| If it anything like Leigh Easts pitch, it will be absolutely fine for full contact.
It will be more than fine even, it will be bloody brilliant.

| Why is it called an "i-pitch"? What the f*** has it got to do with Apple? I can only assume that the "i" signifies that it will be twice as expensive as any equivalent pitch and the first version will be e?

every few weeks there will be add-ons you can buy for it , then each year you can pay for an upgrade.

Don't have an iPitch? Then you can't download the "20m line" app. Enjoy tap restarts, on your own or with other teams.

I've played footy on one recently and it gives underfoot like a grass pitch in normal conditions and I've made slide tackles on it in shorts without any burning. The technology is pretty good nowadays.

I must admit, that's the first thing I thought too.
I think that the thinking is... "If you stick 'i' in front of something, it's ace!".
It also means that if you see somebody stealing an Apple product you're an iWitness. (SORRY!!!!)

Does it make Widnes any less of an iSore?

No, that sort of advanced thinking isn't while chapter 6.
Chapter 2 is entitled "How to spend millions reducing your ground's capacity." Topics covered include "Releasing a much bigger/better design in the bumf that goes out with the season tickets than the design that's actually getting built" and of course "Employing a sh[ii[/it coach to ensure your new reduced capacity ground isn't over full".

At least Gawwy's progressed from Chapter 1 which covers 'allowing season ticket holders one ticket per person to show-piece finals in order to annoy loyal fans and divert potential revenue to other sources.'

| This is the company that are providing the pitch surface - rlhttp://www.dessosports.com/en/home/rl
These are the guys that do the system called GrassMaster, which is what we are getting at Headingley (soon?) and is used all over now, Wembley, Emirates etc and of course we played on it at the Keepmoat last weekend. This is real grass reinforced with synthetic grass and is used for football, NFL, Rugby and seem to the be the choice for most modern pitches these days (I suspect Salford, Saints will be having this in their new stadiums).
They do a full artificial pitch specially for Rugby called... Rugby Pro (not i-pitch!!!) but it looks like this has only been so far used for training pitches but this could be the stuff they have at Leigh East?

| Here is a Wiki list of grounds/stadiums that use Desso GrassMaster, not sure how up to date it is!
