We're playing Portsmouth at home on Saturday, the last thing we need to do is make them feel at f**king home.
If the world didn't suck we'd all fall off

Further proof that building a new ground away from BP is a must.

It's part of the flood protection.

It can't flood, as it's already flooded...............

That pitch is going to be f***ed.

The youth game shouldn't go ahead tomorrow IMO. Once all the water is off we should be giving it the maximum time possible to dry out for Saturday.

The flood defences look about as tight as the team's defence.

its to do with the soil which brunton park is built on to,we actually have a very good drainage that's why our pitch is always so good, but a flood plain will always be a flood plain water will always get where it wants to.

Yep. Well done for switching on the pumps and putting one end in the deepest part of the water and the other end in the drain. Incredible!
