Seen some more footage from inside the ground. Almost like a mini sink hole. Don't think that'll be a quick fix

What are they going to do? Doesn’t look an easy fix. They’ll have to groundshare for a bit. Not MK obviously. I wonder where we’ll be playing our game there in Dec.

Pussy cats. All pitches were like that in the 70’s.

I assume the green will be right in the corner, tricky approach shot that

Just a bit of remedial work for the original groundwork contractors!

What a mess and I guess they'll need to be sure the rest of the stadium is on sound ground.
