aaberdeenn Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/8382/smallpitchuz7.jpg Is there any reason why it's smaller than it should be? Anyone seen anything like this before? It's not bothering me at all but just made me curious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FM_returner Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Some clubs just have small pitches. FIFA regulations (if I remember correctly) say that a pitch can be as short as 100yds, as long as it is wider than around 120yds. Of course, most clubs use larger pitches, but you do find the occasional short-ish one. Hope that answers your question. Edit: By the way I'm at work and images are blocked, but I'm assuming the image you submitted is just a quite short pitch, rather than anything freakier.

el sid Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Seeing that pic, I m not sure if it has anything to do with the actual size of the pitch. Surely a big club like Zaragoza ( Big as in, more famous compared to the others ) will have a normal size pitch. And OP, sorry mate. I have no idea what the problem could be. Never seen that before.

NCFC Gee Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Not seen that before even despite having verying pitch sizes myself over time so i don't think it's to do with that, probably just a weird bug. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 What are Zaragoza's pitch dimensions in the club information? It looks like they have a very short and wide pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaberdeenn Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 109yards Length x 93yards Width Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafuge Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Looks like they've just chosen to have the pitch like that then, although it does look odd where it is almost square. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mortified Penguin Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Looks like Glanford Park. On second thoughts, that pitch is much bigger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaberdeenn Posted September 22, 2008 Author Share Posted September 22, 2008 The next season rolls around and we play Zaragoza away. The pitch is the same. :confused: Never seen it in any other game. Odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
