Fantastic idea, we all like fast flowing games and the new pitch will aid in that.

Can't wait.

Im made up. Whether it will give us an advantage or not im not sure but to show we have someone in charge who cares and has a spare 500 grand to spend on us, im pleased.

Have they bought it off Apple?

Main advantage has got to be actually being able to train on our own pitch.

As it is now the team are part time and only allowed to train on the pitch on Saturday mornings.

Going full time and needing everyday use and sometimes more with other sides using the stadium it makes sense.

The present pitch is in quite good nick but the use has to be limited on it. It does have problems in the winter months with the build of the stadium causing long periods of frozen patches in front of the south stand that take an age to thaw out and it has resulted in postponements previously. It wouldn't cope with being trained on and then use by others.

We don't have a training facility as yet although that to looks like it is on its way. As a result in the winter months when they haven't been able to find suitable training venues the team have had to go out of town or even this year using one of Stobarts free warehouses to train inside.

Will be great for the start of the season when Wigan and Leeds are like mud baths.

exactly the same pitch as they have at Huddersfield and Old Trafford and almost anywhere else where a good surface is required.

Yep, I think they call it 4G? That right? Either way if it's what LSV have got it will be like a billiard table all year round.

could someone explain to that retard hemmings that its not the sort of old fashioned astro turf that both impales you and gives you third degree friction burns at the same time. I had to switch of before the piece had finished, his filling his pants at the very idea of it was grating.

If we are the first to have an artificial pitch then its not like either of those. It will be totally artificial not a mix of artificial and proper grass.

Its his job to ask the questions others will be thinking. If you had to switch off then you need to start taking medication.

Fantastic idea and an extremely forward thinking move regarding a number of aspects away from just the match day use of the pitch.

At least yer man SOC is playing the right game when it comes to 'pumping' money into a Club. It's clearly a worth while and benefit gaining scheme which will help the Vikings and the local area into the future and beyond. It's not just ing money away.

No it isn't.

I havn't watched it yet, but now i'm dreading it.
