darren_0807 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Hi, aiming to take Bath City from the BSS to the premiership and making progress. in Coca Cola league 2 now but my pitch is in rag order..... really impacting my play. my problem is that my requests for a pitch relay are denied as the council owns the pitch.... is there any way round this? will the council ever relay it? thanks Darren Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 This is bad news for me. Just started a new game as Bath. Looks like problems are ahead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
baker.simon Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Im assuming the board would have to either build a new stadium or buy your existing one. Either way you'll need a lot of cash so i wouldn't hold out much hope of it happening soon. You'd think the council would bend over backwards like they did with Newcastle some years back. They should look at it and say "league 2 = more visiting fans which means more tourism money, and hey, if we speculate and give the club a better playing surface we may get to league 1 which means even more fans and even more money".

roseboy64 Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Didn't happen for me until I reached the Prem with Boston Utd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhunter_uni23 Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I had to play from BSP up to Premiership before my board allowed me to change the pitch whenever I want. Up to the Premiership, the board only accepted to change the pitch at the beginning of the season, useless to mention that each home game from November looks like a Sunday rugby match during monsoon! But if it’s fine for the board, then… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if it’s fine for the board, then… This is one thing that bothers me about FM. The boards should be programmed to be more pro-active. Rather than waiting for something to happen then reacting to it, wouldn't it be great if they planned for things such as new stadiums or upgrades etc etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I ran a holiday game with Bath and cheated so that I would be promoted to league 2. Club turned professional and pitch was relayed at end of 3rd season. This was a new game started with patch 10.2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nine_iron Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 I am also struggling to get relaid... Someone had to say it!!! BTW if its council owned how do you not know a rugby team also uses it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 In my game, I looked under Information\Facilities and it says that Bath own the stadium and not the council. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontask Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 i thought that pitches were relaid more than once a year IRL??? anyway i have never had a problem at weymouth. im in january and the pitch condition is still 'very good'. never asked for a relay in over 3 years Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
