It really couldn't be about any other club.
"Some clubs do build spa facilities, do build leisure facilities. Mmmmm There's a reason why they're in League one with those facilities"
This. Is. A. Place. Of. Work.

It's amusing but, unless there's some sort of behind-the-scenes beef between Ashton and the Leicester hierarchy, it feels a bit unnecessary.
Especially when there are no guarantees in football that any club won't end up doing a Leicester, regardless of whether their training centre is a place of work. |  |

Sounded to me as though there is something going on that we don't know about, it was made especially weird by the fact that Burns and Chappers are there. | |

And doubly so given that Leicester were probably quite helpful when it came to the Burns transfer. Without a willing buyer, even at a token fee, we'd have been stuck with Wes and his new terms. | |

Don’t think there’s a lot of love between the clubs, especially on our side towards them, goes back a few years. |  |

Maybe Ashton overheard Srivaddhanaprabha, (Had to cut and paste that), saying something disparaging during the Milk Cup tie. | |

Did feel rather unnecessary and the sort of thing that can come back to bite you on the ass. Far better to take the high road as a CEO and not go the banter route. |  |

They were far from the easiest club to deal on transfers a few years back, I know that.
The Leicester training ground holiday camp thing was mentioned to me by an ex-player long before Mark Ashton made reference to it. |  | | |

Not just transfers either, leading up to/on match days as well.
I think as a fanbase we took a dislike to them as well really, direct competitor for a few years, weren’t able to beat them! | |

Think when David Nugent was there it was pretty much the peak of that wasn't it? [Post edited 8 Oct 14:32]

I was wondering who that was about, but this makes sense. Chappers and Wes will enjoy bombing in that pool then | | | |

It was said during a stadium tour that Leicester were the least considerate team and left the changing rooms in an absolute mess. Maybe says something of their culture and downfall at the time. | | | |

They cheated us out of a league title in 2023/24 with their Manchester City tribute act, while we played by the rules and finished what a point behind them. |  |
