Away Leg - Artificial Pitch

Just heard Helsinkis stadium (Sonera Stadium) has an artificial pitch!!!

I know that nowadays the artificial pitches are very realistic in terms of being like grass rather than the old bouncy as feck ones I used to play on........but it still makes me a little worried!!!!

Felt the same when we got Spartak Moscow 5 years ago? But from what I remember that pitch wasn't too bad.

Playing on lava is nothing when youve spent your youth playing on red ash.

Picking chunks of ash out of your cuts at the end of the day. The 30mins of one eyed blindness after you head the ball. Great stuff.

The little black rubber chips/balls get fackin everywher and my knees are constantly burnt from slide tackling on it. Also if its raining the chips get stuck to ball and when you header it they go in yer facking eyes. Pain in the erchie.

Still picking ash out of my legs 40 years on. The temporary blindness came from the lime they used to line the pitch.

Great times, todays youngsters would never understand.

Rogne has a heid like a ten bob bit. When he attacks the ball at corners it goes aff his heid like hes trying clear it oot the staduim.

In the MON era we used to celebrate corners like they were penalties because we were particularly handy in the air. I remember thinking we rely too much on set pieces at the time. Silly bhoy
