A good video look around of the improved training facilities HERE Good to see AP investing in the off field support for the players which can only improve the on field performances. As they say, winning starts on Monday (or Friday, Saturday or Sunday in these modern times )

Looks great. Fans, sponsors and back room staff all involved in stepping this on, great to see.

Looks impressive. Big investment by Adam Pearson and a world away from the Gordon Street gym.

They should get all the players training down at the old Boulevard, and let them see how lucky they are.

The facilities look to be much improved. Excellent response and investment from Pearson et al.

Whatever you invest financially into training and development facilities, the money will pay itself off many times over through the years. I'd much rather we spend money on facilities and coaching to develop the youngsters we have, than recruit externally because our youngsters aren't good enough. Ten years down the line we could be looking at a fantastic side full of Hull born and bred players, even more so than we have now.

The reality is that it has to be a balance. The infrastructure now looks like it's taking shape to support the transition of young players to first team level.
