its still better than most of us will ever get to play on. tv commentary mentioned it every time someone slipped over, as a part time sports coach we advise longer studs, amazes me how many professional sportsmen cant work this out for themselves and change studs/footwear to suit. I think Reid slipped or tripped every time he received a ball last night. There must be plenty of rugby boots kicking around the changing rooms for them to borrow? ; )
Comments made at the time of the new pitch installation 'as long as it’s maintained the natural grass might look a bit worn in areas in winter but the green will show through from the synthetic, so aesthetically, it will still look good'
Did you drop your sky remote?
no firmly wedged up my anus tuned to babestation.
The pitch is terrible and is a big factor in the type of football being played, you can't play any sort of decent passing football on it.
Pitch is a disgrace, even for this time of the year, it has to be relaid every season, but that comes at a cost that the insects will probably not pay and more than we pay in rent.
The moment when Reid in the 1st half went over in front of the dugouts was hilarious! Looked like he'd been tackled by a mole!
Never a red! That was yellow all day long.
Not going to get into an argument with you though about it. The last thing I want to do is to start a turf war.
Can't we use the pitch to our advantage?
We obviously know it better than anyone and I recall Derby in the 1970's. It was at their old ground, the Baseball Ground in those days and their pitch was an absolute disgrace. Bloody awful. A mud patch.
They used it to their advantage and won the league.

I don't understand why it's not rolled before a match? Alright it's mud but why not flatten the fook out of it?
Come on, we're only trying to sort the pitch out at the end of the day. That's sow over the top.

And cost Graham Oakey his career, iirc
Because only one team play on it is.
The other teams don't count.
Look it is shit but your right we should be better on it then anyone else.

At Highfield Road, we played on sand and sawdust with hardly a blade of grass to be seen and we won the league.
