Can you play FA matches on 4g?
I haven't been a fan of our perfect pitch of recent years. Maybe because I associate it with the sterile sanitised experience of watching football in the 21st century.I thought it was great to see it cut up yesterday. It gave a nice retro feel to the game. It's how pitches should look in January in my opinion.
Imagine if so called improvements were made to villa park and the corners were filled in - the pitch would end up potentially worse

There are stadiums where the corners are filled in and the pitches are just fine. Why does one thing directly affect the other?

There are stadiums where the corners are filled in and the pitches are just fine. Why does one thing directly affect the other?Lack of air movement has a negative impact, that is why the San Siro struggled for a long time, why some pitches are put on rollers and moved outside when not being used.Technology has moved on but it is more difficult to maintain a pitch in a sealed ground.
It's what happens when we let our best people be poached by the big clubs..
