The King Of Leon Posted April 12, 2018 Share Posted April 12, 2018 Watching the game at Oldham and Widnes tonight, no mud making a quick fast passing game, wouldn't it be great if Leeds City Council did the same ? Thoughts.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hunslet ramone Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Yes agree it seemed to suit us , maybe some of the old slower Hunslet sides of the past it wouldn't , but would be nice now for us to get this down and it looks like a bowling green surface from a distance. I think the best people to ask would actually be the players and coaches about this as the old 4G pitches players used to get like carpet burns on players skin if I remember rightly. Now don't think this will ever happen as the cost of laying one of these is between £300,000 to £500,000 or so the Soccer store says. Think I would rather the Council build a stand opposite the main stand instead then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although it would be warmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pudsey hawk Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 Definitely ! Was brilliant to watch at Oldham. Firm footing allowed walker to use pace to get his second try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkwindbag Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 It did seem a good surface at Oldham compared to our last two home games but then we've had a lot more rain and snow than usual. There's not a cat in hell's chance of it happening in any case, but now Summer is here those muddy pitches will soon be forgotten about (he says optimistically ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The King Of Leon Posted June 17, 2018 Author Share Posted June 17, 2018 after seeing that cornfield today if that's the best Leeds City Council can do I think a 4g Pitch is a must. Fair play to both teams for moving the ball about well and scoring some good tries , Coventry were a credit to the game and played some good stuff.We must improve big time for Oldham especially our goal line defence and hope Walker is fit again.
