A small update from a paving company:

Despite the recent difficulties faced over the past few months, the team here at PrimaPorcelain are extremely excited and proud to share the latest updates regarding our project with former English Premier League Champions, Leicester City Football Club! The Foxes have been hard at work over the last year building their state-of-the-art, £100m training complex which is set to be completed for the start of the next Premier League campaign and progress over the last few months has really started to pick up. 

PrimaPorcelain has helped in the creation of the new Seagrave training ground by supplying over 600 square metres of our gorgeous Concrete Silver porcelain paving which is being installed within the players' hydrotherapy garden and courtyard terraces located in the main building. The porcelain tiles are being installed on top of our adjustable, self-levelling support pedestals, which have contributed to the quick turnaround and progress on-site. 

 

As well as high-quality porcelain paving and tiles, our sister company TimberTechUK have also supplied Leicester City with more than 500 square metres of their EasyClean Terrain+ Silver Maple composite decking, which is being installed on balconies of the main, centrepiece building. 

The whole team here at PrimaPorcelain are incredibly proud of the progress made so far on the installation of our porcelain tiles and very much look forward to seeing the finished results. Be sure to keep an eye out on further updates from us, where we will be showing off the final look!

Yes me because the other was full of none construction stuff and could have put people off looking.

Just a shame that it won't be used until that infamous junction is dealt with somehow.

Or the application to open without it being completed is approved.

Forget "massive" ... we have just established the "neutron star" category for club facilities.

How does this compare to other premier league clubs?

The absolute dogs bollocks. Can’t wait till it’s fully operational and we’ve moved in.

 

Just for comparisons sake I hope the club do a drone shot of Belvoir Drive 

[Hollyfox]

One of the biggest steps the club has ever taken. 

Looks like it'll be the absolute dogs 💙💙👋👋👋

It look so small I missed it, thought that was just the team benches.

Do you think they'll ever in a post covid world charge people to come watch training as a new revenue stream outside of the tactical stuff ofc. I can see it happen where players play a quick 5 a side for spectators and are charged £10 or something to watch from close. 

[Guest WarehamFox]

Sure Bielsa would pay

Sure Bielsa would pay a few pounds to sit and watch us train.

Love it I was arguing with my mate who’s a typical arrogant Man United fan . He was saying  how we’re a small town with a small  club mentality  and will always be a selling club and we’re just a stepping stone for the good players until they swoop in and buy them . To which I replied thanks mate for helping us grow as a club . You bought our 3rd best defender at an over inflated price of 80 million that has paid for  3/4 of our training ground plus  outr defence has tightened up . Please feel free to buy another player to pay for a stadium expansion. I’ve just sent him that vid  with thanks again mate to which he replied with a two word answer the second being off .😂😂

A facility surely worthy of a Champions League football team.

I reckon they'll play at least some of the U23 games there. Be a chance to look around.
