In all honesty no one has been able to accurately state what has gone wrong, but to say we seem to have done nothing about the pitch is not true.
The Boston issue was very bad, not too dissimilar to the numerous postponements when we went to Wycombe a number of times.
Altrincham called the game off about 10 minutes before kick off yesterday.
What we do know is that shareholders rallied to reshape the board in response to concerns about how the club was being run since the 10 year warranty claim, a not insignificant amount was spend on the central circle area last year with advice that the club should last this year, plans were in place to replace the club this year but the pitch deteriorated far worse and far quicker than expected so a long-term plan to replace the pitch with the support of the league and clubs affected is going ahead, with contingency in place should the pitch not be ready for 24th January. |

HNY pal.
We spent a reputed £650k on a new pitch 5 years ago that came with a 19nyear warranty, announced at a fans forum amidst much mutual self back slapping.
Something went wrong.
To say we've done nothing about the pitch over recent years is not at all accurate.
Didn't Bury receive a significant grant from the public purse to put in the current pitch?
All the best. |

You would hope that somewhere, lurking in Saddleworth,, there is a fully repentant former official who gleefully announced the last pitch rebuild came with a 10 year guarantee 5 years ago.
What a bell end.
What great owners and directors we now have.
Eternally grateful - thank you. |

Look at his subs at Boston when we blew chance after chance. Great piece of management |

He said similar to me when I met him.
Chatted about his time at the Pifco hair dryer factory at Failsworth and he was stunned I knew he'd worked there. He got sacked for chinning a manager.
Rock and roll. |

Terribly sad. Got to meet him last year and he was so humble and grateful to fans who supported him.
RIP. |
