Training Ground On The Move

Last updated : 07 September 2007 By Stuart Gillespie
The deal was originally announced by some Labour councillors back in March, but there were objections from various local councillors/busybodies to this happening in Penilee.

Instead, the current site at Ralston will be replaced with two pitches, a blaes pitch (why is this material still used? Even plastic is better!), a pavilion, changing rooms and parking. There is no sign of the academy that was included in the original plans. Saints are set to have a 20 year lease on the premises with the prospect of a further 20 in the future.

The Penilee site is also to be upgraded, as is a third one in Seedhill. Don't ask me when the work will start though!
