Stephen Warnock on the training ground: t.co/vVm0O3b3UpChrist, what a joke, we're an absolute embarrassment.

Dropping back to our level really aren't we. Unless we get an owner who invests in these facilities we'll never be any more than a shit house in Yorkshire.
Also the pitch, I thought this big rework in the summer was supposed to fix it but its starting to look as shite as ever
Cheers edin you fat slavic cunt

That was a bit shit. Our only problems are using a school ground for training? Surely he's got more and better dirt than that?

Captain Admin’s back now to steady the ship so watch how slick we get behind the scenes now.
How our fans thinks Junior is the answer to the depth of our problems (many of which he had a hand in) is anyone’s guess. Everything is awesome in Gomperland though.
Joke club. The bolded part is the sort of thing we’ve been saying forever but all you get in return is, ‘we are where we are, what do you expect?’.
The truth is I don’t expect much but would it be too much to not continually languish in the bottom two divisions? Would it be too much to ask for once, just once, for someone with a bit of nous and some get-up-and-go to grab this club by the balls and squeeze? Would it be too much to ask to not have to suffer retarded seals in the stands making legends of donkeys, clapping every waster and challenging any semblance of ambition wherever it might rear its unwanted head?
At least we’ve all got a club to support though. Insert obligatory remark about collection buckets here.

He doesn't mention that it's posh private school though does he? Making us look even shitter than we are.

The replies on the worlds tamest forum tell me everything i need to know about the ambition of this football club. They revel in the fact of being tinpot. Just happy to have a club to support? You fucking betcha. Stephen Warnock has played all his career at a higher level, he's telling us our facilities ain't good enough. Old butthead himself Simon Grayson has managed at a higher level with bigger clubs, he told us the facilities weren't up to scratch. Apparently this doesn't matter to our fans though, no wonder, they're happy to bum around the khazi division as long as they have a club to support.

What a primadona! Good job him and old Gammon Chops Grayson weren’t here before Parkinson showed up. God knows what they’d have thought of having to play keep ball around the dog shit at Apperley Bridge! If that was good enough for Carbone and co then I’m sure that they could put up with Woodhouse Grove.
Jesus H Christ, he was here when we had the arrogant, egotistical megalomaniac prick Edin in charge who was systematically destroying our club and he chooses the fucking training pitch as his example of how the club wasn’t being run properly.

Why is everything Owen says automatically taken as gospel on there? Warnock, as an ex player, is pretty much independent. He has no axe to grind or points to score. Owen, on the other hand, has been involved in organising the running of the club and has been for years. He’s hardly an independent party - he’s bound to say its being well run.
People believe him because he says what they want to hear - that (Edin aside) everything is fine, dandy and on the up-and-up. The good times are only a handful of seasons away and we can believe him because he’s doing a fine job. We know this because he tells us often enough.

You really need to look at the bigger picture. This club needs to up its game in every aspect. Attention to detail in even the smallest detail, when put together, can make a huge difference. This ain't a Sunday league kickabout we are talking about, its a professional football. But hey, i guess the facilities mirror our ambitions as a club, why we've been stuck in the bottom two divisions for most of our history. #happytohaveaclubtosupport

Why is everything Owen says automatically taken as gospel on there? It’s the old British cap doffing disease. In some people’s eyes he’s important, so he can’t be possible for him to not give the full facts, or ever get it wrong. I think he’s a bit of a prick, if I’m honest.

We’ve been awful in this area for fuck knows how long. It needs some proper investment, proper facilities. It’s just stupid. What’s the end game here? The plan? There isn’t one. It’s about tying to survive on a day to day basis for the least cost.
Even current players Doyle and Aoc have said we’re a shambles. Get your fucking cheque book out Rupp.

And they’re queueing up to out-of-hand call it all bollocks. These people have learned nothing from the whole, sorry Edin debacle; they’ve just jammed their fingers straight back in their ears whenever anything they don’t want to hear is said. And Roger Owen is dishing out ear plugs.

Do the players still have to get changed and showered at the club after driving back from training like they did until a few years ago?
And to think about that campaign to get fans to pay for a fucking video scoreboard when our training facilities are so dire they aren't even caveman standard.
And to think development, scouting, training etc were all part of Rahics philosophy for 'developing' young, profitable, talent.
He'd have more success looking for them inside Rupp's arse.

That is absolute gold. This arrangement and facilities are “the envy of many” 😂 Don’t worry lads “we have our own bibs and cones” 😂 He stopped short of calling a Warnock a liar by revealing Warnock wasn’t at these negotiations (no shit) and therefore doesn’t have a clue. It’s as if he’s forgotten he played for us for 6 months.

It’s as if he’s forgotten he played for us for 6 months. I didn’t understand how Warnock not being at negotiations somehow negates Warnock’s lived experience either. I find Owen to be a bit superior. It’s as if he believes everyone should just accept his testimony supersedes that of anyone else no matter who they are, what they’re saying or what their experience is. There’s a fair few on there who are quite happy to sign up for that relationship too.
