Are they getting the coach to home games from here now?

I'm sure Brendan said they were staying over Christmas Day evening and travelling to the stadium from Seagrave yesterday. It was an early ko though yesterday, so ko time may dictate if they stay there and travel in together.

 

I was going to say I couldn't see the point of meeting at Seagrave and getting the coach if they've not stayed, say for a 6pm ko but it might make them think it's an away game and improve results at home. Worth a try...

Went to get some eggs again today (don't start the puns) - on my way into Seagrave I overtook someone out for a run going into the village - it was Ricardo!

 

Gonna have to be careful from now on - don't want to cause an injury crisis...

Jesus. Accidentally hitting a pedestrian would be bad enough. Doesn't bear thinking about it happening and then you see it's a key player for your club.

I was too busy trying not to run over one of the club's £100m assets.

So what you're saying is swerve to miss footballers, hit normal pedestrians instead?

Hope that he doesn't turn right on the killer junction. I've heard it's a bit dodgy.

Ideally avoid running anyone over but in the event it's a choice between a normal pedestrian and one of our £100m assets, take the normal pedestrian out. Do not take out a newt under any circumstances :o

How do you think McLaren removed them from the golf course in the first place?

I'm hoping they didn't run them over with a wheelchair....I'm assuming not or Frank would still be apoplectic :mad:  Unless you've encountered him and already 'dealt' with him....

Thought it was interesting in the Jonny Evans interview  he stated the  new ground enabled them to do training at night . 

Yeah was going to mention this when the club posted some pictures the other day. 

 

It's something Spurs have done a lot more since theirs was built. Read that they started training at about 4pm on Christmas Day which meant they all got to wake up with and spend time with the family. 


Bet it's a big boost for morale stuff like that.

Doesn't Seagrave have rooms for sleeping over, as some player's live a distance from the Leicester area it probably wasn't viable to train at Belvoir drive? Just guessing.

I think only one pitch had floodlights didn't it? The one that is used for friendlies/U23 games.... And no idea how good they actually were, might have just been to help visibility on dark days.

Probably some weird planning permission around the massive lights and it being a residential area?

This one makes the most sense to me 

 

presumably they could have trained inside though ??  Can’t think they do a heavy session the evening before a game
