Dan™ Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I just came across this video on Youtube which gives a quick tour around a new building on the training ground. I'm not sure how long the building has been operational but I found it interesting that we apparently chose this type of construction specifically with the idea in mind that it will be transportable to a new location in the future...

vulva Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Was watching the Brighton game recently and their CEO was on noting that it will cost them £4m to get their ground ready to meet a Premier League requirements. Everything from floodlights to press facilities, TV gantry etc. And that's a brand new ground. I presume you can't enter the league until these are done. Imagine how much it will cost us.

Looks good... But transportable you say? Didn't see any wheels on it, unless the hand barbell weights also double up as castors....

clud17 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 I think they are stretching the idea of "luxury" a little too far, it is after all a posh portacabin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spencerowl Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Im pretty sure the money we would get from the prem covers it, and a bit left over for 600 LED flood lights, 400 Lazers, 25 smoke machines and a 60ft disco ball hung over the centre circle.

I'm sure if Bournemouth and Burnley can do it we'd have no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
