let's get rid of the white lines then ====== l

Often in the early days they were no lines, bar the goal line at either end between the posts.

They have to be within these limits.
Maintaining the aspect ratio.

There is no minimum line thickness either, only a maximum of 6".

But he said “lets remove the white lines” which would mean unlimited pitch size wouldnt it??? otherwise how would demarcate the pitch????

They only came in when the rules were drawn up in a garden shed in Sheffield. The pitch size, and markings, were a Hull "invention"/decision.

Basically it's a Yorkshire game.

The pitch has to be within the limits given above, and the widest line can be no more than 6", still relevant today.

But you were talking about the day when there was no line markings……which is irrelevant.

Your first post was about current pitch dimensions, when someone was quoting removing lines….

then your 2nd post went off in a tangent about no lines at all back in the day…….then you went back to current dimensions again, none of your posts were at all coherant.
