I am the embodyment of the quiet woke majority. Or watched lots of flims like Paltoon and Apocalypse Now when I was younger. Or something.
There’s me wondering why everyone is enjoying laughing at your post and I’m scratching my head wondering why I’m not getting the joke. The hard life.
Slope is a synonym for slant which had racist connotations
I think we should fill the space with thousands of mini footballs. All the safety for a fraction of the cost.
I missed that during "Land of Promise" class back in high school.
I sometimes wonder why they never fix it, but then I remember the pitch I grew up with
Drops off 5 metres behind the other end and up towards 10 metres by the corner flag to the flag. I loved chugging the ball away in that direction. A free few minutes break in play.
Never got to play on the new surface they put in though

Faroe islands?

It's definitely used in the US, there is a pretty funny scene in the movie True Romance where Christopher Walkin uses it in this context and that movie is probably near 30 years old. But pretty dated term, you don't hear it too much anymore, but that could be that there just isn't as much casual racism as there used to be.
Not a bad view that.
I’m sure back in the day the Yeovil pitch sloped a few yards from side to side ,
They've put the goalposts in the wrong place, useless.
It’s actually mental how close the barriers are on some pitches and I’m surprised there’s not been a more serious injury at the top level. It wouldn’t even take much to put some padding there or something but obviously they’d have to find a new way to advertise which is the actual reason they won’t change it. In terms of the slope I’ve got no idea why they don’t just level it off at OT.
I remember Van Persie falling into the camera pit at QPR. Could’ve done some serious damage there.

Could've been killed there..... again
The slope is there primarily for underground heating and drainage, but the problem isn't the slope itself but the brick edging around it is pretty sharp. At least the part of the pitch I've been near. A fall gone badly wrong and your dome will crack.
Corner to corner there was an 8ft difference I believe.
If you having slope problems I feel bad for you friend, we got 99 problems but the pitch ain't one.

played my last game 20 years ago this summer. A third place play-off the day after a night out. I had a nightmare of a game and asked to be subbed at half time.Uummannaq in Greenland
Did you win atleast?Strap your boots on and go for a kick i think, then the last time you played on the pitch would be a nice memory.
Well I also wasn't aware of the hidden meaning, but a simple 'slope English meaning slang' google search gave me all the info I needed to get it.
I think we lost 3-0/3-1. I've thought of playing again lots of times, but these days that scares me of getting injured and derailing my running.

Overshadowed the absolute banger from Fabio.
Rafael.
Doesn't city's ground have slopes as well or have I got the wrong stadium?

Beautiful setting, but it must have been a cnut of a place for the ball boys
Why did they never look for Jimmy Hoffa under the United pitch is the better question.
Our players are used to them so it’s an advantage.
Almost injured Rasmus there…
3 players into the ad boards in the same half. How on earth does this stadium pass EHS regulations?
Can someone put JR commentary to this?
