    All roads lead to Rome. Seems all the fuss about coaches was much ado about nothing

    Hope it's better than the comedy of errors of last pre season

    Sounds like the players are in for a tough pre-season reading the article!

    Good. I want a lean, mean, fat reducing league two grilling machine of a team next season. I've seen enough pansy arsed, weak performances to least a few good years after last season.

    Agreed it appears a complete contrast to the last few summers. Could this be the start of a new era of Bantam Progressivism ?

    His description of the facilities down at Woodhouse Grove do make them sound impressive, mind you he doesn't know he has to share his lunch with the kids from school yet!

    I think he has been around enough lower league teams to know in comparison to most lower league sides our facilities are first classs

    I think the comment from @Idlebantam@Idlebantam went over your head. Wouldn’t be the first time though..!

    I was there yesterday and in the players dining area.

    They DON'T share meals with the kids.

    They eat in the players own separate dining room which is in its own block.

    The food is commissioned by the club based upon the fitness coaches requirements for protein/carbs etc. It comes specially prepared from a nutritional specialist meal provider.

    At the school, the coaches, manager and academy staff all have their own separate offices.

    The player's area which includes a TV for match analysis and dining/food area is again part of this block and separate to the school.

    Next time I'm there, I'll take photos:)

    Who’s not calm? I’m just pointing out that once again, someone’s quip went over your head.

    If anyone needed to calm down, it would be you. You might not have jumped in had you been calmer

    Shock, horror.....you mean we do after all have excellent training facilities! Wow somebody better get Grayson and Warnock in for an inspection......not.

    Our back room staff are looking impressive. Hope the players looks as fit as Rome by the time we kick off;)

    I know, but the blog story behind this - which was the target of my ire, was disingenuous to the club and the school.
