Craig Greetings from Thailand, I am the first visitor today to view the video, as I am 6 hours ahead of you, I can't wait to see little green shoots appearing on the pitch.
So a few things mate one the soil on pitch two the south east corner underneath they are cladding it up and three both east and west are having blue paving done
Nice little fly around. Don’t be apologetic about short videos. I notice you have an international audience today. Thanks again for the hard work and all your efforts. Much appreciated.😊
Craig Great sunny day there. Thank you for the quick fly-by. Spied work on the underside to the South Side stand and the return reveals plus that NE Corner paving is coming along niclely too.
i’ve placed a comment with MD also regarding this, looks like they’ve started with the blue ceramic tiling on the concrete benches next to the club shop on the fans plaza far left side as you look straight at the stand
@Craigstv1 - Mister Drone (Nick) done an explainer video on the layers of the pitch, with the help of David Badcock, the sand is in (Lower root zone) and the soil (upper root zone) is next to be brought in.
Turf is not being used, it's soil and then grass seed, and finally a huge machine will sow in some plastic "grass" fibres to add strength to the pitch.
Does anyone know what function if any the black stripes have , is it just cosmetic, because it doesn't work . Especially on the north stand with it being split level. It reminds me of when you move house and you're putting the curtains up first night and you can only find 7 curtain hooks .

Oh ok mate I will have a closer look at that tomorrow for you buddy thank you
Interesting to see it roundabout ko time on a Saturday
I know mate
I think the black material seen in other videos was the grass seed. The systems used for modern pitches don't use soil, they are seeded on sand.
OH ok mate nice one
That's incorrect, the lower root zone is sand, the upper root zone is soil, grass wouldn't grow properly in sand!
@DarrenCowzer-cx7ot 👍 need to have a closer look Tomorrow

Cheers mate
No one will be cleaning a bit of oil in the channel. It has simply drifted in from Sandon Half Tide Dock where there are tugboats berthed.
Oh ok mate seen it on mine and mister drone video
I don't think that's soil. It's just more sand to finish the job. The soil will come in the form of the turfs to be laid on top of the sand.
Oh ok mate just waiting now still then for that soil

@DarrenCowzer-cx7ot cheers mate I know about the seeding
@@DarrenCowzer-cx7ot Sowing grass seed in October seems less than ideal for growth.
👍👍

🤔 am hoping it’s not cosmetic mate
