Be careful when thinking about getting matches on this weekend. A soft top may seem playable, but one match in the wrong conditions can do a huge amount of damage! Stick a screw driver in at least 100mm to check it has fully thawed.

One man went to mow, went to mow Greens Meadow, one man and his robot Lionel, went to mow Greens Meadow.
Feels like we have been on real journey with this pitch over the last few years and had real doubts it could ever look like this in January.
Good luck to

Nothing like a bit of cricket prep 👌
Blood, sweat and tears. Working with and against nature. All for some old boy, who hasn’t trained since 1993 and had 11 pints the night before, to blame the pitch for getting out.

‼️RANT WARNING‼️
Hugely disappointing to turn up at Whelnetham to this today. One match in totally unfit conditions last sunday has ruined one of the best pitches around. This sort of damage on a pitch like this with a very small budget will have lasting affects for years. 1/3

With a heavy heart I have to share this photo. No grass deserves the neglect that this has seen. I have let myself down, I have let my lawn down and most importantly I have let all you grass lovers down. This will not happen again and my lawn will be back stronger.

Council pitches seeded in the spring. No irrigation, no rain, no growth. The seed was properly drilled in so it sat dormant and the birds couldn’t get it. So no we have some moisture we have life!
