Watching the team train
Is it possible for supporters to go down to Beckenham and watch the team train?
I know back in the day at Mitcham you could just turn up watch the training and meet the players afterwards not too sure about these days? |

We live within 500 yrds of the Forest training ground.
If I was bothered I could stand on a box and look over the wall at them training. Maybe you could hid in some bushes etc? |

complete contrast to the old Mitcham training ground, where you could have a stroll around without anyone raising an eye brow. I miss the old decrepit wooden huts

Nearly scraped Ron Noades's beamer parking up there one Sat morning. Johnny Salako then scored 5 in a youth team game against Southend and great bacon butty at half time. Funnily enough, I don't remember the 1st team game I went to in the afternoon.

I think access was stopped after thefts from the training ground, so they needed to beef up security.
Plus there are on-going concerns with all major teams now with regard to the media/fans taking pictures etc, the opposition scouting (for team news, tactics, new talent) and agents making a nuisance of themselves. I think ST holders can watch youth matches there on a Saturday, but that's about it. |
