Badly marked football pitches

    While viewing some football pitches in the local parks on google maps with streetview or google earth, i decided to check out other pitches at random around dublin.

    to my surprise it is actually common-place to find very badly marked pitches. well known clubs and well known parks are all victim to this kind of shenanigans.

    the worse i have seen has to be brickfields park dublin 12 and greenhills park

    i would like to see other pitches and see can we vote on the worse.

    i sure do hope people are not paid for this work

    Call yourself a footyfan ?

    The majority of football pitches are marked (some badly) for free by volunteers.

    A small number may pay someone to do it, I know it happens in Corkagh Pk.

    I will be marking a pitch tomorrow (giving up two hours of a Sunday for free) if you want to come down and inspect it.
