Seagrave, AKA Terminal 3

Why would they want it?

We’d be better off selling it to Tigers.

If we’re gonna keep it we should sell Belvoir Drive for housing and pocket some cash to spend on the team.
 
Seagrave is an essential part of our business model as is a man dedicated to a coaching approach to run it.
It is the only way for a middling club to compete with the big spenders.
But of course it has to be used properly and all does no seem well there at the moment...
 
It’s a white elephant

We got above our station and built a premier league footballers luxury spa where you can tip tap a ball around for an hour or so and have a team of physios, masseurs and so on pamper you.

Sell the faacker to Champneys and get back to Belvoir Drive and some level of realism !

Dunno but as part of the last set of publicly available accounts Belvoir Drive as at 31st May 2020 was valued at £6,785,000 market value based on current use [presumably meaning a sports training ground] which includes £4,500,000 Freehold land value. Of course any "profit" from a sale is just that, money paid vs the value of the asset on the books (in 2020/21 this was £6,651,000... well, appears to be, as I have said before I am not an accountant!).

Surely an asset is a useful or valuable thing or person. The function of Seagrave falls short of any of those definitions. It appears to have been a waste of valuable resources.

Im not sure but surely all the academy lads in the first team squad at present were originally coached at Belvoir Drive.?
 
I noticed that Nathan Jones took over at Southampton and the 1st thing he did was get rid of the pool tables and table tennis tables. He said that the players are there to train.

It'll never catch on
