Playford Road Changes to Cost £400,000? - Ipswich Town News

Manager Roy Keane's planned changes to the Town's Playford Road Training Centre, will cost the club £400,000, according to a tabloid report this morning.

Keane recently said he wanted an office at Playford Road and wanted to reduce the number of people coming and going, while TWTD understands that some changes had already been proposed prior to the switch of manager in late April.

Amongst the changes reported this morning, in addition to Keane's new office, is a swipecard entry system.

Former boss Jim Magilton previously had an office at Playford Road, but at the time of the management change was temporarily without one after a reorganisation.
