Would the plastic pitches not melt in the blistering heat of a Scottish summer....?
Anyways, I think it is a good idea - better to try something new than stagnate to death for fear of trying something new, no? If Summer fitba' doesn't work then we can always switch back in a few years. As for the plastic picthes, I reckon it'll happen sooner or later - and current technology would suggest sooner rather than later.
