Serious question

A Desso pitch has synthetic fibres around which real grass grows. Do you need a Desso friendly mower which cuts above the length of the synthetics? :ponder:
It's called a Hower, a hybrid hovering mower.

You may even have seen the advertisement on television. Monty Don turns up at an unsuspecting gardeners home and rings the bell. He then greets the open mouthed seedsman with a "Hower you doing anyway"?

I was under the impression the fibres were simply retractable thus forming a hairy green tunnel to the Vatican under Celtic Park

That 360 picture on Facebook, that's a lot of plant at CP, I don't know what the programme is, but we should have the interim works done and the temporary pitch in place before the first qualifier.

The stadium will never be finished in Micheal Kelly's lifetime.

Seen that as well . Feasibility study on what can be done and the cost etc. Can't see it myself . I think 60000 is plenty. I know there is a lot of interest just now , but history tells us a lot of fans will stop going after a few years .

60K is plenty and I wouldn't like to see a greater number of empty seats most weeks just so we can sell out more seats for CL games etc. I'd prefer any redevelopment of the main stand to focus on levelling up with the other 3 sides and providing more facilities, media centre, corporate boxes etc. that will bring in extra revenue without just relocating people from elsewhere in the stadium.

The plans to extend the stadium to 70,000 seats have existed for at least 10 years. I doubt they'll extend at this point - the stadium must be over halfway through its lifespan by now.
