Didn't Luton once play on it? I actually think astr-turf is more prone to leg breaks involving boots/studs gripping and taking the leg the opposite way to the players body, I've seen it a few times and the incidents involved no mistake from the players movements.

its not astro turf there talkin about its a type of felixble palstic grass thats a lot softer, i play on it at a place called goals near me, puker stuff does scratch ur leg up if u go down hard but i think its puker soaks up the water more so the playing surface isnt as slidy.
