SirBalon Posted August 25, 2018 Author Share Posted August 25, 2018 That was a potato field and considering that it's an important result and one where chaos has to be ignored. Valladolid should be fined heavily for laying the pitch a few days before the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirBalon Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 It looks like Real Valladolid are gonna get punished quite hard from the rumours that came out last night from the LFP. Apparently they were warned not to re-lay the pitch seeing as they hadn't done it two months ago when they sent in the certificates to the governing body to start the work. Infact the team apparently had intense training sessions in a northern beach days before the game. The LFP are waiting for an official complaint from FC Barcelona which apparently won't come, so the punishment won't be closure of the stadium which would've been on the cards if Barça complained. I suppose the victory helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnivore Chris Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Some of the pitches in Spain are like 50s pitches at the best of times, but that was just ridiculous last night Good to see Dembele being decisive again. He still has to improve his allround game and his end product, but he's improving all the time and slowly starting to slow his worth now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening to the president of Real Valladolid last night on Spanish radio it makes you wonder what sort of people are presiding over Spain's top division clubs. According to him those in charge were unaware that laying a new pitch a few days before a game would effect the stability of the pitch and that they had done a light training session the day before to test it. He added that he fully understands everyone's reaction and that they'll take any punishment passed their way. Valverde only said that he was happier that there were no injuries than the result.

SirBalon Posted August 26, 2018 Author Share Posted August 26, 2018 Another penalty for Real Madrid that Benzemá puts away to make it 1-2 for the away side. Girona should've taken advantage in the first half when they were all over Real and had plenty of chances to make it 2-0. You forgive and you get punished although there's a cutting edge missing from this Real Madrid side, they do look more composed than under Zidane.

nfb_10 Posted August 27, 2018 Share Posted August 27, 2018 The state of Real Valladolid's pitch on Saturday was absolutely atrocious...I'm just happy that we managed to make it out of a very tough away fixture on a potato field of a pitch with the win and more importantly with none of our players getting hurt! Proud of Dembele, he put in a great shift and was the difference between the two sides in the end...hopefully this is his season to really explode and show his worth, which he's already beginning to do! This time VAR saved us and on another night it may very well work against us, but I'm really happy to have it in La Liga! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAR didn't save Barcelona mate, an offside goal saved Barça and only the fact that parity has now arrived to the dreadful refereeing in Spain that we will see justice in whatever shape or form. If Barcelona get hurt by one of those decisions, let's hope it's like this one was where it should've been overturned because the fact is it was offside.

They'd laid the new pitch just three days previous which is nowhere near enough. The normal amount of time is between 3 weeks to a month for bedding in. Barcelona have got another problem where they're due to meet La Real (Real Sociedad) very soon and have just started laying their new pitch yesterday.
