Just going by that picture, it doesn't look like it's being dug up anyway. Just spreading sand over it. Maybe a fertiliser or summat.
Just been relayed, not fully dug up like the last few years. FC play on it in 4 weeks time! The issue last year was the the under soil heating pipes were leaking, our game against Palace in November time almost got postponed because of it so they had to dig right down to fix them.
Pitch has looked good this season. Wouldn't have thought it needed to be relayed. But then I'm not a groundsman. The smc wasn't in danger of making a profit was it?
Barely anyone on here is a millionaire, owner of a club, manager of a football team, professional footballer or even a steward, but that doesn't stop some from being experts on that whole list. It's nice to see the pitch actually being looked after properly tbh.
