obviously with the weather the way it is the club utilise this feature but at what point does it become useless? heard in past they cant use past certain temps as it scorches the grass?

They can run it on low for a few days if necessary.
Also got the lamps which can heat from above. May need someone to push them around the pitch like a shopping trolley, to keep the whole pitch warm. :lol:

I would if it got that cold the problem would be the surrounding area of the ground rather than the actual pitch itself.

I'm suprised the Blackpool games last season wasn't called off. All of us at the back of the Canton were shivering like feck. Must have been an amazing sight for everyone in the other stands :lol:
