Do owners usually go on pre season tours?!Doug soaking up the sun in the background
Wouldn’t have thought so. May have decided to do his usual weekly meeting with Robins in Valencia - why not I guessDo owners usually go on pre season tours?!
Maybe he flew out to meet Dovin ?Wouldn’t have thought so. May have decided to do his usual weekly meeting with Robins in Valencia - why not I guess
Maybe he flew out WITH Dovin? Signing done at Ryton maybe and then flew to SpainMaybe he flew out to meet Dovin ?
I had the same thought with the other one yesterday. Seemed impressive but then I’ve no frame of reference!The only thing il say though , is I have no idea what the standard of our training sessions are like compared to other clubs so I'm just watching these videos smiling and not really knowing if it's good or shit

If these videos are anything to go by, we’re going to have 11 ferrets on the pitch hounding teams out
Watch this video from 2 days ago of Sunderland and compare it to how we look - they look so slow compared to us!
Yeah, defo. Just knowing how Robins and King want a quick start I think you can see that emphasised in what we see of the sessionsTo be fair we could be doing slow intensity stuff later on and not filming it whereas they are showing that.
It's impossible to say.
So I've had a little look Into Rhys Carr and actually could end up being a great appointment .
His history has basically been developing young players either individually or through routines involving several other players of a similar position .
At Sheffield united they were responsible (the team he was involved in ) developing 8 young international footballers including Ndiaye .
Promising , can hopefully take a few of our players to another level
When I first noticed him I thought who the **** that.Doug soaking up the sun in the background
12 years I have been running, 6 times a week 2 times a day. The level they are training at from a pure cardiovascular stand point and taking into account the 30 degree heat, they are training at a really high intensity.The only thing il say though , is I have no idea what the standard of our training sessions are like compared to other clubs so I'm just watching these videos smiling and not really knowing if it's good or shit

The sessions are probably between 1 hour and 90 minutes dependant on the type of training, much of the sessions will be based around high intensity/ short burst running and sprints, with lots and lots of pauses to rehydrate, as the pre season winds down the players will be closer to match day fitness.
The players will be doing longer/ low intensity running to further improve on their conditioning. this is likely to be towards the end of the pre season in order to minimise injury.
Just based on the mini clips they are uploading and factoring in the heat, these lads are being put through it and this clearly makes it increasingly obvious King wants them to be dominating come the start of the season.
Orange Ken would have been all over training sessions in Spain. Fortunately for us the pre season trips back in the day was at a Butlins 80’s revival weekend where the players had to sleep 4 to a chalet.It’s great that Doug is so interested to be honest. How many other owners would be at a training session?
Tbf, the first lad would move faster if he didn't have a big rubber band around his ankles.Watch this video from 2 days ago of Sunderland and compare it to how we look - they look so slow compared to us!
If only that could be done with a beer in your hand.Carr has a good CV in fairness. But let's be honest fans haven't got a clue who the coaching staff is at clubs up and down the country and who is good and who isn't? I bet a lot of fans couldn't name the coaches who were working for England and Southgate at the Euro's?
One reason I like to turn up early on match day. Walk in with no stress of queues at the turnstiles panicking about missing kick off. But I actually like watching the warm up drills and casting my eye over the opposition's passing skills and shooting ability.
