1971fozzy Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I’m sorry but that’s not good at all. Fair enough gigs close season but that’s pretty shocking when we’ve been investing so heavily on a state of the art pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnking123 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Don't see the problem. Will recover quickly and have a few bob from the concert. Will be fine for weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hearts_fan Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) It's a temporary situation and anyone who understand that grass grows back after being covered for a couple of days understands that there is no problem. Folk's lives must be so devoid of meaning that getting upset over this story seems like a worthwhile expenditure of their energy.

Morph Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 The picture hughesie posted makes it look 10x worse than it actually is. There's always going to be a bit of discolouring, surprised it is basically perfect under where all the audience were. Big lamps will have that sorted out by the weekend surely.

Saint Jambo Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I saw a photo from last week where the pitch was covered in plastic mats. I dread to think of the injury Naismith might pick up if he catches a stud on a mat against County. You think the Livi pitch is bad, just wait for the carpet burns Halkett will get if he slide tackles on those mats. And don't get me started on the dangers of Mulraney tripping over a chair at full speed. Think I'll revisit this thread at 5pm on Saturday once we've actually had the chance to see the condition of the pitch when there is a football match due to be played.

For or someone who cares about finances Budge has made an arse of this. Spending money on the park then bringing an orchestra in. Disgrace. You've surpassed your previous best on the Slaver-o-meter which really is some going. "absolute disgrace", "out of touch", "made an arse of this". Vintage stuff.

Hackney Hearts Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Every now and then the funfair visits our local park (Carters Steam Fair, Clissold Park). Massive great lorries and caravans park up for the duration of the long bank holiday weekend - the waltzers, the dodgems, the ferris wheel, the shooting galleries, sideshows and food outlets.... The morning after they leave, that area of the park looks ravaged, a huge patchwork of yellow (what looks like dead) grass. 3 or 4 days later you'd never know they'd been there.

They gave an opinion on what might happen without being 100% sure one way or the other. Did some maybe jump on any comments negatively, very possibly, I've not really read through this thread post the concert. But it does appear that the worst possible outcomes haven't actually come to fruition (I just read back and it seems something might have been thrown together by the EEN, and without reading it I'm guessing it is pish).
