No. KLD was next to Cockney Pete and Sir Thomas Trueman.

I don't know that they all do. However I am aware that SAFC have done so when it was unnecessary.

its not un nescessary..safc employ and consult wit sport scientists..experts..and those experts recomment athletes do this type of training..
the reason its nescessary is that pitches in england at this time of year are wet and or frozen...and those conditions are not conducive to training well..indeed training on such surfaces may increase the likelihood of injuries. they are not training "for" warm weather..they are training "in" warm weather....for the reason i outlined above.

The club have also said that they are there for a bit of team bonding as there are a lot of new faces of late and that it's a thank you for recent progress training in excellent facilities and staying in pleasant accommodation, plus some sun on their backs is beneficial too.
The odd strange bod on here would rather they were training down Crimdon Dene, doing shuttle runs carrying bags of coal on their backs in a full scale hoolie wind and staying in tents on the cliff top it would seem.

They've never done a proper day's graft!
They didn't need to go somewhere dodgy like Dubai or organise a friendly against even dodgier opponents.

whats dodgy about the opponents? is it because they are from saudi?
there are lots of warm weather places at this time of year sure..but going somewhere different is important as well
Er...

so all saudi people are dodgy?
the giovernment of saudi are dodgy but this club is owned by a private citizen
That's not how bin salman operates. You don't shit, fart or belch without his blessing. They represent him, whether they like it or not.
If they perform some kind of anti bin salman protest before kickoff, then fair enough.

so every saudi citizen represents the government a d is accountable for the actions of the government?
does the king of saudi arabai do what bin salman tells him?
I didn't say they were personally accountable, but they absolutely represent them.
If I was the king I'd be very wary of the psychopath I'd created.
