Charlie Green spoke with representatives of Juventus the other day at the European Club Association conference in Qatar and has quite generously offered them the chance to train at the best training facility in Scotland, Murray Park, for free. A lovely offer if I do say so myself.
A good honest club training on the ground of another equally good honest club. It's also nice to see that it isn't all about money these days with Charlie's lovely gesture.
brothers in arms.........Juve know what it's like to be wrongly treated at the hands of the authorities
Juventus have denied Sevco claims that they will train at the state-of-the-art but soon to be renamed Murray Park ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League clash with Celtic. The denial comes after a story appeared on the Sevco website claiming that the Italian side would use Murray Park on Monday and Tuesday to prepare for meeting the SPL champions.Responding to the latest in a series of spectacular moonbeams a Juve spokesman said: “We have not decided the location of our training sessions in Glasgow yet. “Some options have been considered from the technical staff, but nothing is confirmed.” The story originated from Dubai where in amongst the usual stories about the size and wealth of the Third Division side Green told fans that Juventus had asked him if they could use the world renowned Murray Park Academy of Excellence. Under the headline of ‘Ges to host Juventus’ the Ibrox website stated: “Rangers have agreed to provide training facilities for Italian giants Juventus when they visit Glasgow next week. “The Turin team will play Celtic in the first leg of their round of 16 Champions League tie at Parkhead on Tuesday night. “And after they arrive in the country, they will prepare for the game at Murray Park on Monday morning then return on Tuesday morning. “Gers chief executive Charles Green and head of football administration Andrew Dickson met Bianconeri counterparts at the European Clubs Association conference in Qatar last week. “While they were in Doha they agreed to let the Serie A side, currently top of their league by three points from Napoli, work at Auchenhowie.” The denial from Juventus is the latest in a long list of claims that Green has failed to deliver on. After announcing that the club would have £30m in the bank by the end of July he announced that three billionaires were set to invest in the club.Following talks with half a dozen players at Euro 2012 the club swooped for David Templeton on transfer deadline day. During a trip to North Anerica Green told supporters of a planned commercial link up with Real Madrid and kit deal with adidas which also failed to materialise investors were. Recent claims about increasing the capacity to cope with Champions League demand and re-naming the stadium have yet to be backed up and are likely to go the same way as the Juventus/Dallas Cowboys/adidas stories. Strong rumours going round that Celtic have offered Pollok Juniors the use of Barrowfield ahead of next years Ramsden cup qualifier against the Ibrox giants
