FFS! I hate it when this argument comes around.
John Cooper even stated it was the football that ruined the pitch. Look at the areas where there is no grass - in the penalty boxes and near the corner flags where the goalkeepers warm up! The grass is cut that short that the mud is exposed and with no sun and bad weather it looks worse. Rugby is actually good for the pitch, players are spread out across it and the good weather certainly helps (in a couple of months it will anyway!) |

I don't share your opinion here. Most clubs no longer train on their home pitch. |

I did try a reasoned debate, containing most of the above points, and some others. He still wouldn't have it.
I guess they need something to blame when a lower league team beats them. |

If it gets passed for Premier League football and international RL, then I think it would be a good idea.
It's an absolute no-go otherwise.

Wakey going berserk at half-time about their players being cut to ribbons. Shut up by full time, though.
Did see a lot of nasty-looking grazes on elbows and knees.

Give it a few games, it will be interesting to see if there is a trend in any injuries coming out of these games. |
