Greavsy 2,398 Posted May 13, 2021 Obviously the elite would be in the spire one, other side of the road! 😊 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Paint Me Yellow 198 Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) Probably not. You could try buying a ghillie suit and hiding in some nearby bushes if it's important. Edited May 14, 2021 by Paint Me Yellow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shannock1956 7 Posted May 14, 2021 I cycle passed Coney most days. You'll need to get passed security to get in. Alternatively you can stand on your tiptoes on the flyover bridge. You might get a chance to see the training pitches through the trees. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DraytonBoy 134 Posted May 15, 2021 Times have changed, in my late teens I used to train at Trowse with my Sunday League club during the week, George Lee used to take the sessions and one of his favourite sayings was 'you're like flies round ****' meaning we're all chasing the ball.

As for the spies you will have noticed that most of the training is now done away from the main pitch - on another Desso pitch surrounded by privacy banners . Watch the Tettey video and you’ll see what I mean ( the banners with Lotus on them) If it helps here is a pic from a recent visit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
