New Training Ground Tour.

[Supershrimper]

I'd be quite interested in a tour of Roots Hall. Only bits I've ever seen are the stands and access to them. Never seen any "behind the scenes" access unless in video

Ricky Otto did a few private tours and got in trouble over it.

I wonder what you'll see on this tour exactly, not a dig.

Exactly my thoughts. As exciting as it might be, unless I'm missing something, all you're going to see are a few football pitches that may or may not have grass on them and an attenuation pond.

I suppose, being positive, it is a good PR exercise.

 

[C'mon you Shrimpers]

I think what people will see on the tour (and I'm envious as I haven't a ticket) is the club's ambition. Positive thinking everyone.

No I think the digging is finished

Tour info suggests Wellies are essential footwear. With the wet weather I imagine parts of the site are very muddy. Can anyone whose been let me know if wellies essential or would ankle high walking boots be OK?

TIA

You could at least have bought ones that fit you, @The Big Dady!

Same here, it'd be great to see the behind the scenes stuff, perhaps the club could look to incorporate it into a hospitality package

Maybe Fee Waybill of the Tubes would lend you a pair?

That looks like a new formation too. I'm concerned at the amount of space available between the defenders and the midfield though.

Is that 3 at the back or 5?

I was delivering around stock road and surrounding areas today and noticed some work being done near the main road by a few guys in a couple of Prime Irrigation vans. Digging a rather large hole in the ground and I’m guessing trying to fix something.

Looking for the warchest.

Looking for the warchest.

Suspect that the contents of the war chest was transferred to the BVI !
