    Whats the problem with it ..it looks OK to me ...sour grapes maybe because we aren't up to press allowing Fulham to play their free flowing football.

    Grass too long apparently. Which sounds like a load of nonsense and that's what I was originally thinking but half a dozen players have fallen on their arse and now a player has turned is ankle.

    I never knew long grass was so deadly.

    It’s the same for both teams, so don’t get the issue just because it is stopping Fulham from playing their usual game

    It’s not been cut to the length the away team wanted it - to suit their style of play.

    ……..don’t we know who they are? They’re ex premier league you know.

    I thought the pitch looked really well in all honesty! Especially this time of year

    And Fulham aren't the only club to complain about it this season either. It's al a bit bizarre really. Wouldn't mind hearing from our groundsman about it.

    The pitch looks good, no bare patches, lush grass, but there's no doubt it's long and players seem to lose their footing more often at Oakwell than when we're playing away.

    Possibly cut to suit who we are playing against. Tactical.

    Quick passing team - let it grow!

    Old school tactics - and I like it.

    It was far worse last season. I think it's looked great this season tbh.

    It looks fantastic to be honest but I'd be interested to hear from the groundsman on what he thinks about the claims it's too long just to get his expert opinion and thinking

    Fulham manager needs to dry his eyes the big baby, looked to spend the whole game moaning. Must be really tough playing in our league with a NASA budget.

    Ahhh must have been early. No need to get to Oakwell until about 5 minutes before KO.
