[beatific blade]

Winner surely

Jamie Turfy?

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Its the Blades way ...............

It's ok. The replacement for the 3rd machine is already at the club.

For an undisclosed fee

 

[JohnDenver]

I'll not miss the winter sludge that builds up in front of the South Stand during wet winters. All very sparkly and Premiership this new pitch.

 

[Worksop II]

I think the money spent on the pitch and surround gives you an insight into the blades mindset.

McCabe has always been good at infrastructure, New Roofs, Hotel, Cladding, and Statues ..........................

why the Mccabe bating without his money we would have been in admin at least once he has made a lot of mistakes with his selection of managers but he as a least stayed with it and hopefully phipps and he have got it right this time

What exactly have they done to the pitches at Shirecliffe?

Chained them up to a big concrete bollard. It's Shirecliffe..!

 

[WhiteHawk]

What exactly have they done to the pitches at Shirecliffe?

I think they're just brand new 3G pitches.

 

[Kenilworth]

I think they're just brand new 3G pitches.

I'll bet the reception is still crap

 

[andybrizz]

Did you see that big bug that landed on the camera lens at 5:45, we were all sat watching it on the big screen in the front room with our lemonade and popcorn, like you do, and that big fuckin' thing landed .... it was drinks and popcorn everywhere, it was like it was when you watched Jaws for the first time at the pictures and that head falls out of the boat, I nearly shat misen!

 

[GRUMPY BLADE]

Is it just me but I'm disappointed with the pitch, looks real patchy.

Still see where the vehicles ran on the pitch.

Did some work at WBA a few years ago and watched their new pitch grow and start to get mowed, looked much better than this.

Don't worry GB they get thousands of helpers in to paint the individual fibres green this week and it looks much better after that!

It looks patchy, but they are leaving it longer in places, this is because they have studied graphs of Higdons `running`, during last season, and have scientifically calculated the areas he will trample flat. By Christmas it will be like a bowling green.

Relax Grumpster - there's 4 weeks to go yet! And if you look at areas of the pitch pre and post fibre injection, it definitely looks worse afterwards, but after another couple of weeks or so of growth, watering and cutting it will start to look pretty immaculate.

 

[More Bladier than thou]

this weeks video was great, whod have thought caravan racing would be so gripping

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Blimey - nearly a fatal accident this week as the two surviving Desso machines come dangerously close to a head-on collision.

Gripping stuff.

 

[oaklandrdblade]

I'm still waiting to see somebody cleaning the bird shit off the seats on the kop, mine has had some on for about 5 years!

 

[Jon Bon]

Wonder if Adko will be making the pitch wider or even reducing the width?

 

[zablade]

Slightly worrying that in the middle of July they have to have the artificial sun machine on in the left hand corner between South stand and Bramall Lane. That corner of the pitch has been a problem ever since they filled the corner in.

That area will always be a problem as it never gets direct sunlit the artificial light will help enormously but extra care will always be a must in that corner.

 

[vorpal blade]

It wouldn't be the problem it is had the roof been designed with more translucent panels in it would it?*

(have a look at the roofs of the big stands at Newcastle.)

*its obviously not too late to stick some in

Just managed to catch this weeks episode. What a let down that cherry picker was. Just when I though Jess was going to be a goner, they simply changed the PA system. I'm sure Bert will be well pleased about that.

Nothing would make Bert happier than if he could take both his twelve bores and blast every speaker at The Lane into oblivion.

Have to be vey narrow to take into fact that we've only got a back two.

 

[Jon Bon]

That makes you a 24 carat bore Bertrand mi owd son.

Bert cares nothing for you or your opinion but he will tell you this. Bert is a clay pigeon shooter.
