JohnnyQuinnsQuiff Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 At most grounds the Away changing rooms are basic, whilst the Home one is luxurious. Probably at Hillsborough, the Away one is basic and the Home one is even less than basic? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorrallOwl17 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Looks like paying absurd wages to players sitting in the stands and not accepting offers for previous players before letting them go for nowt has really paid dividends, well played DC, again. Everything always comes back to him doesn't it? Every little could have helped with upgrading training facilities if he wasn't such a crank of an owner. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still wouldn't be surprised if he was a left field appointment for the likes of Brighton or Brentford... Lets face it their managers are in demand from the big boys, especially De Zerbi.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better quality of life in the south on the kind of money he would command and working for a club that mirrors his own ambition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersiggi2 Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 I've been in the home changing room twice - once years ago and then again recently on the ground tour. It's changed significantly. Our tour guide told us the home dressing room was reduced in size of the orders of Chansiri as he felt it was previously too big. He felt the team would be more connected in a smaller environment. It is pretty snug nowadays. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retired Owls Fan Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 To be honest, that comment from DR doesn't really say what his problem with the changing room is. It doesn't say it's too small. It could be the lighting is too basic. The AV kit could be too old. The showers, might need a refit and better ventilation. I think his point was more about providing an aspirational environment. Training pitches, facilities at middlewood, parking, etc. I imagine those changing rooms are looking as neglected as the rest of the ground at the moment. The pitch hoardings and stand fascia is looking as tatty as i've ever seen it. Even the PlusNet days the ground might have been old, but it was at the very least clean (excluding the kop toilets) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshy Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 That pitch has been neglected beyond. No wonder we advertise every other week for ground staff. They probably all know full well that a pitch of that order HAS to be maintained. It’s not a simple case of mowing it and throwing a bit of seed on it. I’d have thought specialist equipment is needed all of which costs, yet simply hasn’t been looked after because I bet a certain person wouldn’t spend on it. No wonder everyone has left. No one wants that on their CV. Changing rooms, what you on about says the man at the top. You only get changed in it. All your analysis can be done on this old b & w Portable.
