Pitch

[cwmdonkinjack]

Like Brentford's and Coventry's, who share with the egg, our playing surface is starting to look iffy again. I'm not talking anything like the good old Vetch but makes fannying around at the back even riskier.
The sooner the Ospreys bugger off and play in a suitably sized ground like the Gnoll, St. Helen's or The Talbot Athletic Ground the better and they might also generate an atmosphere for themselves

 

[Pegojack]

Yes, I caught a bit of the Ospreys v Montpellier telly coverage, mostly for the nostalgia of seeing the shots of the Liberty and surrounds at night (!), and the pitch was getting a right ruckin' up by those big egg lads.

They're not gonna bugger off though and nor should they, the whole idea of building the Stadium in the first place was to house both Soccer and Rugby, there's little or no money around in the Council or at the Ospreys to upgrade to the standard needed to any of the three ground's you mention.

They really should you know.

Great game it was to, they've beaten Montpellier home and away now and they were the French Champions last year.

Truth is barely 5k turn up to watch the Ospreys. How is anyone making any money on that FFS?
Ship em off to the knoll, great for local traders etc plus a decent atmosphere for em.

 

[Dr. Winston]

Weren't there issues over them not paying the rent at the stadium at one point?

The pitch is looking as bad now than ever, time to get that Aussie guy back from his boudoir in Thailand

Didn't we just spunk a mill on a new pitch recently, need to ask for our money back

Well wouldn't that be done to the owners decision to take overall control of the stadium off the council?

Aye I was thinking the same, hope the hedge fund kept the receipt :lol:

It would be interesting to see a full breakdown of the costs and expenses (and incomings) of what the football club and not the council are liable for since that deal.

Yeah the club should ask for the money back from the pitch selling people

 

[Builthjack]

They really should have their own ground, St Helen’s.

Absolutely shocking, sad to see what was once a billiard table surface now resemble a cabbage patch, hairsprays have a lot to answer for.
