Jamesw Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Is the pitch going to be ok for tomorrow?! Heard kilby not happy at early ko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mantis Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Hopefully OK James but it could be touch and go. Sure, Kilby not happy but I believe WW approached 2 other clubs in addition to their first choice Preston, to play under lights, and none were available. In a similar situation WW had to get themselves down to Dalbeattie midweek a couple of weeks ago, no complaints there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekok Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Relating to the Dalbeattie match on 14 March, the similar situation would been, having gone to the cost and bother of installing floodlights, the home team didn't bother switching them on resulting in a 6.15 ko. Wild guess, that did not happen so not the same thing at all. Also before the clocks moved forward, so ko would have had to be 5.15. How about all teams having floodlights, just a thought.

ekok Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Imagine having to leave at a ridiculously early time to make such an early ko. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite a few couldn’t make it with work. If only it had been just along the M8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnmc80 Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 Its not ideal with players trying to get away from there work for kick off but shit happens. Got to get on with it. Big squad so should be able to put a strong side out regardless. Alot of traveling in this league so most teams will have had shit fixtures or kick off times that didnt suit at some stage. Just get on with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes one of the players, probably another one or two at least had to leave work early get to Dalbeattie play the game get back to Midlothian after midnight then start work again at 5 in the morning. At least wi the earlier 1815 kick off EK can be back across the M8 before the 9 o clock tv watershed! There were no complaints from the Shire at the start of the season wi a similar kick off problem at Rosewell. I wish someone could wave that magic wand and get the lights the club deserves. ye won a trophy on Saturday wi a multitude of players not managing to even be benched. I'm sure yous will manage. Certainly not ideal but as John mc says get on wi it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need some dry weather to let it drain. The pitch itself isn’t in bad nick but need a dry spell with home games next Wed and Sat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
