Plenty of helpful tips in that link. If you have a dishwasher, try d/w powder or liquid. Put directly onto the stain and soak in very warm water. It gets all the cricket whites clean and grass is a bugger to get out. If not, plain household soap dipped in hot water and rub the area which is stained.
Not good for delicates though.

That's how I saw the stain was still there because it was inside out when I was hanging it on the line. Make a note to yourself to do that with your tops when you get here bacause the sun fades everything.
