The beginning of the end for astro pitches in the Premiership?

[TerryTheTerror]

SPFL to vote on banning them. Not before time, no one want these in the top flight.

Brilliant news.

Hopefully VAR next

The wealthiest clubs etc have DESSO pitches which are half 'artificial'.
They are the dogs' *******s.
Celtic & Hampden definitely, Ibroke I don't know & I don't care.

I imagine VAR must be on a length of contract?

They aren't half artificial. 'Hybrid' pitches (Desso/SIS) are 5% artificial, 95% grass.

Celtic, Rangers, Hearts, Hibs, Motherwell & Hampden all have them.

Saw Tony Watt on Twitter saying only if they are maintained well. Astro > bad grass pitch in the winter

He has a point.

Yeah but no Premiership club should have a bad pitch. 🤔

Plastic is terrible.

Anyone with ACL knee injury can’t play regularly on them - which is moult’s issue

And they still get frozen like with Livi the other year

Really hate them and good if they get banned from top flight
