Residents who live near Leicester City's training ground are objecting to the latest phase of plans to upgrade the complex.

The Premier League club wants to install an artificial flood lit five aside pitch at its Belvoir Drive ground in Aylestone.

It has lodged its proposals with planners at Leicester City Council but there have been 11 objections from people who live nearby.

The concerns relate to a fear of excessive lighting, noise disturbance, loss of nature and additional cars parking in nearby streets.

 

The club has told the council it does not want to increase usage of the complex but just improve facility.

Aylestone ward councillor Nigel Porter said: "People who live near the training ground are happy to have the club around but there is a fear about noise. There needs to be a balance.

"The proposed hours of use are up to 10pm from Monday to Friday.

"If people are playing at that time they will be shouting.

"Then when they finish there will be car doors slamming as they leave.

"It's just a bit much and a bit late."

Members of the council's planning committee will discuss the application on Wednesday.

Officials have recommended it be approved. A planning spokesman said he did not think the proposal would have a significant impact on nearby homes.

He said, in practice, daylight allowed for use of the ground until 9pm anyway.

He said the flood lights would not significantly affect homes.

A club spokesman said: "The proposal will not affect the operation of the training ground or adversely affect the amenity of neighbouring residential properties."

However, one neighbour wrote to the council saying the training ground already caused him daily disturbance, including music to 9pm every night from the academy tent, and cars and people coming and going.

People really do moan about anything don't they. A 5 a-side game is hardly going to attract dozens of cars is it? Anyone would think it was going to attract thousands who would all be leaving on mass at 22:00. Get a life.

Top should just offer to buy all there houses for 2 million each and then knock them all down!

A great business plan, you should apply for the apprentice.

Maybe they could bring a condition in where everyone must slam their car doors shut at the same time to limit the disruption, and they could put up please be quite signs everywhere so nobody talks in the daytime either, I think the club should really encase the entire area in a sound proof booth to stop any other outside noises like planes flying over. I think this is only fair.
