First official confirmation that the Eady money is involved? Lots of new details there, and if the Eady trust are satisfied then it suggests that the facility will benefit the club even beyond Power's tenure. Promising?

It sounds good, as long as it's an asset of the club and not Lee Power.
I don't want a training ground funded by the Eady money being rented to us when Power fucks off.

if the club own it, not power or holding company, it could be good.

have to say i thought power was already doing this.

fucking odd time to release a statement

Interesting use of the word "considering". I thought it was where the transfer money went. Does power still get his housing. As batch says a weird time for a statement

I took considering to just mean planning permission isn't in place yet rather than anything more malign. Maybe that's just me not being cynical enough...

hope he won't be owning it full stop.

considering could mean lack of planning permission, or it could mean assessing the stipulations the Eady trust may put down.

who the fuck knows with power

I thought he said last season that work had started and they were hoping to start using it this season.

Must have been training playing 6 a side on the 14th hole putting green

My theory is the following. He's had enough and wants out, he will either rent to the club or will now or sell it outright with the club buying it with the Eadie money

Stupid decision.

Can't believe the Eady trustees let Power anywhere near the money

1. Announcement timed to deflect the Bolton Bury result.
2. Training ground already being used in some capacity as Lukewarm likes to have his pre/post training coffee in the Co-op cafe in Highworth.  He was in there Saturday morning around 10am.  Unless he just likes the Co-op in Highworth, of course.

The Eady money should be for Swindon, not Highworth. This is an opportunity to push on with the county ground site if the trust can get their arses in gear and make realistic offers. Combine the Eady money with the trust bid. Get some large companies from the town involved too

We don't know they are. In fact, we don't know anything about this deal, so maybe let's hold up on slagging everyone off?
