40 pages of moaning on the other thread.

I have asked the club through Josie Andrews if it would help if fans volunteered to clear the stadium of rubbish etc after our scheduled match v Saints on the Saturday.

I await a response from the club.

I have created another thread as I would just like people to post here if they would in fact help because at the moment I will be on my own icon_eek.gif

Come on Wiganers your club needs you!!

Dont hold your breath waiting for a reply from Ms Andrews. And even if there was one, I'm sure there'd be something to do with "Elf & Safety" preventing this from happening.

I understand and respect what you are trying to achieve. Its beacuse there are fans such as you that the matter should have been sorted out by the officials of the clubs as soon as the draw was made.

No thanks but good luck

I think that is unfair as Josie has sent me a copy of the email she has already sent to Kris Radlinski.

On the elf and safety note, I am sure there could be many barriers but we need to find out what they are and knock them down.

The alternative is bury your head in the sand but don't moan when we are playing at Leigh!

Surely clearing rubbish after the game is not the problem. The issue is the condition of the pitch, fans can't do anything about that!

Maybe Wigan RL should start to do sliding tackles and to hack at the pitch by kicking the ball directly from the ground.

Then the football club really WOULD have something to whinge about then, wouldn't they?

Yes you could be right.

What I am trying to do here is flush out the truth.

Is there a 24 hour rule?

What is the logistical problem in turning the operation round in a day - is it the pitch? Is it the rubbish left behind?

My point is once we know the facts we can perhaps help. If the club say that it is the repair of the pitch that's the problem and only qualified people can work on it fair enough. At the moment all we get is Mr Whelan's telling us there is a 24 hour rule when this didn't seem to apply last year.

I appreciate the idea but this is a non-starter. the problem isnt with rubbish, its the apparent state of the pitch so unless you enlist the help of a few groundsmen, it aint gonna happen

It wont be. The stadium will be cleared and cleaned the evening/night of the game by whatever contracting company they use.

I'd do it to help. but it seems whilst every effort is being made by fans to find out the venue, the overall silence from the club is deafening.

Good luck trying to get the truth

It's not the rubbish that's the problem it's the apparent state of the pitch after a match (which we all know is a myth) if I was a player tomorrow I would absolutely RUIN that pitch as much as I could.

Your job is to say to yourself on a job interview does the hiring manager likes me or not. If you aren't a particular manager's cup of tea, you haven't failed -- you've dodged a bullet.:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg

Not necessarily.

I know of one club who can't play on the ground they own at certain times as the pitch is used as a car park by another sport playing next door.
