Anfield pitch

[ThePRODigalSon]

Looking very good for January.
Weather been fairly consistent across the U.K.
reinforces the concern on an earlier thread about Ibrox on Friday potentially hampering our normal slick passing game.

 

[GwRFC1992]

With the money down in the EPL there should be no such thing as a bad pitch.

 

[Sparklehorse Loyal]

Thought Ibrox pitch looked quite poor in patches on Friday night . Would they have covered it during the shut down .
Anfield pitch looks ok bit heavy in places but not affecting Liverpool’s play

 

[scottie626]

with the sponsors money it should always be good

 

[Virgil Hilts]

It’s not all grass.

 

[macjohn212]

Contains artificial fibers

 

[Million$Man]

They have much more money to look after it and probably have better weather than us.

 

[Scott4ll]

pitch is looking awesome. They seem to be doing everything right just now.

 

[Broughtonloyal]

Yeah, those EPL ground keepers and their bottomless pit budgets. Wowzers.

One more solid gold contribution towards the lounge.

hybrid pitch

 

[Prestwick_ Bear]

It’s not all grass.

Full Hybrid I think.

 

[Sron Gorm]

With all the money in the EPL, I'm surprised they haven't started painting gold lines on the pitches.

 

[Agent P]

Looks in excellent condition. They seem to have everything going for them at the moment.

 

[ThePRODigalSon]

hybrid pitch

3% fibre 97% grass

 

[portobear]

Doesn't look real at all, hardly a mark on it.

 

[Redhand]

Thought we were getting a hybrid pitch ?

 

[Hexham Blue]

It will be a grass fibre hybrid, id be amazed if Steven Gerrard isn’t pushing for a similar set up at Ibrox. The best examples such as Anfield however, will be very expensive.

 

[ThePRODigalSon]

Lol it’s Liverpool not lanzarote

 

[waffoibiza]

I think hybrid parks are the future.

 

[Henderson55]

Even still money or not it looks amazing

longer days, couple of degrees warmer, more sun hits the grass.

There was something about Ibrox getting the least light to the pitch of any stadium in the uk. Due to the main stand being so awesome.

 

[Bridgend-loyal]

Looks good for a hybrid pitch.

 

[Kathmandu]

There was something about Ibrox getting the least light to the pitch of any stadium in the uk. Due to the main stand being so awesome.

I read something a few years ago that part of the problem is the corners being filled as it affects the circulation of air round the pitch and the stands being so close limit the natural light.

 

[Scott Wilkie]

It's a hybrid.

 

[Marquess of Maida Vale]

Bring on the worms.

 

[awayday]

Looked in cracking conditions, ours looked a bit rough on Friday night

 

[Fat_zidane]

I miss the Chelsea sandy pitch. Great days!

 

[Deekog]

Thought we had a hybrid

 

[BUDDA76]

Money spent down there imagine will be huge compared to even what rangers spend on pitch. Even the watering sprinklers is huge business,no garden hose and quick soak.

 

[Gersboyjohn]

No doubt be ruined in a month or two when the title celebrations happen.

 

[Clicker]

That pitch used to be a real mud bath by this stage of the season.

 

[Beezty]

Looks great.

Was a little surprised how ours looked on Friday.

 

[Claudio Caniggia]

We’ve always struggled at this time of the year because of the lack on sunlight coming into the stadium.

 

[Aztec]

Hybrid pitches are the future with our climate

 

[Bluebrox]

Ours was pretty shit on Boxing Day and showed no improvement on Friday night.

Disappointing.

 

[turks]

how much would a hybrid pitch set you back?

 

[Ashy]

Hybrid pitches will be the norm soon. Especially in this country. Great technology

 

[bert]

Sure we put the hybrid stuff down in both boxes. Defo seen a picture of the machine on the pitch

 

[KPL]

Our pitch on Friday looked really heavy, a slight worry with so many home games coming

 

[Mr Dave]

Still prefer the days when they went over to the Baseball Ground (or similar) and you immediately saw a mud heap.

Gaffer confirmed this morning that the team has been training on it

 

[Scotland11]

Think we had an awful lot of rain in the run up to Friday. My grass was absolutely saturated but the few days without rainfall and the groundsman/drainage should have it up to scratch again.

 

[sandy102uk]

I read that a good hybrid is very expensive but how much does it cost?

 

[Steveo_watp]

On the carragher podcast. Bellew was saying it costs Everton £1m a year to maintain the pitch. That’s why he struggled to get a boxing event on.

 

[djgarymc]

I know we laid some of the hybrid stuff to both boxes, surely we will complete this in the summer

 

[FullTimePint]

the overall stadium as they continue to redevelop is starting to really be something special. They have a way to go before it rivals Old Trafford/Emirates, but its definitely up there as one of the top grounds for atmosphere down south

 

[Stephenj5]

Is it the same sort of hybrid pitch the beggars have?

 

[JCDarcheville]

We installed a hybrid pitch in summer 2019, I am sure.

 

[ALASKA]

Any advantage to us should be provided. A good pitch is vital.
