as far as I'm concerned, it's 3G which is a whole different ball game to AstroTurf - they were even the ones to say at the start that they'd prefer to play on it as they "play a lot better on that kind of surface" - I didn't hear any of their lads complain about footwear before the match or even during it. Didn't see anyone falling over because of the surface.
The issues about the ref, which in fairness they haven't complained about his decisions (post match), I wasn't aware of - someone said he played 40each way but if the second half was shorter, he was only being kind to them.
Haven't replied yet, if only because Bury have been a good set of lads in our previous games and I imagine they must have had a pretty s*** day to travel all that way, get thumped and then see a non-performance by their senior team at Hartlepool. Will speak to him after the weekend and sort it out.
Kev, I need the full names of the lads who played so I can submit the match report.
Nut, what's Danny's last name? He was class - good find
