Tell you what, Awaikarangi three is now officially f**ked after our
Sunday League game today.
Even more so after Conrad face planted after final whistle- HA!
And Trafalgar is is history after Salmon VS Stop Out There yesterday-
what we have to remember though is that Football is a winter game and, duh, it rains in winter- we were actually quite lucky thios year first 10 rounds or so were perefect weather on dry, hard pitches.
Now the fields are fuct with only a few rounds remaining
Councils know enuff to get them sorted- a tip about that manure smelling mud though, it can lead to soime pretty nasty infections so make sure you clean it off proepr like, before you head out to the pub for the post match debrief

POOR state of Wgtn grounds
The council need a rev up the state of the ground in Wgtn is so
poor and the neglect over the years is now coming home to
roust. We have not had a bad winter as it goes but the ground
lack the basics which nean they do not drain well.
There is major reveiw on sports ground for the next decades
expenditure plan being carried out by the council. We need to let
the know we want good grounds this is election year.
Fax - Email - Talk to the candidates - Make it and
election issue.
We need grounds that when upgrade they do it
right, not just level a few bumps and throw seed on
top.
...you should try most other places in New Zealand.
Wellington is luxury compared to the likes of Hamilton.

now just think how BAD they could have been if Capital Football had
not pulled the pin those few bad weekends a month or so
back.......

Ye fix that drainage up. Really poor drainage in most grounds!!
Smells like a farm afterwards. Oh and clean ur boots when u get
home i left one of my pairs in ma bag for 4 days and it had white
furr sh*t on it (came off easily) and smelt like horse shiet mixed
with cow breath.

Atended 3 games yesterday. Wgtn College field was worst (who
cares), looked like it hadnt been mowed since summer.
Both Petone 1 and Bell were ok for this time of year. After
all there's only a few weeks left for most of you guys.
Was in bad shape when we finished playing on it Saturday, hate
to think what it looks like now.
Yeah, they should follow the lead taken at Karori Park. NOT
(in my best Khazkstani accent). Spend millions on the facilities
cause that really paid off (sic).
give it time toffeeman, apparantley it's a case of the ground
underneath being way to hard and not soaking up any water - should
get better as more and more games are played on it and the lower
level soil loosens up a touch, is going to be a dream of a park to
play cricket on....first class even
Played at Newlands on Saturday, big patches of slushy mud in the
middle and a hole which the ref asked to be filled up, but
besides that it was fine - ha. Ofcourse better drainage would
help alot of the pitches but I think more regular maintenance by
the council is also needed. Plus everybody knows where the
crap fields are in Welly but it still seems that alot of these
parks are over used e.g Trafalgar had 2 junior and 2 senior games
on it and it just stuffs an otherwise really good pitch.
true the grounds are rubbish
They should use Brian Heath in Wainuiomata. I live next door and
its in mint condition. Some weeks it doesn't even have a kids games
on it. They should put the odd game there to avoid wrecking all the
grounds. chrfit2007-08-17 22:13:34
Well you have better grounds then some over here in Australia.
Anyone got a pic of any of the grounds?
