Memories of the plastic pitch

[72bus]

was at the 1st game we played on it , reckon it could have been v luton and we lost

[Since1972]

It was right in the bottom corner. Couldn't see if it went in or not till place erupted and all hell broke loose. Ended up by the halfway line after singing at the palarse fans

[Since1972]

It was Luton. Think they already had an astro pitch?

[Since1972]

Didn't we bring some convicts from the scrubs in to clean that up?

[Since1972]

I remember the pic of Clive Allen and a broom after they brushed the snow off to play once.

[Since1972]

It was a bloody awful pitch though

[Chopper]

Bought a piece for a fiver when they tore it up. Looks like something you’d see in a green grocers. Ours was concrete underneath. Oldhams and Lutons at least had sand. Gary Bannister was class on it.
