Obviously the quality of any pitch will depend on the standard of the groundsman and the number of matches played on it. I believe a number of premiership soccer teams allow only first team games and train elsewhere as do their reserve and junior teams.

Fortunatley Rovers are in a position to allow only their first and reseve team to play at Craven Park thus usually limiting the surface to the minimum wear and tear. Othe clubs may not be so fortunate....and Man Utd for instance can still blame any defeat at home on the R.L. Grand Final played in September

Good points raised there.

So when the pitch gets in poor condition you just don't bother with a reserve team for a season?

One pitch not mentioned so far surprisingly- Salford

always praised by everyone who plays on it- looks a picture all the time and of course NO FOOTBALL played on it which we all know does far more damage than RL ever will

Cas looks good as well- same reason and Wakefield has improved since part time football team stopped playing there
