QPR have a state of the art multi million pound training facility that opened in the summer, I don't know if you have been to our training ground but the pitches there are OK nothing more it's a school sports ground - we have improved the pitches there as much as we can without digging them up and starting again.

Sounds like our lot could get injured having a walk in the park.

It’s not just any old school.

Smyths on going calf/hamstring issues when on loan with us were not due to the playing surface he trained on.

It OK,it’s Old Chigwellians but it’s not really good enough for an ambitious L1 club, it’s one small building. We signed Paul Smyth with an injury good player but his first season was frustrating.
