For historical reasons, the dimensions of the pitch are given in whole numbers of yards. I propose we switch the likes of "16.46 metres (18 yd)" to "18 yards (16.46m)". —Quantling (talk | contribs) 14:14, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I made the change to use the historic, round numbers instead of the modern, high-precision numbers. —Quantling (talk | contribs) 17:42, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@The Pict's: I see from your edit history that the Sido Makmur SP II Field is one that you are knowledgeable about. I appreciate what appears to be enthusiasm on your part but, please, highlighting it serves no purpose to the present article. Can we remove the image without having to go to Wikipedia arbitration? —Quantling (talk | contribs) 19:28, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

From the picture I can see that a football field must be minimum 90 meters long and a maximum of 90 metres wide. Are there any rules about proportional size? Because a square football field would be horrid! Opspin (talk) 10:32, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
