I doubt that - we are using Desso Grassmaster - it's a semi synthetic grass system grown offsite on fabric mats. Rolls of pre-grown turf on fabric are simply unrolled onto a prepared sand base
Great, we’re at the stage of lapping up grass ITK.

I think we are incredibly tight for money at the moment. Does not take a genius to work out that we are pulling out all of the stops financially to get the stadium finished.
We were told previously that the stadium wouldn't affect transfers, no? Was that not stated at a supporters trust meeting or am I dreaming?

Hope levy can still pull off a quality signing befor the window closes. With opening of the new stadium it would be a big statement of our intent to compete at the highest level. If it turns into a damp squid. Im not sure what that says about the clubs apirations

I'm not defending the bald headed twatting dwarf but by the sounds of things the clubs we have been dealing with have been bigger twattting ****s

Astonished there's still no clear developments yet.

Window shuts at 5.00 tomorrow, so it's not even a typical deadline day, more like a half day.

Grealish is our only hope for a signing now.

I really hope we keep Toby, we'll have great depth defensively if we do. That's what I'm praying for now.
" hope we keep Toby ..." can't see how' it was made very clear by trix that wages etc necessitates the sale of Toby now...if that's what guiding this club ( costs) which is understandable then clearly the idea of strengthening United and giving them what they want is fucik irrelevant

Yes, but did you just say damp squid?

I think the failure to secure naming right for the stadium has to do with it.
Levy is known for being a great business man and if we fail to make a signing, struggle,attendances drop and we struggle to qualify for the CL then he will struggle even more to get a good sponsorship deal so its surprising we have done nothing unless we really are mortgaged up to the hilt

Quite possible. The only one that is really bugging me is the Grealish one as it really feels like we are potentially getting some great potential there. Unfortunately there is so much that we don't know when it comes to transfers.

Less than 24 hours to go. ITKs very quiet.


This will either be the busiest deadline day ever or the quietest....I have no idea what to expect but I am not expecting much. Normally at this stage, there would be plenty of smoke...

Sobering to think that Toby's value is going to start dropping not far short of a million a week if he's still here on the 1st.

£500k a week by my maths as i read we can extend his contract by 1 yr but will have a £25mil release clause inserted.

Lot to do by 5pm tomorrow if not already 'in motion', medicals etc. Hard to see any overseas deals getting done really

Think we'll do well just to get Grealish and maybe at a push, another random left field signing this late in the day.

It's even quieter tonight than it was last night. It's almost like we still think the window shuts on August 31.
Lol, you absolute bedwetter, there are just under 22 long hours left to go, how very dare you express your concern at this stage when there's still so much time to go?

Does this damp squid live in the specific ocean?
