If you want to develop better players you've got to at least match the facilities of your competitors. You have seen the current ‘facilities’ at Newport right Davie?

There's always been 'giant killing' in the cup that's what it's renowned for. I think where we sit in the English League hierarchy is a better measure of what facilities (money) can do to a club. We were at best a middling Championship club before the current owners turned up. Their money and judgement, including improving the training set up so far has taken us to where we are. Who knows without it we could be playing the likes of Newport every week, in fact we where heading that way not long ago. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope they give fans a chance to look round when it's ready (maybe through a draw or something). 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack1993 Posted 5 February 2019 Share Posted 5 February 2019 The training facility looks like it's going to be amazing, state of the art facilities, the best technology in Europe, bedrooms for the players and managers to stay in, dozens of pitches & even a school for the groundsman, We'll be attracting some of the best players in Europe and I can't help but think what a lucky bunch we are... But I can't be the only one that's p*ssed off that the training ground is only being built with 499 seats, add another one in or scrap the whole project!!!

Maybe there are some laws, health and safety or tax implications from 500 seat upwards which LCFC are avoiding by staying just under that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
