Home v Away Pitches 13:08 - Apr 7 with 728 viewsNorthantsHoop

I know it is a long shot so to speak i.e. lack of strikers ability etc. I feel that if you look at how we play away from home invariably on larger pitches, it suits our game with more time, space etc, whereas at Loftus Road on a smaller, tighter pitch we struggle to get our passing game going and create the chances to pressure defences and once the opposition is back in their half in numbers the lack of width means hard to break down. I can see why Cifuentes went with Armstrong yesterday to try and get ball up to him quickly, but our game struggles with this as we are too slow in the build up as our players like to pass through the midfield, which works in my opinion away from home a lot better on wider pitches, where more space is available for a slower passing game.

Majority of grounds seem to have a pitch width of 68m+, ours is 66m.
So you might have a point here.

Let's try a season ground sharing with Fulham. Konk could organise something ๐Ÿ˜‰ Personally I think it is more the proximity of the stands at LR to the pitch - great when you are in the opposition's face...not so great when you are being over- run. I just can't believe that a couple of extra yards can make a team so Jeckyll and Hyde. Think a lot of away grounds in the Championship have better changing rooms than LR too. I'm running out of excuses now ๐Ÿ˜

Thanks Kerry. That is really interesting. Of course the opposition for the most... seem to enjoy our dimensions ๐Ÿ˜ Luckily we have still to go to Hull as well๐Ÿ˜Ž

After yesterday, i'd prefer a ground sharing with Aberdeen.

The man to go to if you're running out of excuses is Taylor Richards.

I don't think you can explain our dreadful home form through pitch dimensions.

Two seasons of dreadful home form through countless managers and players. Just don't quite understand why.

Poll: How old is everyone on here?
