It looks quite nice as it is but I think white could be the way to go, as Timed Out says, it would help it stand out more.
Nice pav by the way!

Are the changing rooms upstairs? Would be nice to sit at the window and watch the game.

I don't know what to go for. I like the stain, black ties in with the clubhouse and white help the fence stand out.
I'll echo the others in saying its a cracking looking ground.

Did some research and your poll has got it right - tradition dictates white.

White is traditional but the colour it is now has something going for it. It works well with the grass etc.

Nah - you've got a red roof, black walls and white details on paintwork - adding brown to it gets messy!

I'll take your word it as you're the photographer! White probably is the way to go.

I tried doing that as well but ended up making it look like 6 foot of snow had fallen.
It does look better though.

Re: What Color Should we paint our new Fence?
what did you try and do and was you using photoshop?
1. duplicate the image making 2 layers.
2. Using the new layer you the select tool
3. Choose colour range and the tool comes up to select the fence colour
4. Select the most predominant brown at about 40% and the areas that have been selected become visible as dotted lines.
5. Use the fill command and fill with white from the drop down box.
6. Repeat using the sequence from stage four gradually choosing all the browns - try changing the %.
7. If that then selects other parts of the image - rub them away from your top layer using the eraser and then flatten the layers.
That's how I did it using photoshop 7

I'll be honest in that I was being really lazy and just used the paint tool. It works ok on the fence but I got carried away and started messing around.

Re: What Color Should we paint our new Fence?
That looks nice - you should see the ground I play on - it's not like that from any angle - we have Chav's on off road bikes riding across and round it while we're playing with Rottweillers and Pit Bulls chasing after the bikes. 13 year old girls with all their children walk across the middle of the pitch as well when we're playing - yeah it's nothing like yours.
Maybe I'll start a thread in the summer once we start playing called best and worst looking pitches?

Dave,
we are lucky in the fact we are hidden away in a village. had we been nearer the town i'm sure we would suffer from the same problem. We have played at some shocking grounds over the last two seasons... and i hate the odd astro turf ground. Luckily the Saracens league has some standards.
:laugh:
heres another view from the Pavillion taken on the same day
