Yes, on the full video you see groundstaff and volunteers removing all the water from the pitch prior to the game. Despite their efforts, it is amazing that the ref passed the game fit to play.
@MichaelMacer i didnt expect to watch this all the way through, but this 80's football looks pretty entertaining. who is that bennet guy in the red? is he brazilian? he reminds me of anton valencia :D
Michael whats the chance of getting a copy of the original video i understand there may be a cost involved or maybe putting me in contact with the guy who owns it !
Wow, Joe Corrigan is your dad? Isn't he the goalkeeping coach at West Brom? The only other Man City game I've got is when they beat Halifax 3-0 in the nineties. Understandably, I'm not in a hurry to upload that to You Tube!
The pitch and the grounds looks 10x better now

It just goes to show when you put the best players on the shittest pitches they're just as crap as the average Sunday league player.

Sweet - and to think they've ripped up the new Wembley turf! It's like a carpet compared to this mire!

Look at that fan's face as the Halifax Team come down the tunnel. He's clearly not impressed.
