Our players trained today on Our pitch at the New Stadium, works well now heating working :lol:

Bristol City, dont have under soil heating and there pitch isnt looking good, but apparently they will be working on it from 6am tom as their Chairman is desperate for it to go on, as they and us are getting a lot of money from the live match rights.

According to the FA website, each club will get £144,000 for a live tv FA cup tie. £8,100 for a radio braodcast.

So for tomorrow alone we are getting £152,100 each.
