Interesting article for us on the BBC website in relation to the pitch .....

Fifa secretary-general Jerome Valcke: "It could well be that sooner rather than later the men's World Cup will also be played on artificial pitches."

I suspect that's as much about heading off a law suit from women footballers. They are suing FIFA over sexual discrimination as they say they are being made to play on artificial pitches in the next World Cup where men are not.

There's an Inbetweeners quote about only playing ball if there's grass on the pitch...?
