Danny-Macca 0 Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 got this off another website 1. There is a vast difference in grounds with regards to length and width, thus varying the quality of play 2. Pitches vary from the well grassed to the completley bald 3. Remember, it is possible to score at both ends 4. Tackling from behind is not always an offence, check with ground owner 5. Be careful, as after a few pints a ground appears to be of premiership standard, but in reality would not even be eligible as a council dumping ground 6. Only some grounds offer five a side facilities 7. Don't ever make public your desires to play at Wembley, also never mention pitches previosly visited 8. Extra time is dependant on subsequent pitch bookings 9. If the ground does not seem to have undersoil heating, suggest calling the game off, possibly even contact a coroner 10. When building a team it is always nice to finish with Seaman at the back 11. Wet pitches allow for long sliding tackles 12. Always ask before leaving the pitch and entering the tunnel, do not expect to be allowed to come straight from the tunnell to the goal mouth and score. That can leave an awful taste in the mouth of the pitch owner and may prevent further use of the ground 13. Personal morals may be compromised by local derbies 14. It is illegal to play on small,unturfed pitches 15. From time to time the goal may be obstructed by a highly absorbant goalie 16. Bulgarian grounds are frequently more grassy 17. French grounds are frequently very nice too look at, however there can be sometimes an awful smell from the terraces which don't get hosed down as often as they should 18. Very few grounds are found with executive boxes 19. Be wary of grounds with room for coaches 20. Always be on the lookout for grounds that host ladies footy two evenings a week 21. Pitches with a waterlogged end, can be out of bounds for up to 5 days a month, although this can be longer if u piss the owner off by continually asking to play up the good end instead 22. Players must agree personal terms with the club before being allowed to play on the turf 23. Always look for a ground that has never been played on before (or at least hasn't had many visits). That said, well used grounds may have better facilities and will really know how to get the best out of a player Quote Link to post Share on other sites
