....please let the grass take.
Close to the lake, the water table is high. I am old enough to remember what the grass field at CNE Stadium at Argo games in the early 1970s looked like. It was mostly a quagmire. They switched to one of the earliest, most god awful forms of astroturf because of it.
BMO sits essentially at the same spot. And yes, I'm sure the people MLSE have working on this know that history, and know what they are doing.
But we need some luck too. They have never been able to grow grass at Wembley or the Amsterdam Arena.
Please, please, pretty please, let the grass take.
