Do hope it is sponsor free in name.

I personally hope they utilise a new opportunity to bring significant money in the club to help pay for it/put it towards growing more. 
 

Really don’t understand why people get offended by sponsorship naming rights. 
Even more so on a completely new one.

Sponsor ship deal and tours in the summer! Happily pay £20 to go and have a look around!

[Samilktray]

Do any clubs actually offer paid tours of there training grounds

Why would they! Have you seen the majority of training grounds! This is on another level and fans would pay. So why not? 

[Webbo]

It'll be The Vichai Centre, surely?

I've heard Newcastle do.

 

Well not so much a tour, more of a gets turned into an obstacle course for youth groups in the summer kind of thing.

[Hales]

I'd totally pay for a guided tour! The place looks insane 🤩

Hopefully not. 

 

I mean this in the best way possible but you can over do something. 

 

Vichai has a memorial garden, going to have a hotel shaped like a V and a statue at the ground as well as calling it TG after him? No thank you.

Why not give a man everything that gave us everything?

Virtual presser ..... they could do it from Brendan’s kitchen if he took the sponsors backdrop home with him ! 

Not a dig at you St Albans  but god I hate the word "presser". It sets my teeth on edge every time.

Quite. Nobody called Filbert Street the "City Business Stadium". But if you call the current ground "Filbert Way", people get arsey for some reason.

It'll always be The Leicester Fosse Freemans Wharf Bowl to me  #notreally

Today was probably the last presser at the stadium. The club can start using Seagrave from today according to the Mercury article in the op.

I'd imagine visiting managers would still be using the media room for European matches though?

@Spudulike I suspect pre match pressers will be done at the new training ground (virtually at first and then with journalists present when circumstances change) but post match will be done at the KP, presumably in the same room as before. Currently post match is done pitchside for broadcast rights holders and then there's a zoom for everyone else (inc written press etc).

 

@Ecdysiast Not sure what grinds your gears so much about "presser" but it's widely used in the biz.

I think it's meant to be today. Someone has said the 18th, I think.

[StanSP]

@Ecdysiast what's the worst presser you've experienced? And what about the best presser? What about when the word presser is used as someone who pressures an opponent in a specific tactic/set-up? Or is presser only disliked in the context of a press conference?

[Webbo]

I had a terrible presser once, my trousers were full of creases.

[HighPeakFox]

One of Vardy's many qualities is that he's an aggressive presser.

Wasn't it the admin people moving today and teams on the 18th?
