Got a pasting by bt sport anyone else watched it back yet ?
Seems odd the grass was so long but maybe it was deliberate to suit our game plan ?

Couldn't really see it from the back of the Blackthorn but it looked alright. Seems to be getting slated elsewhere though so perhaps it was too long.
With the style of play DC seems to want, you would have thought it would be short to keep the passing crisp.

DC is the sort of manager to change things based on who we play so maybe he wanted to stop Grimsby playing ?

Wonder if in the past it was left a little longer as we were sharing with the Rugby who prefer longer grass ...... Perhaps a hangover from that and something that might change when people wake up to the fact they are gone !

The grass was shockingly long. Zero chance of playing slick football on it.
On BT Sports they claimed The Groundsman said 'he cut it short yesterday but it grew overnight'.

I watched Mr Gould make that claim He said " I spike to the groundsman and he claimed he cut the grass last night, but it rained and it had grown over night, yes he actually said that" He was watering himself. Its embarrassing really isnt it.

Its embarrassing really isnt it. So either the groundsman or Bobby Gould is talking sh**e. Who is your money on.....?

They did show several clips of our players hitting the ball long into the corners and the ball holding up. As much as I dislike Bobby Gould he did know what he was talking about. After all, he managed Wimbledon where every trick in the book was used to gain advantage.

Oldie, you are clearly a disinfranchised fan, who seems to use every minor problem (perceived or otherwise) to kick the club.
There have been some improvements in communication, a team that actually seem to care but you are set on dismissing any progress to air your hate of the Board. I would suggest you are on the wrong forum.
All the best
Phil

All the best Phil Phil Posters in toilets, tv presenters laughing at comments by club employees, admitted fiasco re F&B on Saturday.....and that was just last weekend. I don't hate anybody, so don't be daft.

In all honesty Gould was a terrible TV presenter when he was with it enough to know what was actually going on around him - he needed to talk about something as he knows very little about our team or the league we are playing in, and is clearly too slow these days to bs his way through things like he did in the past. Still guess he got a nice fee.

As long as everyone is civil, respectful and threads don't degenerate into dumb ass tit for tat spats it's all good.
