mcjwills Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 Seeing as Barca are kindly letting use their training ground maybe we should 'pay it forward' and let Pompey use staplewood for a few days? give them a nice tour of SMS etc. They are struggling to find somewhere to train. We're getting to use the training facilities at the biggest club in the world and pompey could get a go at the biggest club in Hampshire. Wash your mouth out with soap and water

I presume we're paying Barca something so that lets Pompey out of anything similar really.
isleowightsaint Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 @jordansibley Great day in Spain. Tour of the Camp Nou this morning followed by training session at @FCBarcelona's training ground.
diggers Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 ]I think Davis is behind Puncheon[/b] (Lallana is wearing green boots in the stretching pic). Cork is over the far side. With ball could be Morgan or Forren perhaps. Could be AL in the blue bib in front of the ball player. I wouldn't fancy standing behind Puncheon after Monday nights problem...
positivepete Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 So how many other people have done this then? They'll be up at the top commentary positions soon.... Off there for Barca vs Seville at the end of February, the weekend we are away to Newcastle
krissyboy31 Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 officialsaints Southampton FC 10s Artur Boruc, Kelvin Davis, Paulo Gazzaniga and Toni Jiménez making light work of things! Tin pot club, can't afford any wheels for their training goal posts.

Olallana Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 Great pictures on the OS now, seems that Lallana is in full football training!
Crab Lungs Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 Great pictures on the OS now, seems that Lallana is in full football training! MP appears to give the squad a lot of ROFL's, if you choose to believe the OS!
Crab Lungs Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 Just watched the Lallana interview from the Barca training camp... he's talking about the possibility of Champions League. Well, alluding to it so as not to sound stupid if it doesn't happen. Do the players really believe this !!! Fair play if that's the goal, but my oh my...

I believe they're talking about playing at Nou Camp as something to aspire to, rather than something to actually aim for.
LGTL Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 The SFC propaganda machine is well oiled at the moment I see.
Sour Mash Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 The SFC propaganda machine is well oiled at the moment I see. Non-stop tweets about being in Barcelona, nice bit of kudos training there, but don't need to over push it.
DT Posted 23 January, 2013 Posted 23 January, 2013 The SFC propaganda machine is well oiled at the moment I see. It really has gone into overdrive in order to get through the shiitstorm. Working, too, by the sounds of most on here.
Pancake Posted 24 January, 2013 Author Posted 24 January, 2013 officialsaints Southampton FC 4m This morning we are training at tje Estadi Olímpic de Montjuïc - the Barcelona Olympic stadium
hutch Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Someone has to take the pictures. That's why Adkins was dumped - shaky hand and red eye. That was Burley
Pancake Posted 24 January, 2013 Author Posted 24 January, 2013 officialsaints Southampton FC 16m What a view from the back of the stand at the Olympic Stadium! officialsaints Southampton FC 6m Time for some shooting practice - here's Jay Rodriguez testing Paulo Gazzaniga
iansums Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Bit worried for Punch, that running track makes it an awful long way to the bogs!
Minsk Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 official Clever new tactic (to be used at Old Trafford?) having 2 'keepers in goal. I wonder which outfield position is going to be sacrificed? Not sure it will be allowed though.
dubai_phil Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Have to say that someone has thought this trip through. Sure is different from the usual trips to La Manga or whatever that we used to see teams doing. Bit concerned however about manure's new tactic of turning up and infesting our local golf tournaments. Thank fook they went to Qatar not here....
Saint_clark Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 @jordansibley Great day in Spain. Tour of the Camp Nou this morning followed by training session at @FCBarcelona's training ground. Ward-Prowse, the cheeky b*stard...said in his interview that the weather wasn't that great!!!
Thedelldays Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Said of FB that lallana has resumed full training. Surely will at least be in the bench against united???
.comsaint Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Said of FB that lallana has resumed full training. Surely will at least be in the bench against united??? We don't need him for that game. We'll have Courtinho...
trousers Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Said of FB that lallana has resumed full training. Surely will at least be in the bench against united??? Yep. Wouldn't surprise me if he starts ahead of Guly either.
Matthew Le God Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Ward-Prowse, the cheeky b*stard...said in his interview that the weather wasn't that great!!! I think he was expecting Barcelona in January to be 30c. They are currently training in sunny Spain at Barcelona's training ground and the Olympic stadium with temperatures 10c warmer than they would have at Staplewood, so he can't complain too much.
Mallagroth Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Paid my own visit to a tour of 'Englands Barcelona' this week. Herbie the tour guide was a legend and had some great stories about the club and the stadium over the years, had some nice things to say about Nige and what he changed as well. I also got a chance to take a pic of the new managers tactics flipchart left up from Monday night in first team dressing room, make of it what you will, but I thought it gave an insight into how he matched them up. Also liking the players and their quotes posters up in the first team dressing room.

Dr. Kucho Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Seeing this picture makes me think, which of the current Saints players has the most potential to ever play for Barcelona? I am going for Shaw or Gaston.
tajjuk Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 What are the things that look like sports bras the players all wear in training these days?
Matthew Le God Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 What are the things that look like sports bras the players all wear in training these days? They are to hold a GPS system, movement, heart rate monitor etc thing that goes in a pocket between the shoulder blades.

MINIBARCELONASAINT Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Can anyone make out who those quotes are by at the bottom? It reads "Nicola." A third one says "Remember, Southampton Football Club loves you" or something along those lines. Also from "Nicola."
Saint_clark Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 It reads "Nicola." A third one says "Remember, Southampton Football Club loves you" or something along those lines. Also from "Nicola." Leave it out That's a joke, surely?

hypochondriac Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 I was in Barcelona in the summer and visited the Olympic Stadium and the Nou Camp. Lovely place and I bet they are having a cracking time.
Saint_clark Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 Leave it out That's a joke, surely? Actually, after reading the second (extremely threatening) quote, sounds about right.
hypochondriac Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 That doesn't ACTUALLY say Nicola does it?
Saint_clark Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 That doesn't ACTUALLY say Nicola does it? It certainly looks like it, and as I said above the second one sounds like something he'd say
hypochondriac Posted 24 January, 2013 Posted 24 January, 2013 It certainly looks like it, and as I said above the second one sounds like something he'd say It's not very often I am lost for words, but if that does say Nicola... There aren't enough facepalms in the world...
