Ah my lack of horticultural training shines through… I didn’t realise that was a cover…
The sum of my grass experience is cutting it…

Yes apparently MC had a heart attack when he got the first water bill. It’s got underground sprinklers that pop up in case people don’t know. Very posh.

just imagine Trinity vs Catalans next season...
Tom Johnstone makes a break... with Murphy haring across the pitch in close pursuit ... then twenty metres out a RWB sprinkler pops up causing Tom to stumble and Lewis to effect a try saving tackle....
sadly, the sprinkler is injured and out for the rest of the season.

That pitch looks very good indeed. With a new east stand and a tart up of the north it can only be positive!
I do hope we can find some investment in the next couple of years to improve the west stand.

| Nice one Spook,lol.
We could program the sprinklers down the western touchline so every time the away speccies shouted 'gerrumonside' or 'forradpass" they would pop up and give em a good squirt.

No mention of heating system, but I suppose they could use hot water
A new hybrid surface will be laid and Minards explained: “It’s 90 percent grass but it grows through a carpet, which enables it to be much stronger grass and we will have a full irrigation system associated with it as well. We’re planning to do that as soon as we finish this season, which is quite exciting as well.

From what I understand, these pitches by nature are frost resistant. I think undersoil heating is quite rare these days though I might be wrong I'll need to check. With that in mind and alternatives such as covers I don't think it would be cost effective. Off the top of my head I can't think of a game we've lost to frost in the SL era and that was with a conventional pitch, but there might have been the odd one.
