I thought there was a new hybrid pitch which a lot of Prem clubs are getting this season. Think there was talk of us getting one next year...

No idea if they have moved the technology on but we have had a earth/sand and plastic polymer pitch for years. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_grass Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Colin Traive 22,711 Posted May 29, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 29, 2018 Surprised the pitch wasn’t in better nick. There was certainly no shortage of manure on it last season. 35 Yard Dangerman, Bearsden bear, BlueAvenger and 4 others 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid pitches now are 5% fabric woven into the floor and 95% grass - designed to prevent injuries. Pretty sure Hearts are getting one.
