The second leg of our facilities tour saw us head up the M1 to a sunny South Yorkshire.
We paid a visit to a Barnsley facility with no power, heating or lighting before stopping off at a downright filthy venue in Rotherham with peeling walls and caved-in ceilings - a real eye opener!
On the third and final leg of our facilities tour we paid a visit to Clapham Common in South London.
We found another venue with no power, lighting or secure storage and showers that didn't work. Players and referees alike were agreed that this was the worst venue in South London!
Club Website's facilities tour got underway with a trip to Birmingham on a cold and wet winter's day.
We found changing rooms that weren't even open, others that were nothing more than a pair of shacks and a contender for muddiest pitch of the year. What a way to kick things off!
-
The lights don't work, there's no power to the building and there's bags of rubbish everywhere.
-
The FA along with partners across the game remain committed to improving facilities year after year.
-
We've been trying to get the council to do repairs but have come up against a brick wall every time.
-
We're embarrassed about away teams coming in and welcoming them to our ground. It's shameful.
-
These aren't changing facilities really. There's no electricity, no heat and the showers don't work.
