i think pitch size is important to some coaches, i remember in the 2001/2002 season when we got to the buddies cup final and the nfp final and our coach had an exact pitch marked out at leeds road to match either post office road or hilton park .. not sure which game it was but he said it was very important as that pitch was much smaller than ours
The width of the pitch is more important than the length. The extra 6 yards is the equivalent of having one extra player when defending. It would be the same as at Huddersfield having 14 players across the width of the pitch, That is quite a difference.
Just divide the number of players by the width of the pitch to work it out
