me, myself i would have to say geashill without a shadow of a doubt...there's holes all over the field,chippings and stones all over the field aswell,its a laugh to think it has held,senior and intermediate champs games this year...sooner rather than later someone is goin to break an ankle or a leg on it..its like a rock when its dry,but then it rains for an hour and the pitch is waterlogged...in fairness the stand and the lights over there are a great,but the pitch in my view is unsafe and unplayable....your views and any other fields ye think derserve a mention lads....
I think Your right Offaly Man, Raheen's pitch is like the Burren when it's Dry and like a paddy field when wet. Its a pity because they have great set up over there. I've heard that pitch has ruined many a good footballer's career, so bad, that some of them have taken to the couch in a "BIG" Way.
