Hillsborough Pitch/Slip n Slide

What's the issue with the pitch? 

 

Do you think it's down to players using the wrong studs? 

Are the ground staff watering it with baby oil? 

Is it a tactical move to make it difficult for opponents in the hope we can adapt to it over time? 

Is the pitch the reason we are picking up injuries? 

 

Why so many questions? Why can't I sleep at night? Is this why my wife left?

Probably been mentioned somewhere on here but even the Ref slipped over around 10 minutes into the game against Qpr.

The watford players were all over but when our players started slipping too I thought watch this end up costing us a goal lol

They’re spraying disinfectant on it and the boot manufacturers haven’t yet found a way to combat it

I heard its because Gary monk has decided it is the best way forward.

 

No one dare tell him he is wrong. lol

Well as long as she's happy with Garry I guess that's all that matters

I thought in the QPR game it was because it had been raining for 12 hours previously and was still raining very heavily.

However the Owlstalk Met Office assured me that while it was 'a bit wet', it was 'perfect weather for football'.

So I can't help, sorry.

The pitch wasn't re-laid over the close season (July-September this year) like it usually would be. The pitch ended the season in good condition thanks the the 3 months off from March-June (plus the short turnaround) so they decided to leave it. In effect it's an 'old' pitch this season and even though it looks fine it's not playing great hence the slipping and sliding...
