Sener’s alternative to the Bernabéu’s retractable pitch

The Bernabéu's retractable pitch has become outdated and the exclusivity it once boasted is

completely gone.

Florentino even said, 'it's my invention'.

Well, now this invention only serves to damage the pitch and force you to paint it, as you can see

around here.

Because it's true that Madrid had an exclusivity clause with Sener, the engineer

who built this retractable system, so that for about 30 years only they could use it and

if anyone else used it, they would have to pay Madrid.

But now Sener has invented a very similar but alternative system that takes better care

of the pitch and avoids that exclusivity clause.

The plan now is for a tray to extend over part of the stands, also creating

the grass covering and putting down a floor to organize any

An event on top, but with the grass underneath.

Allowing you, as we've seen at the Camp Nou or on construction sites, to have the grass planted

with its aeration, ventilation and irrigation system, and soil with nutrient-rich substrate on top

and finally the grass installed and planted in soil and not on metal sheets.

Who would think that planting grass on metal or on a parquet floor is going to

grow?

It's extremely expensive to maintain that.

The system has cost hundreds of millions, no one else is going to use it, Madrid no longer

benefits from exclusivity, it shows there are much better alternatives and the truth is

not even the clause in the contract with the engineer is of much use to you anymore.

An engineer who has taken advantage of your field to learn and develop a better system

that you don't benefit from.

What do you think?

I'm reading you.

Original transcript (Spanish)

El césped retráctil de Bernabéu queda anticuado y la exclusividad de la que presumía queda totalmente esfumada. Florentino llegó a decir, es un invento mío. Pues ahora este invento solo sirve para dañar el césped y tener que pintarlo, como veis por aquí.

Porque es verdad que el Madrid tenían una cláusula de exclusividad con Sener, la ingeniera que construyó este sistema retráctil, para durante unos 30 años solo usarlo ellos y si alguien más lo usaba, pagarle al Madrid. Pero ahora Sener ha inventado un sistema muy parecido, pero alternativo, que es mejor cuida el césped y evita esa cláusula de exclusividad.

La jugada ahora es que salga una bandeja por encima de una parte de la grada, haciendo igualmente el recubrimiento del césped y poniendo un suelo para organizar cualquier evento encima, pero con el césped debajo. Permitiéndote, como hemos visto en el Camp Nou o en las obras, tener el césped plantado con su sistema de aireación, ventilación, riego, tierra con sustrato nutritivo encima

y finalmente el césped instalado y plantado en tierra y no en planchas metálicas. ¿A quién se le ocurre que plantar un césped sobre metal o sobre un parqué va a hacer que crezca? Es carísimo mantener eso. El sistema ha costado cientos de millones, nadie más lo va a usar, el Madrid ya no

le sirve de nada la exclusividad, se demuestra que hay alternativas mucho mejores y es que ya ni la cláusula en el contrato con la ingeniera te sirve de mucho. Una ingeniera que ha aprovechado tu campo para aprender y desarrollar un sistema mejor del que tú no te beneficias. ¿Qué opinas?

Te leo.
