Yes, next summer the pitch I understand will be completely dug up, hopefully they will install some undersoil heating. A modern hybrid pitch will be installed- don't see how that can put plastic in the watercourse unless the plastic element is tiny plastic pellets which I doubt would be allowed.
Duggie Reid was groundsman in the 1960/70s - his pitches were superb compared to the ploughed fields of other teams. The pitches IIRC were higher in the middle than at the sides to facilitate drainage. However it wouldn't stand an earthly against the modern billiard table type playing surface.
