The reaction to a postponed game is ridiculous. Talk of having to get a 4G pitch is absolute madness. It’s not as easy as just ripping up a grass pitch and laying an Astro. It costs a fortune. We haven’t even got the money for proper gantry for alty tv and radio robins. Bill Waterson talked about an ambition being the football league on the radio the other week. Well, that will go for certain with an Astro.

Its an unsightly mess. If there are any ground improvements in the pipeline, that has to be top of the list. The scaffolding ruins what was a decent view of the game.

Its not a reaction to one game being called off...its a reaction to the realisation we have a serious problem...the pitch is in a dreadful state and cannot cope with a normal manchester downpour.

We can carry on and do nothing or find solutions which range from a simple trench to the more drastic moving of home matches to a 4g pitch...

Given recent weather we haven't been too afflicted.

If it wasnt for the state of the key areas like the goal mouth i'd say majority of this was overreaction.
