Gowling Admits He Doesn't Like 4G Pitches

Hereford manager Josh Gowling has admitted that he doesn't like 4G pitches. The Bulls travel to Buxton tomorrow and they play on a plastic pitch.

"If I had my way there would not be any 4G pitches in the country played at any critical level," Gowling told BBC Hereford and Worcester.

"You understand why clubs do it because of the revenue.

"They can rent the pitches out and the maintenance is a lot less so you understand it.

"But for me, I played on a handful in my career, it just feels weird.

"But it is what it is and we've got to deal with it and we've got to deal with it better."
