CONFIRMED HSBC Sports Ground - New first team training centre

[Berkshire Blade]

Back to actual training facilities, check out what little old ‘muff are putting up…


This is what we’re competing with. It’s all down to luck with ownership.

And Birmingham announcing huge plans too. Getting left behind without even a fake image of what they could be. Not even a Tingo style oil refinery one.

And Lineker

unless the Eagles and Sheffield FC do a U turn on the transport ground

Has there been similar outrage on junior football from these plans?

Why would we give them any keys by way of exchange ?

This will be by far the best signing of the summer. Hopefully there is a real plan to get going with the project and we don't sit on it for years.

Everybody round for 5-a-sides!

 

[Jon Bon II]

Can it play upfront or centre half in a back 4?

If Trusty is worth £6m and it costs £6m to get this place operational, I’d take that hit.

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

This and the hotel refurb show we're finally getting our shit together off the pitch like a functional sporting enterprise in 2024!!

Whatever has driven this behind the scenes is a force for good and long may it continue!

 

[Blade for Sale]

Shall we name the Dean Hammond Centre

Plate tectonics, even on this geologically inert isle, will still cause millimetric movement of the site several orders of magnitude higher than that managed by the aforementioned gentleman in his time with the club. It's a no from me.

We probably still owe £4.95m on his fee after signing him from Arsenal....

[S64 Blade]

Hoping for some pictures of Bettis up there, cleaning up the dog shit and chasing away pigeons.

 

[Houston_Blade]

Didn’t Bettisssssss say August? He didn’t say which August though, smart bloke!

 

[HarryHaslam]

Someone posted abit further up that we got the keys last Thursday the 29th.

 

[I should coco]

Hoping for some pictures of Bettis up there, cleaning up the dog shit and chasing away pigeons.
