He then grabbed him by his hair and pulled him along for about ten yards. The treatment of footy fans is scandalous, and remains so.

Aye, my brother got mixed up in it. Wrong place, wrong time, as he's not a hooligan. Quite the opposite.

Most teams can train on a 3G pitch somewhere before a game in the same way a team that already has a 3G pitch can train on grass leading up to an away game so its horses for courses.

Sutton installed the pitch knowing that you couldn't get into the League with one so that's their gamble. Its unfortunate that Non League do seem to be much harder on implementing rules on such things when you consider the all seater ruling in the EFL. Scunny for instance can  still get away with having standing  despite us having to go all seater in the 80's/90's !! They have been playing Leagues above us for a number of years now but still havnt had to install seating. 2023/24 DLWDDWDLLLWDLLLLWDDDWDLLWLDLLDWDDWLLDWLWL 2022/23LDWDWWDWLLDWWDLLLDLWLLWLWLLWDDLDWWDDDLLWDWLWLW 2021/22 WDWWWWDLWWWWLLLWLLDLWLLWWDWWWLWDLWWDWWWDLWD play offs WWW Promoted 🥳 2020/21  LLDWWLDLDWLWLLLDLWLLDLLDLLLWLLLDDDDWDDDLWLWLWL .. hello darkness my old friend 2019/20  WDLDWWLDLWWLLLDLDLDLDDWWDLLWDDWWL WLLW - ended 2018/19  LWDDLLLLLLWWDWLLLWDWLWWWWLLLLWWWWDLLLDDLLDLWLW Hello Scunny

Scunny have played 3 seasons at that level since the rule was brought in in 1992, so if they go up this season they would have to do it. Something like that anyway. JESUS AT THE CENTRE

Football should be played on grass.
