Correct me if I'm wrong but that hasn't been there before or has it? I understand what Mowbray means about now that if you want first class players on the pitch you've got to have first class facilities off it. Let's be honest whilst it's not a massive factor, if a player has a choice between us and another League 1 club and someone takes them around the Ricoh/training ground I'm sure they would choose us because they want to be in a first class environment and want to play/train in these facilities.

Agreed. It's a very strewd move from Mowbray and he is 100% correct. You cannot expect standards from players if standards of the club don't match.

Under Waggott and Fisher we were told how professional the club was run. Now under Mowbrey I hope we start being professional.

I know, the Leicester fans are chucking themselves off the cliff like Lemmings after Pearson's sacking. Perhaps "Go for it Buddy" was ill advised.

I wonder if that was one of the crests which Wasps made us take down from the Ricoh and was just knocking about somewhere? :thinking about: Looks good anyhow!

Webster got released, no? Maybe he's just training with us to improve his fitness and find a new club. He can fuck off though if that's the case, don't mind the club helping players who were decent for the club but not Webster who was absolute shite.

What's the point in helping a player if he was crap for us? We don't owe him anything, he owes the fans though for having to pay to watch his attempts at defending.

Its not uncommon these days is it for players to train with former clubs? If he lives locally and he doesn't have an attitude problem or cause disruption then I don't really see it being a problem.

I can't believe that the club badge wasn't on the front gates or the front of the building, that's shameful. Well done TM for addressing this embarrassment.

Can't believe this needed addressing; fair play TM for looking at the wider picture of the club.

Garbage. He should have developed a silly name spoke in a silly European accent and then you'd be saying he was a big fucker and wanking over him.
