    Did you listen to the African player's podcast on bbc? The pundits seem to think he's not suited to this league, it'll be interesting to see how it pans out tbh.

    Always remember that perfect hatrick Croachy did against arsenal. Hope this player ain't that good.

    So how long has the pitch been down: After all the construction work...is it likely to cut up?

    No worse than any pitch put in.

    you always worry about any new pitch especially since the stands started getting higher/more vertical reducing the sunlight to the pitch so it doesn't fully bed into the base material

    Its not so much of a problem now with sun light, they have lamp arrays that the move around the pitch to emulate it.
    One of the bigger problems is air flow/oxygen levels and temperature control (it gets very hot on the pitch when there is less wind able to blow across it). I read an article some years back saying clubs with more enclosed stadiums are importing grass from high altitude, warm country's to combat these things

    Probably be ok...I just remember it being said it took a year for a pitch to be great..but that was probably before all this hybrid, 3d, genetically modified grass that knows to trip up an opposing player....
