New Training Facility

[Kmcalpin]

It seems that the club has applied for planning permission for build new training facilities at Cleland on the site of the current but basic provision at Dalziel Park.

This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone on here.  This development is long overdue. Its well known that interested parties can object to planning applications, but maybe not as well known that any party can also submit letters of support. 

Have a look.  

I'm just surprised, that as this is already in the public domain, the club hasn't announced it yet.

Great news...this has always seemed the most appropriate answer to our training ground conundrum, to me anyway. The pitches at Dalziel are good...the lack of proper facilities have always been the drawback.

Doesn’t seem transformational to me. Upgrading a grass park to 5G? and a new building barely the size of the existing changing rooms isn’t really going to make much difference other than the players and chef no longer need to report to fir park during the week.

very much a low budget option, albeit maybe somewhat spooked by what Kilmarnock got for their (Bowie’s) investment

That's the spirit!

These plans look absolutely fine, I don’t know what folk are expecting, it’ll never be Murray Park or Lennoxtown.

Budget wise, the plans look good and it shouldn’t take long to build/get in place.

It is better than what we currently have, any improvement has to be a good thing.

They probably went for as big as they thought would realistically pass planning and not annoy the posh neighbours into objecting too much .
