Why do they water a plastic pitch?

Keeps the rubber crumb from flying around, and I guess helps to mimic the run of the ball on grass.

I don't get all the so called advantage that Sutton have because of the pitch. It's not like Arsenal don't have a dozen or so at their training ground.

Hope Arsenal meet the "y..s" if they get past Lincoln and the y..s beat a lower division side....only joking....

Nice to see Tim Vine at half time. When he used to be an ice cream man I asked him for an ice cream. "Hundreds and thousands?" he asked. "I'll start with just the one" I said. "Sundae?" he added. "I'd rather have it today" I countered.

Why do they water a plastic pitch?

Probably not a problem there because it's usually damp, but you can get quite a static electricity buildup on an artificial pitch.
