There is a vast difference in grounds with regards to length and width, although they all conform within basic requirements.

Premiership grounds are all of high quality with well-developed East and West stands.

Pitches vary from the well-grassed to the completely bald.

Remember it is always possible to score at both ends, but one end may always be preferable.

Bizarrely enough, shooting over the bar is sometimes preferred.

Take care not to be red carded in the tackle.

Tackling from behind is not always an offence - check with ground owner.

Be careful, as after a few pints a ground appears to be of Premiership standard but in reality would not even be eligible for the Sidcup Social league.

Only some grounds offer five-a-side facilities.

Handling balls is allowed.

Some protection should be worn.

Singing songs about other players is banned.

Extra time may occur even if the scores are not drawn

Do not mention other grounds you have played on, or are currently playing on.

If the ground does not seem to have under-soil heating that is because it is dead - you sick man!

Scoring in dirty boxes is not always an option.

The taller your main striker the more chance of you scoring week-in week-out.

You may have trouble developing a youth team without Seaman.

Scoring with your head is only recommended if the ground has a large goal.

Pitches with snow on them should be avoided.

Wet pitches allow for long sliding tackles.

Visiting a ground too often may result in the purchase of a season ticket.

Photos of favourite grounds are useful for shooting and dribbling practice.

Players always try to get on top of their game but at times the game gets the better of them.

Local derbies are frowned upon in society.

Spectators are not usually present.

It is illegal to play on small, unturfed pitches.

You may find that the goal mouth is protected by a couple of wingers and a highly-absorbent goalie.

English grounds often have more grass with a greater distribution.

Sand in the box damages the goal and the striker.
