I know you're joking but I always thought it was odd that we had to maintain the Ricoh pitch at our own cost after paying £1.2m a year rent but got nothing if ACL hired it out for other games.

The media's measure of a wealthy Club Is how many mowers they have/use
Leicester use seven.

john letwidge, fine fellow & good groundsman,
a real shame a CCFC fan was poached because of our owners myopic view of how football works,
same as our old ticket manager was lifted from CCFC to work for the vile,
& just as a point to note, why,
when a man was videoing fans who were chanting 'sisu out' last night @ n'thampton game,
did a steward who was just in front of a friend of mine say to the videoer, 'make sure we get all of those'
are CCFC fans not allowed to express an opinion ?

He went because he worked for ACL and got a better job at Leicester didn't he?

& ref the OP post for the vacancy for a jnr groundsperson @ ryton pitches,
my earlier post was,
'must be capable of digging footings'
this refers to the foundation requirements for houses,
i just thought i needed to clarify my weak attempt at pathos,
PUSB

So which one is it?
He worked for City we maintained the pitch, or worked for ACL and they maintained the pitch?

He worked for City and we maintained the pitch. Then we moved to Northampton and he was employed by ACL but left shortly afterwards to go to Leicester.
