Top tips to remove them as its a loosing battle in this house.

Have tried vanish spray and in wash powder, ariel actilift on the stain, soda crystals in the wash, hot wash and now a cooler wash in various combinations to no avail.

Any suggestions?

wet the stain and rub washing up liquid into it before rewashing?

This is an ongoing problem for us too as we have two boys who both play. We do it the following way:
Damp the grass stain with warm water
Sprinkle on some dry washing powder and rub in till its a paste
The add fairy washing up liquid and squidge it about
Leave for an hour and then wash.

Works every time.

Not this summer though - they have only played about 5 matches out of the 30 or so they should have played already - flaming weather!!!!

Good luck!
