If there's any need to ask if anyone "cares" about pitch dimensions, then yeah.

In that case you may be right. This doesn't happen as far as I'm aware and perhaps should on very, very rare occasions. Although saying that I can't remember the last time I saw a keeper in real life be stupid enough to do this. </BLOCKQUOTE>

There has been quite a few in the Premier League alone in recent times and I imagine it gets more common the further down the leagues you go.

Does it happen often enough IRL to warrant it being added in FM?

I'm not convinced - infact having thought about for ages i can barely think of a time when it has happened in any of the top leagues...

As to groundsman - it makes a big difference - just leave it on default if you don't like it, no sense moaning about it here.

LFC Lloyd - quite a few in the premier league? I can't remember seing one this decade....

I'm not saying that it wouldn't be realistic happening occasionally, it's just that it's a tricky thing to make happen rarely enough, and seing how the ME evolves, it would probably fluctuate from too few to too many between patches.

No, I haven't seen this. But what I have seen are back or midfielder passes it back under pressure into the middle of the pitch right in front of goal, no one on my team moves, and the opposing striker picks it up and scores a goal. Granted, I'm managing in the BSP, but that's a move I got miy kids to stop making back in U11.

Is it that a big a deal? Sure they should be in there but they happen so rarely IRL that it doesnt detract from the game. Also, I could just see it causing more problems.

on another subject. what does everyone think about this.

e.g. my left back plays the shittest pass in the world across his own box in the first minute, their striker intercepts and scores. i often find myself clicking on the player in frustration! what about being able to click on the player as described, but fm sees this as you, the manager, shouting at the player 'wake the **** up'! as sir alex once said to evra!
