Anyone know what stage we are at with the training ground?

All seems to have gone quiet since we got planning permission.

It's been out on hold because of some rare newts were found or something I believe?

Bats?

Thinking!
Planning permission may not be just for our club! There may be over developers with planning permission as well after the same land?
Does the land still belong to the Council ?
We have been here before !
Just a thought.

Does that mean nobody knows anything?
Notice nothing has started yet.

Just heard on radio that work will start shortly and we will be moving in 2014/15 season

This is good news, the bloke just along from me is convinced that we shouldn't be bothering with the training ground and should be spending the money on players... I can't be bothered to argue with him about how getting the EPPP category 2 status is dependent upon this facility being built.

Also, to a footballer the training ground is their every day place of work - far more so than the stadium, and I think that us punters forget that sometimes.

Must also be good news for housing developers looking at adjacent sites to build much needed housing in the area.
