Might cost them that to repair the pitch. Would a club insure a pitch against subsidence? Also looks as if it will take some time to restore

Wouldn't surprise me if Newcastle pay their transport, overnight stay and fix their pitch out of their loose change

It's fan owned , they have made a just giving page which is asking for £150K, Newcastle have paid £15K

It's reached £99K, slightly more than if we were in that predicament.

Their Saturday game is postponed

They haven't started work on a new pitch yet.
It takes between 3-8 weeks to lay and set. Could our game be at another venue?

Could play it here and switch the home game in March to their place, also on a Tuesday.

Now up to £123,000 and they have closed the funding page. They have started work but don't know the extent

As you say Hodgie more fixtures will be postponed.

Carlisle aren't releasing tickets for their away at Wimbledon because they've been told it might not be ready.
