It does seem that from an injury and aces point of view players do get used to it. I suppose it is like players getting sore when plyin on hard pitched in south africa, but they dont seem to bother
Given the choice between Murrayfield pitch and The Dam, then Id take Murrayfield
Given the choice between Murrayfield with nematodes then Id take The Dam
Im not sure I would want to be a prop scrummaging on it, although it dies give more even footing so they may like it.

Just wait till they get on 5G pitches with the hidden spy chips in every blade of "grass"
New Scottish Government legislation on vaccine certification means fans may be asked to prove they are fully vaccinated before attending large events, including those where there is a combination of seated and standing capacity of more than 4,000.
Enforcement action has been delayed until Monday 18 October, allowing the club time to test, adapt and build confidence among fans in the practical arrangements of the scheme.

I'm not against the principle, but the time it will take to get everyone in will go up considerably. Given the stated aim is to increase vaccination rather than stopping the spread, i am still unconvinced this is really a good thing.
Far too many issues and anomlyies, of people beign vaccinated in different countries, some having genuine reasons for not being vaccinted, or not being able to get both done. It feels a bit too much control for me.

So there is some potential for extra logistical issues at the ticket gates.
I'm not on the ground in the UK, but I get the impression that pretty much everyone is vaccinated by this point, so this is to persuade the 10% who are holding out?
It doesn't sound like there is too much joined up thinking though, from the information it seems that season ticket holders will have to prove their vaccination status at every match they go to, which isn't particularly efficient.
