Lennoxtown nearly finished

Heres some recent pictures:

 

looks like they have recently upped the pace so it should be finished by the looks of it by late july early august so it's on target.

 

looks like a call centre.... any one got any fotos o the inside.
i assume theres an indoor pitch

 

looks good

 

Yip indoor pitch but I don't thnik it's finished yet I think they are just putting up the skeleton inside. (skeleton as in florrs and walls etc)

 

we shood have had this 20 year ago.... so its good to see it come to fruition after all the promises.
well done.... is it to be opened with a bit of hula with a star and a big pair o scissors? if so who?

 

that looks fantastic , well done and about time

 

not before time, looks impressive tho.

 

Kenny miller will be cutting the ribbion....might take a few hours

 

That does look impressive, place has a nice backdrop to it in the form of the rolling hills!

Will it be in use before the season starts?

 

Id say they might be able to get it open just before the start of the new seasons
also its looknig great

 

Looks nice, they've done a good job

 

Celtic stated in January that Lennoxtown is on time and on budget and should be open for this coming season.

I think this will make a significant difference in all aspects of training to all the players that will be using it and I believe the better training surface will reduce these recurring hamstring and knee injuries that we see with players that have been largely injury free before coming to Celtic.

 

I think it looks gorgeous, I hope they'll be givin tours once it's completed.

 

given that the players will be there all the time.... i doubt it will be open to the public for tours etc.... ala * wonkas chocolate factory.

 

true, but hopefully they will at least let ya around it so ya can catch the players after training

 

it will be a good selling point to bring prospective players to see such a good training ground and also its location amidst the campsie hills will have the foreigners drooling

 

According to a pal, who is on the project management team, the complex will be a little late in being finished as there have been some problems with getting utitlities to the site, and the impact of the wet weather on the pitches being laid and getting established. Should be there by September though.

He says it is looking great, and will be delivered at half the cost of Murray Park even with equivalent facilities. Seemingly most training centres that Celtic looked at during the design stage include a lot of expensive provision that has turned out to be next to pointless and rarely used.

There are also plans for a "second phase" which is to include even more pitches, accomodation and other facilities to help with residential football courses and, possibly, conferences. No start date for that yet, as far as I know.

 

If I was trainin there I`d spend all day looking at the hills and get no work done!

 

Its in a great location to show of to potential signings etc, and it looks brilliant
