When is he going to pitch up there?

Seriously, I hope this doesn't signal the decline of our pitch which has been immaculate for years now.

Bugger!
I've got a flymo. Am I qualified enough to apply for the vacancy?

That's genuinely quite bad news, didn't he win groundsman of the year two years in a row? Hope they get in a decent replacement.

It is days like these that I wish I was nerdy enough to be a moderator because you would most definitely be banned for life......

Is there not a bit of truth in that?!

Do they still play at Parc De Prince? Has often looked in rag order over the years. Presumably this fella will be paid handsomely to keep it smooth.

We've had the best pitch for years now, hopefully won't look anything like my lawn next season.

Calderwoods "team" are taking over so they will know as much as he did as they were with him for a combined 17 yrs. Good luck to him he has won numerous awards and our pitch is world famous ........
