**** hell the way some of you people belittle the club really makes me wonder if you actually support them.
I 100% am on board with criticism where it is fair....on this one though I see zero need to criticise, people moaned about training on the pitch last season....they're sorting out the training pitches....
Yeah it ain't gonna be Melwood but **** me give them a break.

I remember Carr's team training at Abington Park. Didn't do them any harm not having state that Of the art facilities.

***** hell we are a professional football team, not a Sunday side that’s glad to have a changing facility. Most professional clubs have their own trading grounds, it helps attract players and improves training. All this was identified by KT when he joined, not having our own training facility puts us behind the competition.

Not quite, I can recall seeing the team jogging around the park, and Bayo (second time) bringing up the rear on a pushbike. And that was funny to watch. He didnt like jogging, and didnt like a BMX.

I spent many a day sharing Nuffield gym with the lads as they trained. I reckon I could write Bayo's training programme on the back of a postage stamp. It was very telling watching them at the gym, and then on the pitch. A clear correlation between the two.

So what did you learn?

The problem with your statement is that it quite simply isn't true mate. I've literally just searched 5 or 6 random clubs off the top of my head. Fun fact, only one of them had a very specific owned training ground. Those clubs? Oxford United - Train at Oxford Sports Park where they have 4 dedicated pitches....much like our set up with Moulton. Rochdale - Train at the cricket club. Colchester United - Own training ground Swindon Town - Train at a local community/Council facility. Gillingham - Pay for the use of a council facility. Caveat to this, its late, I didn't search much and I know lots do own their own training facility too. Point is there are lots like us too. I'd love us to own our very own training ground and academy space btw but people act like Moulton is a shambles when it quite simply is not.

I think if you search all 92 clubs, I am sure you can’t be ar5ed and nor can I, the majority will have dedicated training facilities. The point I was trying to make was KT was saying he wanted to build training facilities in the video I posted above, it was from 2016!
