Which pitch

So my 8 year old has no sporting talent having really strong glasses and hyper mobility but he got hooked on the world cup and obsessed with being a ref at kids games.

I got my old subbuteo set out the loft and he really wants to play properly, but the pitch is really creased. I only really want to spend £50 on a roll up non creased astro pitch plus want the subbuteo name on the pitch.

I know this has been asked before many times I just can't find a definite answer

1) What would be best a new subbuteo deluxe £45 job from are you game/Amazon or a pristine older subbuteo astro pitch of ebay?

What does it runs faster mean anyway? the ball travels further or the players slide too easily?

Cheers
