I don't usually post to BD -- being satisfied in the pleasure of knowing that a pitch water debate could kick off at any minute without my help.
However, in this case, I'll second Phill's comment about rubbish because I think it's important to the reputation of the sport. It was very bad at Mansfield. It's depressing to look across the empty pitches and see rubbish everywhere. (Not being holier than thou, but our team did clear our sideline after our last games even if it wasn't our junk--until we ran out of our own bin bags. But even once everything was tidied into bin bags and discarded tesco carriers, there was no clear place to leave the rubbish except the sideline or the few overflowing bins near the pavillions, as there were no bins on the pitches.) I think at some of the Tours, TDs have handed out bin bags with the captain's packs or there have been strategically located rubbish bins near the pitches. Making it easy for people to do the right thing is usually more effective than a lecture...
