Update on the pitch 12:23 - Nov 6 with 58741 viewsLeanneConnolly

Please see the below sent to members of the CAB by Jamie Willoughby who has given us permission to share.

"My main message is to reassure all fans that this issue has the 100% focus of the Club, the board and the ownership group. There has understandably been much speculation amongst fans about what action should or could be taken at this point. We are looking at all available options. Some of the more extreme options have significant technical, logistical and/or regulatory challenges associated with them (and in some cases all three of these!) but we are not ruling anything out.

We are working through all of the possibilities with the various 3rd parties involved to assess feasibility. If we consider that any of the options are feasible / deliverable and will materially improve our position, we have the support of the majority ownership group to proceed with them.

In the meantime, we continue to carry out remedial work to the pitch and manage the current situation as best we can"

On a similar subject, what are peoples thoughts on the floodlights? The lighting looks a little below what it should be to me, in comparison to other clubs. I wonder if at the same time as fixing the pitch it would be possible to wire up a few extra lights maybe along the front edge of the Willbutts Lane Stand or the main stand. That's if the budget will stretch. Maybe it's my eyesight failing though, that's also a possibility.


I think it is.

You mean you STILL haven't worked out why some posts get down-ticked?

It says that the pitch can be layed to suit either football or rugby, I really hope it is layed to suit football more than rugby, and especially the style which we play.
Absolutely fantastic what the Ogden's have done, thank you very much.

We upgraded the floodlights to meet new regulations about 3 or 4 years ago. So I doubt they are below the standard needed. But they don't feel very bright I agree. Given that the Ogdens are lending the club another £1.5m (?) to rebuild the pitch, I am not sure we can ask for more at this time.

No agree, i'm not talking about asking them. I was just saying that the lights don't seem very bright, they are probably fit for purpose though. It's up to the owners what they do. If more lights need installing in certain areas they might conider doing the work at the same time as the pitch.

Not checked this season, but there used to be individual lights that weren’t pointing towards the pitch in the past!

There might be a reason for this, but worth checking on Saturday.

I recommend viewing at 0.25x speed (and viewing on a large screen) to get a full appreciation of the amount of work involved.

Watching that end battle in Avengers at 0.25 is much the same.
