Three home games in eight days will constitute a severe test of our pitch (and the groundstaff!).

If it's a dry period we will be fine. Past couple of weeks have been pretty grim...these things tend not to last all winter (optimist mode clearly online tonight  :) )

Perhaps we might decide to play the Stalybridge game away?

I've always enjoyed my trips there. Perhaps it's the bright lights of the casinos.

It would be so desperately unlucky if any sort of playoff push this year is derailed by the pitch.

No fault in the ground staff of course, it's just been terrible.

I'm betting the pitches in the south are pretty heavy at the moment too.

I was in Surrey the last couple of days and the ground is just as wet down there as it is around here.
