Better to say nothing and people to assume your an idiot (tbf the profile pic is a giveaway) than say something and remove doubt...

How can you watch the videos and decide that the pitch is the issue, I hope he isn't left alone for long periods.

Looks like my garage on Saturday morning. An inch or two of water and the whole place soaked. Pipe Burst, fitting pushed off, electric water heater burst. At least most stadiums are mainly concrete so the damage won't be horrific. Motherwell looked terrible as it was in gyms and other places where they will be expensive to repair and dry out

Sorry mate , hope you get it sorted soon . It's a possiblity a few more grounds will get hit by this yet depending on what the weather's like over there for the next while .which I don't know , Really hope Easter Road escapes it . No snow or ice here now though blustery , wet and cold at this moment in time .

I'd imagine if they were going to burst at ER they would have now. That was as cold a spell as I can remember for a long time so hopefully we have done enough to avoid most scenarios. Fixed it all today and went for plastic this time. Fingers crossed it will be OK. At least we don't need to worry about the hot pipework bursting in teh ER toilets

Are Motherwell ever going to fix their stadium's complete inability to cope with weather?

Could this be a result of Motherwell not banning................? 🤔 😂
