    A trivial thing maybe but why don't they put grass down behind the goals?

    The way it is now with whatever surface they have there it just takes the look off the whole ground. They've got the money to change it so why don't they?

    The owners aren't really used to the whole grass thing..........Desert-look more to their liking, makes them feel at home:p

    It looks fine in that picture but it doesn't look like that now, there's some sort of synthetic surface there at the minute.

    Yes. Grass is an essential where football is concerned.

    Actually that's what makes football universal. The fact it can be played any where :pac:

    Maybe it's too awkward to cut around/ behind the goals so they use fake grass there
