If you are able to change the markings on these pitches, would it make sense for all duel use pitches, that are used for both rugby and football eg; KC Stadium to install it?
Just saying as alot of the time when the seasons overlap the pitches just get churned up and also if ever a pitch needs relaying it seems to always effect the rugby teams rather than the football?

Quote: Cibaman "The soccer pitches are not really mixes of plastic and grass in the way that some people think, they dont have blades of grass mixed in with blades of plastic. They just put down a plastic mesh so that the grass grows through the gaps. The plastic just improves the binding. The Widnes pitch sounds completely different.'"



Yes they do , the Keepmoat , Wembley and the LSV have pitches that are primarily grass with individual plastic blades stiched into them at set intervals , I watched the machine doing it

It doesn't really matter what the top layer is whether it be synthetic,grass or any combination of the two - the secret is in the drainage and the substrata
You can hav the most expensive Astroturf on the market but if the substrata isn't done correctly then you will end with a dogs dinner like the Millenium Stadium playing surface.

That nearly worked as a joke Luke icon_biggrin.gif

Did I miss someone making the hugely predictable 'artificial pitch for an artificial SL club' jibe?

Jealousy get's you nowhere.

You'd be better off concentrating on Leigh and their next three years rather than Widnes.
