This includes the summer months. It's ridiculous. Don’t know how lucky you are, I spent most of my woefully inadequate playing days on red blaes pitches. Probably still have a bucket full of the stuff embedded in my arse cheeks. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 There is no artificial surface that holds a candle to a top quality grass pitch. The EPL where it’s not about economy or making money from the surface is grass all the way. A few years back, I was part a tour of the Arsenal stadium (including a walk out to the centre spot. That pitch was like a bowling green…..absolute perfection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right though, a well maintained grass pitch is ideal & can’t be bettered but I’d rather have an artificial surface if we can’t afford a decent grass pitch, especially outside the Premiership. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The grass and artificial fibres intertwine which helps it drain better and cut up less. Think Elton John's barnet, but greener 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
