My best Xmas pressie is a book with info about all the league clubs, including their pitch dimensions.
Does the size of a pitch, and how close it is to the punters make much difference?
The playing area of Crusty is as big as they get.
What's the width and length of the new ground going to be?

I think we should be looking at near maximum dimensions for the pitch, we always play well on the larger piches (wembley for example) :D

Didn't it used to be Man City when they were at Maine Road? Not sure now but judging purely on personal experience I will say Sheffield Wednesday.

Do I get a prize?

I have known teams actually reduce the size of the pitch in an attempt to improve their results.
