MrDust Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Whigning? He gave facts when he spoke about plastic pitches, it's as simple as that, there was no whigning at all.Facts ?Many surveys have been done in the states, where artificial pitches are more common and no proof came out that injuries are more common on artificial pitches, in fact some surveys revealed that less injuries are on them. Waghorn isn't used to playing so many games a season till he has dropped down a few levels, I'd suggest his muscles are tight and the same injury would've happened on grass. We have had two serious injuries in our squad this season, funnily on grass and I don't see Houstie whinging about grass. Mark Millar watch today, hopefully he plays well or injures someone to get the bread man greeting.....tho I think Rangers will win easily today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are the ones who actually play football, so it tells you all you need to know about plastic pitches. Facts, pal, facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bennett Posted February 21, 2016 Author Share Posted February 21, 2016 RANGERS: Foderingham, Tavernier, Kiernan, Wilson, Wallace; Halliday, Holt, McKay; King, Clark, O’Halloran Subs: Bell, Ball, Shiels, Law, Miller, Zelalem, Forrester I like that line up, another attacking team. Mon the Gers. Strong team strong bench, only two out and out strikers tho. Can see qots bring well drilled and keeping things tight, 1 - 3 with a couple of late goals.

The_Kincardine Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Think it was a good grass pitch. Where did that figure come from? "Players union spokesperson Stuart Lovell has told BBC Scotland that its members "need to be listened to". He cited the results of a 2013 survey of 700 players in which 73% said they would prefer to play on a "deteriorating grass pitch" than a plastic one." http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/35551542 BTW I'm a neutral in the plastic pitch debate. Just providing a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waggy-1872 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 Think it was a good grass pitch. It wasn't. I'll trust Mr Warburton on this one, I'm sure he's done his research on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just providing a link. Fair enough. Hard to say how I feel about that. Understandable that having played on grass for years, they'd want to continue doing that. Doesn't really prove anything about the pitches themselves though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now they are the ones who actually play football, so it tells you all you need to know about plastic pitches. Facts, pal, facts. One survey from 2013 based on the older artificial pitches....times have moved on since then...Warburton is simply having a whinge over a player who obviously is spent due to not being used to playing as many games. He'll be moaning about pitches with no grass on them next Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P45 Posted February 21, 2016 Share Posted February 21, 2016 I watched for about 5 minutes there and Rangers must have put in about 10 crosses. Lower league football at it's finest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
