You'd need four pitches at least to make this scheme workable.<br /><br />There are stadia in Holland and Germany where this can be done but you need to design the stadium upfront with that ability in mind.<br /><br />The point of doing that is that it means you can use the stadium lots of the time for other events without damaging the pitch.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16009640036433422761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-26388985236623501182013-07-31T16:56:01.244+02:002013-07-31T16:56:01.244+02:00An excellent in depth investigation.

If you saw the state of the Milan pitch in the latter stages of the Champions league where the wings were all but unusable, you'd see what I mean. There was an interesting proposal that meant there would be two stadia conjoined along a side, so each side would have it's own pitch, but still save on some construction costs.

Not a typo - just another 130 odd years to wait. Of course £3K will be worth about a fiver by then.<br /><br />Not that I'm complaining.
