Desso Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 Bristol Bears home tonight, so pitch will be covered in lines tomorrow. It looks awful, but I hope it puts Cardiff off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 There appeared to be rugby markings on the pitch at Brentford. Didn't appear to put either team off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvio Dante Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 My worry is that if the pitch cuts up badly it could lead to it being heavy, and possibly injuries. I wouldn’t want to ruin our sparkling record in that regard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lrrr Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 It really shouldn't be hard to organise grounds with rugby/football playing home and away on different weekends, probably a lack of willingness or communication between the sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Army 75 Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 I thought the pitch looked quite poor last couple of home games. Not so much the lines on the pitch but the actual surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recent games even if you think it doesn’t look to its normal standard you then compare it against somewhere like Brentford, brand new stadium that also shares with rugby, I thought their pitch looked poor, yes it had rugby and football with the rain in the last week so will be interesting what the pitch at AG looks like.

Absolutely Brentford’s pitch was poor. Our pitch has been fantastic since the renovation. Just starting to look a bit tired Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwhitepurple Posted February 5, 2021 Report Share Posted February 5, 2021 2 things that are mad. 1) there is no invention of a paint that will dissapear after 12 hours or a chemical added ti make it go completely 2) football is a billion pound business. How on earth is it even allowed, to have other sport markings on the field of play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
