Just for info I was one of a few who suggested renaming the Training Ground. I. Any links to colonial aren’t exactly top of the pops these days 2. But mainly, the land is named after the site which was part of the Victorian (or thereabouts) Hortham Colony Hospital for Idiots. Felt that our training ground being forever associated with the word idiot was just going to give hours of endless fun to them down the road....... I always wondered where The Colony name originated. Never realised it was from a mental hospital! Definitely think it's best we stick away from that. Of the names put forward, I like The Quarters, quite clever that. Maybe it could be ‘The quarters but solid blue on the back.’

With its position next to the motorway it may be the most seen training ground there is. Again, no research done but it could be worth a lot to the right national company. UTG! Chelsea FC Cobham Training Ground Arsenal FC London Colney Training Ground Man Utd Aon Training Complex Man City Etihad Campus I rest my case at that Cobham and London Colney are geographic locations not sponsors.

I have a vague recollection of Phil Kite saying that Baywatch was what the City players called him during his time there. Because of his resemblance to a typical life guard, rather than Pamela Anderson!
