Hi Guys; No its not seeded especially for the match, they graze hard with sheep to get the grass down (maybe even mow it). They dont want long grass which could be difficult to bury completely.

As someone once said, the USA & England are two great nations seperated by a different language. I guess some of your words would originate from the imigrants' own languages from around the World who first settled there. Cheers David
