Amex pitch

[RowleyBirkinQ.C(deceased)]

I've been pondering our massive injury list for a few months and wondered if the new lush Amex pitch might be in some way responsible for our crippling casualty list. I was prompted to ask this question out load after someone else posted a similar query on yesterday's official match thread. Seems a huge portion of the injury's have been when we're playing at home.

It's lethal that Thai grass, cms hit the deck and a blade of grass gave him a right shiner

have there been a considerable amount of injuries in the visiting team though?

Didn't someone the other day mention this, and they said something about the pitch being springy?

I think the argument there is that they dont play on it every other week so therefore as a one off visiting teams dont count! Personally i think blaming the pitch is horse shit but you never know, there might be something in it.

I'm sure this was made common knowledge about a week ago wasn't it? I may have just dreamt it up though...

Maybe if they didn't water the pitch just before every single game, including yesterday...

What do think that would achieve? Not saying your wrong.

Watering the pitch gives it that extra zip to enable the ball to slide around nicely which helps our passing game.

They water it after its just pissed down with rain. Not sure the point really.

When this came up, last week.

I was left wondering why we need a state of the pitch, in the first place.

We aren't exactly in the 'grim' North, and it's never going to be so cold/frozen for a prolonged period of time, that the undersoil gizmos couldn't cope.

I heard that it was an strategy developed by TB. If the Amex doesn't create sufficient income they are going to let it grow and harvest it before the first game of the next season.
