Obviously 100% biased i would say the palace of arts is the best 4G, as it is our home park. But its a good surface, a good size and the location is spot on.

Best Grass would be either at Weirs as the whole set up seemed magic or Lorretto.

The worse without a doubt was when i played at Bishopton and we brought teams to play on the village pitch which has a massive slope down one side - horrendous!!

Always enjoy playing at Dunoon Stadium, the park is usually in good condition, massive park!

Used to play at Stepps (Cambria) quite a bit and the parks there were always in good condition. Oban's Glencruitten parks are ususally pretty good as well.

 

In terms of poor parks, there's a good few that cut up badly in the winter. Played at Balerno earlier in the year and the slope there was something else. Also had the misfortune of playing on the park at Gartocharan (the Stirling side of Balloch) which was a complete slope.

That's the one yes, drove by it a few weeks ago and it didn't look as bad as I remember right enough.

It possibly did, they have to play a lot of games on the 3G at the high school as the Council like to keep the park good for the Highland games.

They've got a wee stand at the side as well which is elevated so gives a decent view to any spectators as well.

A always mind playing on a park which had a stand next to it for another pitch at under 12s 13s hoping to get the chance to play on it lol

Lochan or Belfield Lochan?

Struthers park ( Belfield Lochan ) is a really good park.

Riccarton park ( Lochan, Shortlees ) is horrendous

 

 

The bell field pitch that sits behind Scott Ellis is pretty good I reckon. The Troon dundonald pitch is good one as well although a bit small.  As above Clark drive cracking, dirrans? If it's the 2 main show parks there a bit poor these days. There's a good park behind Astro that's fenced off seems only to get used for the tourneys down there
