Training ground should stay in Cott, there’s more than enough space to develop it, just need to flatten that ****e prefab building.
I agree. Many, if not most on here would agree. But we don’t make the decisions. This is Hull Council, don’t forget.
Hopefully the land gets identified soon as it would be nice to get this moving asap
Unfortunately it will never happen because hull council are still living in the dark ages
Can't they just flatten the Lord Line building and slap it there?
Even if it was a viable location, the council would never allow it
I think Walton Street would be a poor place to have the training ground. Not sure it would be attractive to would be signings to be inner city. Much better to be out to the West Hull villages surely?
It won't be a city centre site, if it was me and my money, I'd be making a very kind offer to hull Ionians for their set up and potentially the farmer who owns the fields next to it to make it into a full blown training and academy set up
If they do want the training ground next to the stadium, we already have land included in the existing lease, that also has an indoor training facility on it (and it's bigger than the Cottingham site)...

That feels exactly the kind of place I was thinking of.
Might be talking out my rear on this one but I heard Ionians keep funding their club by selling off land that they own around their facilities to developers. I think they would be very happy with an offer for their full facility providing a replacement is guaranteed for them but I am not sure it is as big as it used to be. Fantastic location for a training ground though. Lovely area, private and far enough away from Hull.
They sold off part of the site in 1995, it's what funded the building of all the facilities that are on the site now, they've not sold anything since that I'm aware of.
