That pitch looks absolutely shite.

I still think we’ll outplay them though, it’ll just be even more nerve wracking when we are playing it around at the back.

If it is too dangerous, I hope MR does change things.

'Ffs where's Max' comments already out in force on social media.

Have to say, I'll be very surprised if we win today. Would just be typical of us to beat Wycombe and drop points today.

Few more pics of pitch




You would think there should be a minimum standard of pitch in the league. IE some grass

It does look crap, but we've played on just as bad as that at the Ricoh before I reckon

He was injured a few days ago so probably still injured.

Apparently they have a newish grounds man who used a machine on the wrong setting to get the water up. It took the grass off!

If we can win on that pitch we can win anywhere, would take a point today if I'm honest, 4 from 6 over the 2 games would be ok.

Christ that pitch is a state. Particularly bad on the wings as well which is a worry for McCallum and Dabo getting forward.

I didn't think the pitch at Wycombe was great but we coped fine.
Admittedly it wasn't as bad as todays

What? I’m a bit confused, you said he wasn’t injured last game either but I posted a quote from Robins where he says he was.

Do you know him or something?

Just looked at the ifollow feed and that pitch is a disgrace, large areas with no grass at all, i can see passes getting stuck and falling short.

Are there actual pitch standards or could you literally have no grass and bumps all over the place?

Edit: looking through the regulations there’s literally nothing on pitch quality, smoothness, amount of grass, inclines, nothing.

View attachment 13806 Travelled to today’s game without a ticket so stuck in the home end - will be interesting to hear what the Tranmere fans think about the way we play!
As far as the pitch is concerned I have to say - it’s awful.

I have similar problems with modern technology!

They cannot risk playing at the back to the extent we usually do

Having seen videos of the pitch on the clubs insta. It’s not even flat. It literally looks like a tractor has driven over it in place
