    Both Super Kev and Lennon were critical of the pitch last night - is there a problem or was it just a sign of the cold and wet weather we have been having?
    I've thought our pitch was normally pretty good, but I wasn't at the match to judge ?

    It didn't look awful but it was cutting up a bit. Chucked loads of water on before kick-off Hopefully they can sort it out. We have always had a decent pitch. What's going on?

    Absolutely shocking for PL level to be fair. I can't remember you ever having a pitch this bad since the Roker days. Seems strange given the winter has been fairly mild? Has it had concerts on etc? Same for both teams anyway.

    The pitch looked a right messs in places, very bobbly as well.

    Whats with all the watering before the kick off??

    Mind you better than pitches 30 years ago,

    at this time of the season most pitches resembled a beach!!

    Anyone remember the Baseball ground??
