Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted May 23 Report Share Posted May 23 As mentioned already the Bristol.live article is wrong, using figures from earlier in the season. The actual up to date figures are on a League 1 stat site. Not particularly impressive for a club who’s fans claim their away support is the envy of teams up and down the country 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sleepy1968 Posted May 23 Report Share Posted May 23 21 hours ago, GreedyHarry said: Ok so bit of fact checking here. Below is a training ground with driveway, car park with many cars, and turning space for coaches. Alongside is a substantial building incorporating stand adjacent to a pitch with dug outs and full perimeter barriers. To the right are 2 full size pitches and below is an area with markings that suggest training for set pieces And then we have (at the same scale), a driveway with some gravel and 4 cars. A small t shaped building and another building down a path and then a field with the grass mown in pretty patterns. Yep identical. Haven't checked the rest of posts past this one, so apologies if this has already been addressed, but the u21/academy/womens training pitches are below this to the left, adjacent to the golf club. I don't know if this is shared with the school or not. I've outlined in blue because I can't see how to change to red on android. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noticed the spelling mistake at the entrance to Trampland. Since when has "Squatters" been spelt "Quarters"? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For him he could probably get a 2 year deal with a coaching role, and the added bonus of not having such a terrible commute to away games that comes with playing for Plymouth. I could definitely see why he'd be tempted to go to Bristol's footballing equivalent of a donkey sanctuary. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The strange thing about that satellite photo are the piles of various what looks like building materials and spoil just dumped around the place. It reminds me of waste land or a farm yard where the farmer just doesn't care about the look of the place. Perhaps it has been tidied up now and the photo is old. Perhaps not.
