Day Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Extravagant pitch patterns will be banned from next season after the Premier League announced they would no longer be permitted. The rule change will come as bitter blow to Leicester City and their groundsmen whose imaginative pitch patterns have wowed fans since the start of the 2015/16 season. Leicester City head groundsman John Ledwidge hit the headlines in May 2015 after he cut a club crest into the centre of the King Power pitch to mark their miracle Premier League title triumph. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/08/03/premier-league-bans-elaborate-pitch-patterns-201718-season/amp/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I bet if someone said they could cut a PL/FIFA approved sponsor in to the pitch they would be all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van der MoodHoover Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Pathetic. Spiteful rule making because its one of the few areas left that the PL can't exploit for a few more quid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sith Happens Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 If I was Leicester I would replace the crest with a hand and middle finger sticking up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
