DCFC27 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 We have put green netting around the training ground in an attempt to make it more difficult for outsiders to see in... Surely Black would have made it less transparent as you can see through the netting on the photos and more 'on Brand' ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TibshelfRam Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Is it thick enough to prevent pliers cutting through it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GenBr Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 What is the point of that. Why didnt they buy something that it is actually opaque. Construction sites use it all the time - I'm sure we could have got some with some DCFC branding on or even got some advertisements on it. Or just make it solid green if you dont want it to stand out too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They sell loads of useful stuff we could use such as.... those balaclavas that IRA paramilitaries and rapists wear, with just the eye holes and mouth holes the top off a helicopter with the rotars missing (i'm saying nothing) lots of pairs of used and visibly soiled trainers for the bargain price of £18 a pair? an outdoor table that looks like it came out of a skip (£125 only) a selection of caps and berets useful for dressing up and wife swapping parties long johns sleeping bags a large missile those fold up aluminium saucepans that give you alzheimers Camouflage netting to put over your own head Ammunition boxes (empty) Safety boots and fluorescent jackets Big nails England flags perfect selection - just in time for br exit.

I love that place. First time I ever went there they had a Vickers Venom (1950s jet fighter) on a pole above the far Park. Also seen armoured cars for sale there and all sorts of stuff.

IlsonDerby Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 It'll probably be the most we can get away with putting up with it being on green belt land (see whingers living around there that dug their heels in over us expanding it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamNut Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I heard that after they surrounded the training pitch with nets, all of the players ran onto the pitch apart from tom lawrence who missed and ran into the car park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r_wilcockson Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Heard the netting is to prevent stray balls going into people's gardens when Lawrence is training. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
