Live sports outside broadcasts from NYS this morning.
Seeing inside made me miss being there.
Jamie Noble spoke well to mike Bushell earlier.
Just watched our chairman on TV. So glad we have that fella in charge. I did want him last season to spend a bit more money in the Jan transfer window but what is happening now puts everything into perspective.
IF the Premier league insist on neutral venues to finish their fixtures, I can see NYS being one of them. Modern, compact stadium with probably the best playing surface in all four divisions. A football pitch even premiership players would love to play on.
Is NYS pitch big enough?
Most prem grounds are 115 X 75 yards.
Miller's is 110 X 72 yards
New Wembley is 115 X 75 cat 4 as set out by Uefa
Nearest prem club pitch size to ours is 110 X 74. Crystal palace
Largest pitch is Brighton. 116 X 75 yards
Pitch sizes outside the prem though it's a few year old so not sure which new grounds are Inc
The largest pitch in the English Football League (72 clubs) is Leyton Orient at 9200 sq yds and the smallest is Crewe Alexandra and Wigan Athletic at 6600 sq yds.
