I just had a look at the scheds for VMSL home teams in the 2008 provincial cups (open, u21, masters) and every single one is a turf field.
Is anyone else finding this hard to believe? What is the point of getting "home field" advantage if the league puts you on a pitch that is not your home field and not even the same surface?
As an example, in the Masters, Sapp is playing on Van Tech School Turf - have they ever stepped foot on this pitch? In the Open, Inter & Croatia are also to use this field as their "home" pitch.
If the league is going to do this, why do we not go back to the way it was a decade or so ago and have all first and second round games at the same venue?
I just don't get it.
