Love that we're upgrading our training facilities but I just can't get over how much it looks like a distribution centre for a big company.

Looks better close up to be honest and the cladding has been done in consultation with such as National Trust and conservation groups and is deemed the best colour. At the end of the day it's an indoor 3G pitch and is needed.

The boxy bit with the 3G pitch inside it looks a bit industrial I suppose, but the stone work under and around the balcony area looks pretty high quality to me. I think its clear to see that the colour will blend in eventually and with a screen of trees, the whole thing will pretty much disappear.

I think it will be fine once complete - the cladding on the 3G pitch building is wood I think.
