Surely Mike with a roof we would run the risk of those overhit crosses bouncing of it
The cost of a cover for the pitch is £4K , as stated by SC at the poorly attend evening, supporters are going to make a collection amongst the KLTFC supporters at Boston on New Years Day with the hope of raising min.£2k which SC said he would match to get a cover. He had enquired with the Football Foundation for a grant but the process takes hours of paperwork for a small return.

Did they raise anything on the night, maybe ran a football card or two?
Please see my former post about the 3rd of the pitch in the shadow of the main stand this time of the year. It will not dry out until March, frosts will not thaw like the rest of the pitch. I offered a 3 figure donation to help to pay for a cover of some type, greeted with a stony silence from all fronts. The money is out there, and I am not talking about SC paying out again.
Why not do a collection at The Walks on Boxing Day? Surely that would enjoy greater success than an away game ? Would give more local people a chance to contribute.
