I called into the ground on my way home from work yesterday, and certainly the pitch has been well and truly scalped ! Nigel the grounds-man, who also looks after the pitches at Stanley Park, will be overseeing the growing process over the Summer. His concern is irrigating the pitch over the Summer, because if we get another dry one, such as last year, our little sprinklers will not be adequate enough. The contractors will be at the ground for the remainder of this week carrying out the numerous processes to aid growth, and after that we leave it to nature to take it's course, and Nigel's magic ! 

Sound like the perfect type of project that the fans could help contribute to by some form of fundraising activity.

Its something that the fans would see and could have a direct impact on.....Just saying

Great idea, I would get involved.

Might be worth investing in a larger tank? I'm sure you could just add an extension to the current tank.
Might also be worth asking for volunteers to move the sprinkler, i live within walking distance of the ground and would be happy to help out.
Shame we can't tap into the stream an pump the water up.

Open the bar every day and then we can all help sprinkle (;->)
