It might be bad luck re train strikes but the state of the pitch at Leichhardt was obvious at least last Saturday when Sydney played Wanderers.In fairness to the APL, there is a fair bit of bad luck this year with the state of Leichhardt Oval and now train strikes. On the positive side, apart from the Sydney Derby, this will be so poorly attended and embarrassing that both the change of venue and train strikes can be blamed (and no one will know it was always going to be poorly attended).
Yet it took until Tuesday for the APL to change the venue.
