A lot of comments on state of pitch again. I know we are in Scotland with less light and more rain - but hybrid pitches down South seem to fair a lot better.
I know a lot was made a couple of years ago on the prep work for a hybrid pitch and it was obvious the work was carried out with plenty of publicity from the groundsmans twitter feed, then the turf got relaid in the past summer - But was the hybrid work completed??
Usually, there are loads of pictures of the machines 'stiching' the new pitch turf with the artifical fibres - you can see this on lots of grounds - but none seem to exist of this work a Celtic Park - so I dont think this final stage was done for some reason - any comments to that - and would love to see some pictures if they do exist to be prove wrong.
The work was carried out by SIS and plenty of pictures there of the stiching machines - but none at CP which I thought would have been a big story for them
