Surely, any worries about the new playing surface would have been addressed both before the pitch was laid and after it was laid ?
I remember when Trinity were the first side to play on the new plastic pitch at Widnes, there were issues with cut knees etc.
It's staggering that there can be any serious problems.
Lets hope it's something that can be dealt with and settle down quickly ?

The whingers in full force on face ache are all over us like a rash this morning, about this, with the usual, we need to be kicked out if the super league, with our poor facilities and poor squad.
Out of curiosity and not pitch related, did Catalams fix the issues they were having with their stadium.

| Just watched some of the Wigan game....
Jeez it was like the 2023 and not the 1983 version of me playing out wide.... 
Anyway, it wasn't a good performance - but it was only 2pts.
They didn't get any bonus points for scoring 60, just like we didn't when we scored 72 v Hull..... 
Think a poster mentioned the "good start" by the Dire....
Well they won the first three last season, but that didn't end well......
Need to see a massively improved performance on Friday.
Up the Trin! |

Well it certainly isn’t a good situation.
It should be a short term issue. It maybe something that can be rectified quickly.
If not I guess the most obvious solution would be to swap the next home fixture to away (playing at home later in season) or possibly swap all March home fixtures.
Until the pitch is inspected (If that’s actually true ofcourse) we are just speculating I guess. |

Huddersfield Town at home on Saturday so I'd say that's pretty much impossible to reverse the fixture.
Interesting to see what happens if it's not fit to play.
Although the social media accounts have posted a message to say we are 'back at home on Friday'. Make what you will of that |

The culprits are those who dug up the best playing surface in the game to lay a hybrid pitch |

Can happen easily, even with grass pitches....
Only takes skin to break and then bleed leading to cross-infection from grass, mud or sand.
Add in a bit of sweat and/or water and bingo!
There is your infection risk/infection.

Back in my day you were advised to make sure your tetanus jabs were up to date before playing at Odsal. |

Not saying that it isn't a possibility, just that the infections and antibiotics seem to be only a Catalan thing aside from the player IWTID knows of. McNamara has lifted the lid so we should see th flood gates opened with complaints from all whoo have played on it without feeling the pressure of been singled out. |

Denis Betts would disagree and that was from 2015! He's not the only one either in recent times....seen a lot of posts on social media from fans of other teams saying the same but the Belle Vue pitch has been dreadful for a long time now and badly needed replacing. Was fantastic back in the day but hasn't been for many years....
It's not nice what's happening at present and something which hopefully changes pretty quick....I suffered similar years and years ago from a graze I got training on an artificial surface.....I kept on playing every week which wasn't quite long enough for it to heal so kept knocking the scab off before it ended up getting infected and resulted in a visit to a walk in centre with an ankle swelled up like a tennis ball... |

Carter by his own admission has said the old pitch wasn’t in great nick because of under investment. He admitted cutting the spending budget on it and as such it ultimately ended up cutting up more in winter. So they used extra sand on it to dry it out which meant in summer it was harder than it should be. It could have easily been remedied with extra money spent on it but we have now gone for the hope of the hybrid cash cow. |

It's a myth that we had one of the best pitches in SL. MC and the players are quite open about how bad it's been. |

I think what you mean is the 'best looking' playing surface, the pitch at most times was like concrete, and definately not the best in regards to underfoot |

I don't think it'd necessarily be a bad thing if the game was postponed.

Except the possible RFL fine for not fulfilling a fixture and maybe even the forfeiting of it you mean? Remember after some of the covid fiasco’s they got tougher on not completing fixtures, they could easily throw the book at us. |

If there were to be a fine, should we as a club just lay down and take it.
I'd be asking those players to actually prove they have infections |
