where did I say that Western were the only team being disadvantaged by playing on that pitch? [/quote]

You didn't (and I never said you did).

The game was a 7 goal thriller, what more do you want?

[quote=Ray Hicks]There was a larger pitch alongside not being used at the same time: If that's not ridiculous I don't know what is.

Spot on, you don't know. Did you walk over and take a look at it? It's the clubs one and only training pitch and totally unsuitable for an MPL game.

[quote=Ray Hicks]Oh and don't try and take some kind of moral high ground with your "welcome to the east" comment: it seems like you're very sensitive to the fact that your club provided a crap pitch that did a disservice to BOTH teams...

Why not? Not that that was what I was trying to do, just putting some balance into unwarranted criticism of one of the clubs most affected by the earthquakes. If you are going to post ill informed comments and lame accusations go for it, I shall try and remain sensitive to your feelings - had to laugh at that, been a long time since I've been labelled overly sensitive :)
