Does anyone know when the squad will get back to training?? Looks like the season could be starting in under 2 months time.
Also does anyone know where we will be training?? Will it still be at the lawns? As I know they are hoping the training ground pitch will be really for the start of the season in September. But obviously, that is no good for pre season training.

No clubs will return to training/take players off furlough until a start date for next season is finally con firmed, apparently that decision as now been put back until the 24 July. Although not sure why it matters to us when they return anyway as I assume most L1 clubs will return on the same date.

Peterborough have already took their coaching staff of furlough and are testing them and some players who have been training. They are mainly youth player's though, so they can get a feel for senior football and they are getting to work with the first team staff. Think it's a good idea, although it would cost us, it will help the younger players develope and garner could get a good look at them. Don't think he's been furloughed anyway as he??

But I think you are right that there is no point Rovers deciding when until we know for sure when the season is going to start. With the two alternative start dates on the table, maybe the club has some tentative dates for training to resume so at least the players know when they might be back in.

With the two alternative start dates on the table, maybe the club has some tentative dates for training to resume so at least the players know when they might be back in. The latest of the 2 dates, is less than 2 months away. So we can't wait for too much longer IMO. Heard from quite a few clubs now, that the likely start date for the league will be 12th September. With the league cup starting on 5th. That is under 8 weeks away and the player's have had longer off than normal. I would be looking at starting next week, or the week after. If they are not scrapping the football trophy. Maybe the group stages could be used as the pre season games for clubs.

Agree that friendlies will be difficult to arrange so the trophy group stages would be ideal to be held pre season.
Also as potential attendances are likely to be small, it would be a good test for how crowds would react for a proper game.

Once the EFL have decided on a start date everything else will fit in quickly. But I suspect that the EFL are waiting for the government to make some announcement about crowds and sporting events first. Once those big decisions are made I would expect other decisions to be made very quickly. UTG!

Once we take player off Furloughed I doubt we can put them back on it, once we get a decision on the 24th we can then decide, like it seems most L1 clubs are happy to do. Not sure anybody wants to make the football trophy even more micky mouse by making it pre season friendlies, plus the rules around U23 would be impossible to impose in friendlies and I doubt many fans want to attend home games before the season officially starts in Sept.

Thought they changed the furlough rules?? You can now let people work part time, even if it's for a few hours for one week etc. To encourage getting people back to work, even if it's for a bit. I have friends who are going to work now, for a few hours a week, but are still furloughed. So it should be possible to get player's in for a bit. Plus the furlough only pays for a bit towards the wages. So probably worth getting them back anyway. Could cost us more in the long run, if we try and rush the pre season and player's get injured.

Even if we wait for the meeting, we still have to plan now. We still need somewhere to train and the player's need a premilary date. As we would only have 6 weeks to the first game from then, if they use the dates that clubs have been saying.

I heard a whisper that training may resume towards the end of next week.

Do you really think BG's sat at home obvious to the fact he needs to plan when we return to training and also where we train 'til the new training ground can be used?

My son started training again two weeks ago, no tackling and no touching the ball with hands, mainly fitness stuff and staying two metres apart.

Yeah, a friend of mine coaches a junior team and they did the same. Good that things are slowly getting back to some sort of 'normality' and it will be good for people's health, both physically and mentally.

I asked if anyone knew when we were starting again, it was not a dig at the club. I wondered if anyone new where and when we are starting training. IMO we should be starting within the next few weeks. Obviously nobody has heard anything yet.

In Leicester, my two were able to start training as far back as 6 weeks ago ... probably an example of why we’re back in lockdown here 🙁

The question also is where they will be training? I assume the training ground at Almondsbury won't be ready to move into until at least September/November when the pitches are ready and the facilities are up and running. Perhaps the club might use Cribbs for a little bit longer or use leisure centres and local 3g pitches for the duration of pre season?

Could even have a 5 a side against Trapnell's donkeys.
