I think Natterjack said the pitch area will be handed over to the Pitch Contractor in the early new year...

Here's a god time lapse of what will happen:

How long is that video - as in how many days from start to finish of it?

How long is that video - as in how many days from start to finish of it?

I would guess about 5, maybe more

Floorwarming UK managing director Richard Dixon said: "Relaying the pitch gave us a rare opportunity to install undersoil heating at Brunton Park, but we only had a window of a couple of days to get the work done"

Couple of days to lay the heating then a lot more for the grass to grow.

But we're using that grass - synthetic combo similar to Cardiff etc. Does anyone know how long that took to complete? Isn't there a video or pictures somewhere? I'm sure I recall they used some highly technical machine under a marquee?

Looks like the construction industry two week Christmas break has started. Just checked this week in 2009 on the web cam - similar snow and very little work until the new year. I think all the workers deserve a great Christmas break, so they can return in the new year, refreshed and ready to finnish the Job.

:dance:

Apparently behind the goals at the back of the stand.

Sorry for my spelling, was never any good - was taught to double consonant after a vowel that says it's sound rather than name. This must be an exception.

If my guess is correct, the "Desso" System of turf reinforcement will be installed at Falmer.

Sorry it's not english, but the text does appear.
It takes 3 weeks to complete a pitch.

Christ, it's gonna take them ages to cut the grass with scissors.

That looks awesome!! I assume when the artificial fibres have 'grown in' then they wont be able to be pulled out like the guy did on the video??
