Perhaps a money raiser might be a competition to win the ground staff crew for a day to sort out your garden/lawn. :smt003 (Mine would take a week)

The whole field ( :smt002 ) of pitch maintenance/replacement is a closed book to me. I wish I knew more about this, including why it is that Saints seem to have such a nice looking pitch...anyone know more about this? I am assuming we still have a hybrid style surface part artificial and part grass?

I was told that the pitch is the same as in the last couple of years but with an upgrade.

Oval Park is looking fantastic too btw.
Three lovely new training pitches, all bowling green flat and straight.

Huge effort from the groundstaff - amazing stuff.
