Exactly if the result is open to any kind of interpretation then it doesn't put the issue to bed and it probably rumbles on.

I can't believe this stuff again & again & again, just kills me, and yes I've been going on & off since I was a wee young fella in the late 80s

If I had enough money to take over the club then I wouldn't care about that. Football should be played on grass in my view.

But if you had enough money to own the club but not piss money Up the wall what would you do?
I also prefer watching on grass but not if It didnt benefit us.

I prefer Yellow and black because I cant stand red kits.

I'm not keen on artificial pitches although they do have some advantages. A problem for us is that with a constant turnover of players these past few seasons we don't/can't use it to our advantage as few players seem to last more than a season, and a lot for just a few games.

Is that the Yellow & Black faction or the Red & Yellow trumping that?
Hmm.

Personally, I'm indifferent. I will wear whatever colors are decided on with pride, even if we are playing pub league. I really like the current badge. I think it looks sharp and distinguished. As the Club is back home in Gloucester, sporting the Gloucester coat of arms makes sense to me.

I'd still stick grass down as I'm not sure there is a huge amount of money to be made from the 3G pitch myself although will be prepared to be told differently if we are making fortunes from it.

How many teams play at NMP, it'll cost to rip it up, find alternative places to play for the other teams etc.
im sure the easonal maintenance will be higher with turf?
I'd leave it and reconsider when either it needs renewing or we have to for promotion to the EFL (remember that vision)....
