As expected, Gander Green Lane won't be seeing any football played on it this coming Saturday

We only have one first team home match for the remainder of 2010 - Hornchurch on 18th Dec (subject to FA trophy replays of course!) - with any luck the pitch will be fine by then!

Bit late for covers isn't it? It's a rubbish situation because if you don't leave the snow on, the pitch can freeze and be badly damaged, and if you do then it melts and waterlogs the whole thing.

Few grand for covers? would you like to be one of the at least 300 people shovelling snow off them so you can get them off the pitch.. Now undersoil heating.. theres an idea.. if the club could afford that aswell as the £240 hour it costs to run the boilers

But it does not stop at under soil heating, you need to clear the snow from the rest of the ground too otherwise its deemed as unsafe for the public.

Jon The Amber, not relevant to us as we can't afford nor justify undersoil heating but your running cost implies a 6MW boiler !! I think you may have a decimal point in the wrong place.
