It's just over three weeks since the pitch at Oakwell was completely striped back (see picture below) but already the green shoots have appeared as the new pitch takes shape for the 2013/14 season which is just 64 days away.
The first action on Oakwell is scheduled for Saturday 20th July against Wolves in a pre-season friendly in just 50 days time.
In the meantime, while the grass grows at Oakwell, there is plenty of time to join the new era with a season ticket.
