SUFC: The Future Training ground

Forums New posts
Any updates on this?

With the talk of potential signings, I'm sure showing them the training ground opposed to Boots and Laces would really help capture the signature and demonstrate a club going forward and worth signing for.

I'm sure Justin said January as a move date. I wonder if we are on course for that. Would be great to get a few additions and get the whole squad moved there for a fresh start in the new year for a real good challenge on the 2nd half of the season.

Seeing BL last Sunday, which is in rack and ruins, I think they are over there and a club video should be online soon.

Yeah Justin seemed to allude to that in his latest interview. However, today's new promotional video for SUFC tiktok, seems to have been filmed at Boots and Laces. Surely they should have waited to include the new facility.

I asked you this on the other thread. Are they using the facilities yet as well, or you not sure?

Justin alluded to them going back and forth form boots and laces to the new pitches.

BL is dead as a Dodo and is a rubbish tip, so yes they must be over there full time now.

The club did say they would put up a video soon but i guess the new media guy is still settling in.

They absolutely have to promote it. It's unbelievable the money and effort COSU have put in to get this up and running in such a short space of time. It absolutely has to be celebrated.

I've said this numerous times, it will be such a pull and an attraction for potential signings to have that facility in operation. Showing them that, coupled with the fan base and hopefully competitive salaries, will all contribute to a favourable destination to come to. Exciting times ahead!

Fans that have moaned all season about our current team don't understand that the training regime has been so difficult with having to go over boots and laces. It's a huge factor in a successful/unsuccessful season. Awful training facilities, coupled with a skeleton medical department, are not easy things to manage. Let's hope all of those things become a lot more positive. Utb!

I was over BL on Sunday to watch SUFC ladies with @Exiled Shrimper , he took some pics of what is left of the place hopefully he might put a few up.

Interesting that the interviews with CP are still taking place at Boots and Laces though. I thought there was a new media room at the new facility? Unless all of it isn't operational yet, hence the lack of promotion of it.
