But..... if you're a keeper and you slip it's a costly mistake(not an accident) for which you must be dropped...I really must remember to remember that.

I remember Sooper Ralph Milne wearing astroturf boots on an icy pitch at Selhurst.

He was still sh*te!

Got to be Varney doing a Robert Lee/Bambi impression

What I don't understand with all these well kept professional pitches is why there is any need to wear anything other than studded boots? Sod blades, moulds, etc...They're properly watered, a lot even heated so it's not like a park on a Sunday morning after two days of zero degrees where its rock hard.

I doubt they wear the same pair of boots for more than 10 games at a time so the studs are going to be nice n long for good grip. Why does anyone EVER fall over? I can't remember the last time I slipped while playing & some of the pitches I've played on are shocking!

It's a problem with modern pitches, they are pretty hard all the time, the top layer isn't that thick, then it's just sand below it.

So these new boots, not designed for them?
