Below is copy and paste of the post.

I know how fed up we all are.  Watching footy in the TV is not the same as being out in the freezing , wet cold sat in the Youngs Lower getting soaking wet through watching our beloved team.  But today we Desperately need 3 Points I don’t care how we get them.  So Positive thoughts and posts till kick-off (and a few prayers).  With a manager we trust,potential new owners looking around BP and traning facilities changes are imminent.  Stay positive, stay safe UTM ⚽️❤️⚽️❤️

I didn't take it as changes in training facilities I read it as she was just mentioning that the new owners looked around the BP and the training ground and changes in general are imminent, not that training facilities changes are imminent.

We do seriously need to revamp our training facilities however and potentially look at an out of town training ground.

When you look at what the players walk into every day I wonder if they feel like “professional” footballers having to work with such poor facilities.

Regardless of where the training ground is players will travel/relocate for decent facilities, a fair length contract that reflects their value and to play for a half decent team. All of which we’ve fallen short on.

You will get a much better house for your money versus most of the UK too.

That said geographically have a facility up the A180 may help attract more talent.

On to a 6ft x 6ft chipboard wall protector for when our strikers are at the oche.

There is a mystery man offering to buy a million pound worth of shares to provide new training ground in return for free ticket to watch games for life ( or being deported ) whichever comes first.

The way I also read Lisa’s post is that changes are imminent at the club as a whole. BUT cheapside is a disgrace after the promotion didn’t one of the fenty Bros sorted out the cabins They were fitted with a new shower block BUT after a dozen showers it runs cold unable to use.Reading on somewhere on here someone a few weeks ago said that another one of jfs companies installed the system

I don't see why we can't train on B.P. in the summer and grow potatoes on it in the winter

A simple comma after the word facilities would make all the difference.

That's where they trained prior to the Sarfend match.

I know it's only slightly more easy to get to than Cheapside but I thought when Lucarlys closed, it would be the perfect site for training facilities. Many spaceous changing rooms, the field large enough for 3 pitches, room for fitness and keep fit, and other facilities where they could reap some sort of income from it with a bar and rooms for use by the public, the same as the original use of Lucarlys
