i know weve had a lot of rain,but our pitch looks awful at the moment.why do the subs have to kick a ball around at half time.surely they need to be in the dreesing room listening to the manager who might be changing tactics.they warm up up and down the touchline anyway,plus it keeps them off the pitch.the guys who go on the pitch at halftime walk around with a fork replacing the odd divet without doing anything at all to the heavily sanded area.maybe the youth team could help with the pitch at halftime...three men with forks is a waste of time

Maybe the people who help sort the pitch out are too busy bitching on Twitter :)

Not sure where to start with this. Excellent joke from Dave. Maybe, OP, have a look at how I use punctuation and take that as a guide.
I'm sure that if ML wanted the subs in at half time, they'd be in at half time.
Equally... oh, you know what, it's not worth it.

Not a great thread. I think the natives are getting restless, we need a match. There is not a team in the land that does not have humans at half time on the pitch.

Please don't belittle people when you have single handedly pissed off players at our club, their families and other users of our site. I have bitten my tongue too long and given you too many chances. Buck up and be respectable to others or you're getting banned, end of!

The youth team also play on it, so it's in use every week.

...just to add, they play Exeter city(11am) kick off this Saturday.

The other half looks pretty good, maybe we just half a pitch and play 5 a side?

The youth team haven't played on it since the beginning of October due to the bad weather. They have only played 6 league games and some of those were away so you can hardly put any blame at their door.

I refereed them on the 8th december at plainmoor, actually so they have played since october. Just stating more than the 23 home team games will be played on it this season.

Actually you are right and I stand corrected that was the game against Cheltenham which I forgot about as I couldn't attend. But I would say roughly they have only played about four games at plainmoor with the remainder being played between Stoke Gabriel and Bovey Tracey
