Spennymoor away
After the away game fiasco last season , i said I would not go to their ground again, obviously with Covid-19 restrictions fans aren’t anyway, so I won’t be buying a pay per view ticket, petty maybe, I shall miss watching Darlo, it will be the first game I’ve not watched
Re: Spennymoor away
Surely Uncle Brad streams the games for free to boost the viewing figures
Re: Spennymoor away
I can see this game getting postponed if action is not taken to minimise the freezing of the pitch,
Supposed to get alot colder over the next few days,

Re: Spennymoor away
Will be all right if they've deployed these...

Re: Spennymoor away
It must be great having an individual who can put a seven figure sum into your club. The goal area cover alone is at least £500!
Re: Spennymoor away
Our covers are huge, heavy, back-breaking and holey... as they should be for Quakers

There's a benefit to being an exile!!
Re: Spennymoor away
Are our covers still fit for purpose, or do they need replacement versions, what's the cost to replace them with the very latest version .anyone
Re: Spennymoor away
Did Spenny not install undersoil heating at the same time they levelled up the pitch or did they use the same contractors as Boris?
Re: Spennymoor away
Have they levelled the playing surface, it's better than it was but nowhere near level,

Re: Spennymoor away
Spennymoor is covered in snow and no chance of melting with current climate
Re: Spennymoor away
Is this game in doubt, then
Re: Spennymoor away
Brad does blow a lot of hot air so perhaps he saved the pitch?
Re: Spennymoor away
Is there to be a pitch Inspection by any chance, I,ll hang fire on the streaming until I know for sure it's on,
Re: Spennymoor away
Yer 200 less than Darlington, not a good idea to ask fans with shovels to possibly take chunks out of one of the best playing surfaces in Europe, also it's well below freezing, maybe have a decent crowd for the rearranged game...PRIDE OF COUNTY DURHAM
Re: Spennymoor away
So polar bear, your saying it's off , so why is the club holding back this information, if it's off then the club need to say so, stop fannying around and get it online,stop people paying for a service that they can't use.
Re: Spennymoor away
Hang on, surely there is no chance of this match being off. Brad forked out many thousands of pounds on state-of-the-art covers to help maintain a "Football League standard" playing surface.
The manufacturers say the Matchsaver pitch covers are "Ideal for protecting surfaces from waterlogging, frost, snow and organic debris." Just sweep away any snow and game on.
Now you seem to be saying it's probably too cold for the match to go ahead. Eh? Surely that would mean either the covers weren't deployed in time, or at all, or they're fecking useless. Either way it would be a complete dog's breakfast if your prediction is right.

Re: Spennymoor away
What fans, spennymoor pay people to attend trying to increase their fan base from the usual 400.
Re: Spennymoor away
Maybe the 75 are the only ones used to paying for the privilege of watching the Pride of Co Durham as all the rest get in for free.
Re: Spennymoor away
With an owner like Brad Groves, Spenny will need a couple more promotions before they can ever be considered as having a level playing field.onewayup wrote:Have they levelled the playing surface, it's better than it was but nowhere near level,

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.
Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

One of the best playing surfaces in Europe?
Please mods, don't ever ban this bloke. He's comedy gold.
Re: Spennymoor away
Be fair if he is from Spennymoor is unlikely to have traveled much further than the borders of Co Durham so may not realise that the Earth is not flat but most football pitches are.Darlopj wrote: ↑Fri Jan 01, 2021 1:57 amOne of the best playing surfaces in Europe?

Re: Spennymoor away
Can't see the game going ahead tomorrow. Snow forecast to fall from 7pm tonight through to 6am tomorrow & the top temperature in Spennymoor tomorrow is 1 degrees.
Re: Spennymoor away
No danger with those covers!
Re: Spennymoor away
Think I’d rather take notice of the met Office than you.No snow or rain forecast at all until 3 pm tomorrow when there’s a 50% chance of rain .Temperature above freezing all the way.Darlo_Pete wrote: ↑Fri Jan 01, 2021 3:34 pmCan't see the game going ahead tomorrow.
