I have a correction...sorry...clay does the opposite, now that I think of it. You might not be getting proper drainage and aeration. Muck pit you said. (I was thinking of sandy soil that might let your grass dry out.)
Either way, you need to get some top soil in there to help the composition of what's underneath your lawn. Otherwise, you're going to get it choked out.
