– why are football (soccer) pitches not muddy anymore?

729 viewsOther

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?
