Abstract/Contents:Profiles Stowmarket Town Football Club and groundsman Richard Tye. States that "no budget to speak of and a full-time job away from the club are just some of the day-to-day hurdles faced - and cleared - by [Tye]." Details maintenance practices used at the club, stating that "everything has to be done as cheaply as possible." Explains that "the club and pitch is on the site of an old rubbish tip and there is a slight hump in the middle of the pitch, which also slopes down towards [a] river." Mentions Tye's goals for the facility, stating that "he would like a greener pitch."
