It brightens up my day when Colin witters on, I think it's great to work out what he's on about.

To be fair he is rarely negative, and contrary to opinion - always behind the lads. Not sure about his username 'bj' though!

I doubt if they would make it smaller as the cost would be too much for a small club, and be of no benefit to themselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see what difference it makes what League they're in the pitch dimensions will still have be much the same If you actually look at the touchline markings this season you might have noticed that the football pitch was considerably narrower at the start of the season - probably about three-quarters of a metre. I was told from a vaguely reliable source that it is now the absolute minimum width allowable. Football teams cannot change the dimensions of their playing area during the season. If you look at most modern football stadia these days the areas outside the actual white lines are almost always artificial turf. Presumably if the cost was not prohibitive that could be employed at Shielfield too allowing the track to be widened up to the actual white lines. All that would be needed was the desire of Rangers to allow it happen and, presumably, the Bandits to pay for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
