I commented a few weeks ago that, as a gardener, I couldn't see how the new turf at Hampden Pk could possibly root itself so many days before a league cup final. Indeed the turf could well be disturbed with early activity on it! Now we have the latest news from the SFA that the pitch is similarly being relaid a few days before the Scottish Cup semi-finals are played - nuts and more indication of poor practise by the people who are supposedly running the game up here!
