  • It wasn't a question though, was it, it was a statement on what, in his opinion, the facility needs.

    When someone posts the same things on every food related thread and sometimes on non food related threads, at what point do you think it does become pushing an agenda? Even mods have had to mention it to Seth in the past.
    What on earth are you talking about?
    You are simply wrong I'm afraid.

    Then please point put where the question was.

    Also I guess AFKA didn't have to pull you up on bringing up veggie options for every club event going, despite having no intention of going?

    Wrong how exactly?
  • AFKA has not 'pulled me up' for bringing up veggie options for every club event going.
    My comments on club events are more like the price you pay for what food you get and how the price excludes people.
    Point out where what question was?
    If you read my first post on this thread I mention car parking, separate veggie cooking areas, the memorial garden and a tea hut all in the context of what good news this is. Later I enquired about whether there were fan lights or solar panels on the roof...that bit was a question.
    So the 'wrong how exactly' is the inference that I am a poster held in check by moderators for occasionally mentioning vegetarian food. There are others who mention vegetarian/vegan food in their posts too. I have never noticed moderators trying to prevent any poster from mentioning such stuff.
    You are wrong in what you say about me on this thread.
  • So I come onto this thread. Getting really encouraged and excited about the plans and the ambition. 
    Finish up being totally depressed about petty arguments. Only on CL!
  • Surprised no-one's mentioned the absence of penalty spots yet.

  • I dunno i find it mildly amusing seeing people being shut down with their own words.
  • Well, the building certainly isn’t going to win any awards for architectural design.
    Functional is the word I guess.....I would like to see a couple of ‘pleasing on the eye features’ to make it more homely and to give it a more warmly and welcoming appeal.

    I imagine the limited space makes that hard
  • Aint there enough grass to graze on for the food extremists, or can I suggest you make a start on that annoying little tree

    Just stop now, this is a petulant argument.
    DM one and other if you care that much, because I can assure you no one else does.

    Like this homely enough

    Maybe.....but inventive architects should all be well accustomed to awkward space limitations.
    I myself have no idea what could be done along those lines, but I would just like to see a bit of individual originality rather than a featureless concrete and glass block. One that everyone could go away from having seen a nice/interesting looking building.
  • Some mock Tudor cladding would make it look amazing.


  • One thing that should be considered ASAP is the Pierre Bolangi memorial garden.

    @Fanny Fanackapan
    I'm free !

    I did ask someone to bring this up at last Friday's meeting if/when the SL development was on the agenda but presume this was overlooked. 

    As I stated a week or so ago, the issue will be brought to the notice of MS shortly.

    Whilst I get your point, as a building it only really needs to be functional, I'd rather that money was spent elsewhere
  • If you look at some of the new facilities going up around the Premier League then yes these plans do look formulaic and dare i say boring.

    BUT compared to what we have now and THE TRENCH we have to be grateful that this new mob are pushing our wonderful academy forwards.

    And a Creteprint car park to finish it off (even go a French drain in the photo) -

    On a Michelin star quality vegan restaurant?
  • ''Be careful or I'll have a family member come and insult you。 :D
    You think that's how family works? "Come help me fight fires"? Man, your life must be warped.

    See - the thing is, I get on with mine, so yeah, of my own volition I'm happy to stick up for Seth. I'm really, really sorry for you that apparently you have such a transactional view of family that I was doing this as some sort of favour.
  • Give it a rest all of you, bloody hell. 

    Don't need to ask for separate areas in kitchens for vegetarian and vegan food, that's already a thing in all professional kitchens worth their salt, and seeing as sports nutrition etc is a forerunner in plant based proteins and fuels, I don't think this will be an issue going forward.

    I'm surprised by the "rest areas" as people have called them, sure look like digs to me, but maybe that's a way to get around certain restrictions on building and planning permission. 
  • @Off_it

    Find most of your posts quite funny but think you are wide of the mark here. 

    The bloke literally offered to volunteer for the club in order to make the experience of fans attending youth games at SL more enjoyable...Fair play!

    If he believes there should be a separate area in the Kitchen for veggie/vegan food preparation then who cares 

    It doesn’t really affect your life...

    Got a nagging suspicion that they'll be digs for players shipped in, as has already been touted by MS
  • "You do make me laugh Seth. 

    Every year without fail fail you end up in some meaningless debate about an event you have zero likelihood in attending. "

    Yet there's no agenda....

    Your first post had no question, as paddy had claimed:

    "Also need a secure bicycle storage area, and a separate kitchen (area) for vegan/ vegetarian food"

    Unless one has an agenda there is no reason a football clubs training facilities need a seperate vegetarian cooking area.

    So not wrong.

    Yes wrong.
    What on earth 'agenda' is there FFS?
    Sheesh. When the Valley West Stand was being planned a council officer asked about separate changing facilities for female match officials. At the time the question was mocked, yet yesterday we saw the female assistant at Brentford, was the council official asking a question because they had an 'agenda'?
    On this thread my first post was uncontroversial, yet out of a clear blue sky you have created friction not because of what I wrote but because of what looks like your personal antipathy towards me.
