Roundwood

I remember them training on our school pitch once, think they trained on other school pitches too, have had it worse in the past.

Indeed,the season we won 4th division title under mcewan,we trained at orgreave…remember kelham telling me the “moving the dog sh1t “line was literally true…!.. seem to do us no harm that season…

training at keepmoat donccaster in the dvs years,was another situation,albeit in a set of difficult circumstances we found ourselves in at the time..ronnie got told off by TS about complaining about it in press.!.

Way back in the day when I was at Redscope I seem to recall they trained up on Barker's Park

LR knew what the training ground was like before he took the job......or should have done.Every summer we get told how much investment has gone into it and every new manager states how many improvements need to be made. All this maybe true but the bottom line is that the Roundwood training ground has facilitated about 4 promotions and 5 relegations. I really don't think that had we a state of the art facility that we would now be sat comfortably in mid table.

would be nice to have a training ground we could use all the time. Friday Rotherham couldn’t use it , had to train on the pitch at nys . Four promotions in spite of the training facilities not because of it .

As usual everything is as clear as mud. Warnock knew what he was talking about but as usual we just put a sticking plaster over the problem. We are a sticking plaster club reactive to a degree but not proactive. We would be better prioritising getting decent training facilitiesgood and a decent academy and then think about pushing up the leagues. Might not go down well with the fans but if this was explained to them they might be patient to a degree.

Any good academy player will be long gone before we would get a fee

Well actually it was 35 and 15 years ago respectively but numbers are never your strong point.!..

Don't understand what this comment has to do with the point I was making.

If you would like me to explain the point I was making just let me know

Even clapped out Millmoor had an indoor pitch, known as the gym and built at the behest of one T Docherty. Not a full size pitch but not bad. This does make me wonder. It was only 50 plus years ago though so I'm being terribly unfair

No you are not, but where could it be built? And I once went in that gym and it was not even 25% of a pitch!!! 🙄
