Floods at HillsboroughMore than a month before the start of the new season, Sheffield Wednesday’s first match is already in doubt after torrential rain left their pitch up to 12 feet under water. “There are dead fish floating on the water,” Alan Roberts, the operations manager at Hillsborough, said.The preseason friendly against Birmingham City on August 4 is under threat, while the first home Coca-Cola Championship match is due to be against Wolverhampton Wanderers on August 18. The mopping-up operation starts in earnest today, once electricity has been restored. The average depth had dropped from 5ft 6in to 3ft last night, although one corner of the pitch was 12ft under water. “We will have to get the subsoil assessed to see if it is contaminated,” Roberts said. “It’s highly likely we’ll find silt.” |
