So I was watching some footage of premiership football from the 90s and the pitches were muddy and the players were muddy when getting up after tackling etc.
You watch professional football from decades earlier and the are even more muddy.
Now if you stick a match on, after an unbelievable wet winter and spring, the pitches at St James’s, Anfield, old Trafford are immaculate and the players walk off looking like they don’t even need to wash thier kits.
What’s changed?

As a matter of fact, a Turkish football team, Galatasaray, complained to the Turkish Football Federation (TFF) a few months ago, stating that one of the other teams’ stadium’s soil was too hard for playing, and told that they didn’t want to play in that tough and muddy ground.
TFF, denied the request.
