Let's hope they don't bugger up the pitch too much. There's a proper game being played there on the following Tuesday.

they had fair torn it up and i had left before full time as 1. scotland were getting hammered 2. it was terrible weather 3. it was my first rugby game, i dont understand what on earth was goin on so i found it to be a horrible sport!

I hope we're not going to end up with a pitch like at St Johnstone or Motherwell....

I thought the pitch held up remarkably well. It was helped by the fact that Ireland so outplayed Scotland that only half the pitch was used in both halfs. Funny things last night were Main Stand emptying when rain came down and most fans moving to North Stand. Then when rain stopped, a lot of them moving back over. Also found out that I attract Stewards attention even when sober, for the heinous crime of daring to take photo's I had last laugh as he was stuck out in the downpour looking like a drowned, very cold and miserable rat!!

You poor soul! Maybe you should have gone to the Social Club and joined in at the Supporters Club Race Night. Good time, great buffet and no getting wet! And no huffy Stewards there either!

Talking about pitches did you see the seemingly poor stste of Hibernian's pitch? Looked like a starving rat in places.
