I was only quoting an article done with the DW Stadium's Groundsman, why would he tell that story if it wasn't true?

I have do not doubt that grass doesn't grow as quickly in the said months but if you go to the farm up at the top if Gidlow Lane, they sell and grow grass all year round without the aid of sun lamps.

Anyway back to the point I was trying (unsuccessfully) to get across, it is the groundsman that said this, not speculation, hype or anything else.

surely if they did kick us out, the rfl would buy us a lovely new one

Just look at the pitch at halifax now, but look at the state burnley fc pitch looked last week with just football being played there

Who's going to kick us out? We have a 50 year lease.

it was a joke you were supposed to laugh

I know, but people keep saying it as if it's a possibility. It isn't.

I'm perhaps no-one to talk. I've bought into the football 'threat' in the past. But even I now think we should put this tired old cart-horse to bed.
