How bad is it?

[Guest]

Burnham @ abbey on saturday how bad is the pitch i've heard a few comments about it?

[Mr Happy]

When we played there a couple of weeks ago it was bordering on a mud bath.

My wife has cooked the christmas puddings a couple of days ago and studying the top of those they appear to have the same consistency as WA pitch.

 

Following the report in last weekend's NLP about the side whose pitch was 3 metres too short I would also see that the ref measures its width. It might be a tad undersize! It would explain the fluke goal against town in the dying minutes anyway.

 

What do you think Chopper?

[Guest]

But in saying that the abbey have done ok on it.

[DotCom]

steph i scored the goal and confirm it was meant!!

 

what ever angle you look at it, it still nestled in the top corner! sorry!

[Guest]

Steph move on. Moan about another defeat not that one. "The pitch was too short" Coup what is your signature message...

[coupwotcoup]

On that basis, he will be wanting the six yard box measured next, in case you score against them from too close in! Don't some people go on, eh?

Pot and kettle Mr Coup?

Come on he didnt bring this up AGAIN. It's so funny though. The pitch was too small, too narrow, too heavy, too un even, Chopper slipped for the goal, need I go on? That is without mentioning the ref.

So I take it you dont want it measured in case the game has to be replayed. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

[Chopper]

JUST TO SAY WOULD NOT LIKE TO PLAY ON IT EVERY WEEK ! NOT A GOOD PITCH SORRY CHAPS !

[Guest]

steph = sour grapes STILL, move on loser..

 

chop you are right i'm sure they wouldn't either but theirs not alot they can is there?..

[DotCom]

>>steph

 

do what you want just let it go mate i know its hard!

[chalky]

anon: your right us players don't like playing on it, we would prefer to play on pitches like Romfords week in week out but unfortunately we can't, we don't moan we just go out and try to play and if we are lucky maybe win!!

 

I take it then ETFC supporters/players are stating that we have the worst pitch in the league? casue thats all i have been hearing lately!!!

 

I have not heard one WAFC supporter/player come on here moaning about the pitch? why we are bottom 7 points adrift from the other teams and should the manager move on i don't think so

[coupwotcoup]

I know! (He says trying to wrench tongue from cheek).

[Coach No]

 

Heard that the WA Under 18's match scheduled for tonight has been cancled

Last year the Brimmo pitch was awful but with all the work Frank and Roy have done on it this year, it seems to be holding up well.

Hmmmm good idea. Maybe its not too late to complain ;-)

[MbrunoB]

Was the Abbey pitch the same dimensions for both sides?

I think the difference is, that Brimsdown is at its worst in dry conditions and Abbeys probably when theres wet conditions. Obviously this years weather has favoured Towns pitch more.
