If that really is the case DBR why does any club install transparent roof panels?  It is very obviously to improve grass growth in areas otherwise subject to shade.  If part of the initial design there's no reason to suppose it would significantly increase cost.

Yes they do, but it doesn't help this time of year at least not to the degree that would affect the outcome of today's postponement.

When the growing season comes and the sun rises then yes, perspex panels will mitigate some of the sun that would otherwise be lost to shadow.

A little pointless given the south stand is covered in solar panels anyway.

Cant wait to replace the whole roof of all 4 sides of the stadium with perspex, then moan about we dont have high enough playing budget.

A new striker or perspex roofing, we went with the roofing you moaned about.

Its literally a moan about every tiny thing.

My comment wasn't a moan only joining the debate about the usefulness of transparent roof panels, mpc123 and to finish off my contribution to this, grass doesn't grow at temperatures below 7 degrees C so it's a moot point anyway.

Wow, I only come on here now to be baffled by the absolute shite that some people think never mind post!!!!

 :blink: :ohmy: :lol: :lol: :lol:

We keep a few animals, this morning at around 9am I had to defrost and refill the pigs water tub, that is/was in 'full sun'. I went back out at 10.30 and it had frozen over again.

Anyone who has been out today would know there is no warmth in that sun today and no warmth in the air either.

We were one of 7 games called off today, 3 of which were in the championship.

Get a grip.

Agreed and very useful information, thank you
