suggestions , will see ...but clive the aras that need to be waterered at the moment are the areas where we put top soil and grass seed ..not the whole pitch..the spitch is getting some water of course...but not enough in this draught...

 

maybe if some of you would like to come down saturday , if no rain and we will show you what we need,

we tend to get therea bout 10 to 10-30am..

 

hope for some rain..in the mean time...

 

cheers chris

 

tks to andrew for good suggestion ...

 

best regards chris

Off topic again Byron's brother Bradley has signed for Farnborough and won't be one of the players going to Burnham, although it seems Nicholls and co will be:
