Apparently, the grass on the pitch is greener on the other side.

 The pitch doesn't seem to have the same spark it did under Rafa, I just think Roy can't get the best out of it, although the media will no doubt  blame Rafa because Roy inherited it.

84 press briefings a day and Roy hasn't mentioned it ONCE.
One thing does need to be said: in the post-Benitez era, there was media-led clamour (but also some politicking going on at the club) to make the club more English; the idea being that the club had lost the very essence of what it means to be ‘Liverpool’. Guillem Ballague 18/11/10

On the subject of pitches Blackpools pitch has no underground heating so their game was postponed, Munster laid out 140 bales of straw on Thomond Park to act as insulation from the cold spell and their game with Cardiff in the Magners league went ahead. Old school.

The only thing that hasn't let us down. It's ace isn't, the way lines are dead straight and the grass is like dead green and dat.

Something I think the whole on RAWK can actually agree on, without falling out.

Although the pitch has played every game box to box its overall performance has been flat in the middle with a slight dip in form out on the wings. Roys tactics of only playing in our half has caused the pitch to suffer some costly injuries through stress especially around the 18 yard line. The centre circle though at this time has never looked in better shape but needs more match practice after missing most of the games this season due to the ball soaring overhead. At a recent press conference Roy said "The first 18 yards are Liverpools best and most important asset and the centre of the park needs to do more to get involved in the game. Sometimes its been completely unmarked and still contributed nothing to the scoreline and its time it showed me it has a future at this club"

Reports in the Sunday papers reckon City are lining up a £30M bid for our pitch. I'd certainly get him off the wage book - I reckon we should sell!

I "borrowed" a bit of one of our old pitches a few years back, planted it in our back garden but forgot to water it and sadly it died!

The grass performs much better in the centre of the pitch than in advanced or wide positions, regardless of the quantity of goals and assists from those areas.

I've always thought that the football pitch is the most integral part of how a football match takes shape. If you were to ask me what pitch I would prefer then I suppose I would have to say that the one with the greener grass is always favourable whether it be home or whether it be away. I would always consider that a game can be won or lost on the right or wrong pitch both home or away. Teams can come to Anfield and think that our grass is not as green as it is in their homleand - a ground that they are accustomed to - but I would have to say, if you were to ask me, that that works both ways. I have been to many other grounds where the grass, if you were to ask it, could be greener and you would have to ask it why that was the case. I would certainly never ask any blade of grass why it wasn't performing, rather I would ask itself to ask that question. I'm confident that after next week, with a good run of grass, we couls find ourselves in the topography part of the table. But if you were to ask me that question now then I would have to say that you would have to ask me that same question at a later point.

Its a little bit too small.
Its slopes down at the far corner of the Anny Road end.
It takes 2.7% more man hours to tend to than an average PL pitch
The lines man running length is a fucking disgrace.
It so fragile, museum visitors are not allowed to stand on it.
So I think your talking shite as usual CHOPPER.
