Personally, I don't think they should be allowed. The simple reason that there can be no doubt it gives a massive advantage to those teams who play on regularly.
It's probably the only thing the Huns and us agree on so we're not alone!
We've seen horrendous injuries when players go down trying to play a simple pass/tackle/run.
Killie's pitch seems particularly woeful into the bargain.
UEFA seem more and more accepting of them - I think Man Utd played their first CL game on plastic. That means our opinion counts for nothing.
Football is run by morons, as we know. It is a wonder people still go to games due to the corruption and blatant incompetence we have to put up with.
Regarding Benkovic, he was named in the original line up so there was no agreement with Leicester about not playing on a particular surface.
What we can't forget is that we knew a long time ago how bad the pitch is. There can be no excuses about the performance. We're 6th in the league as that is where we deserve to be.
If Rodgers has to depend on Hendry - who was to blame again for their winner - then this season shall be like BREXIT; never ending gloom!
