The churned up areas of the pitch were clearly outside the markings left after the NFL game. :wink: Yeah, where the 50 man bench + cheerleaders were, sitting and warming up. At the end of the day, Bubsa, it's not the NFL that are at fault. That pitch is owned by the FA. If they're honestly considering putting a bid forward to host the World Cup, and that's our best ground, wouldn't have made sense to hold the NFL game at another ground? Say, the Emirates or Old Trafford? The FA knew the tendancy NFL games have of churning up pitches when they accepted their offer... You assume that I was blaming the pitch, where if you would have read what I posted on the previous page (albeit in regards to rugby): You would have known I do not endorse that attitude, whatsover. The riposte I gave you was to highlight the falseness of your claim. You also assume that I actually gave a crap about England. Although, my reign of not supporting England due to a promise I made a friend (If McLaren got the job, I would cease until he left) has come to an end. However, there's only two loves for me: Liverpool Football Club and Rugby. They win everytime. Amen, pal.
