  • McLaren given the green light to QPR's £25 million training complex (Not Steve)

    McLaren Construction is believed to have won the race to build a new £25m training ground for Queens Park Rangers.

    The Enquirer understands that McLaren was given the good news this week.

    The club is hoping to start work shortly but is facing a legal challenge from local residents over the plans.

    The Elite Training Facility and Community Sports Complex will be built on the Warren Farm site in Southall and is due to be ready ahead of the 2015/16 season.

    The training centre will provide: grass pitches for the first team and academy, an indoor 3G pitch, an outdoor 3G artificial pitch, extensive gym, sports science and rehabilitation areas, Academy classrooms, a large number of changing rooms, media, catering and grounds maintenance facilities.

    Populous is architect for the scheme.

    McLaren’s win comes after its successful delivery of Tottenham Hotspur’s new £45m training ground in Enfield.

    The contractor is also working on the first phase of Spurs’ stadium redevelopment plans.

    McLaren declined to comment.

    Work scheduled to start later this year as McLaren wins another football match

          You should never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

                    It's not really a training complex. It's either an Air Asia call centre or a music venue
                    Supporting QPR isn't just about a football team. It's about roots and identity.

                      Have you every considered that part of the problem might be our present training facilities which are not adequate. A new complex is essential. Hopefully it will persuaded better motivated players to come to the Club.

                      How would you like to go for an IT position and be given a 50 year old IBM typewriter to work with.

                        Don't take everything so face value. Plenty on here like to add banter.
                        If you keep the serious face on, then you'll find yourself picking up dozen's of posts on many threads.
                        I played sunday league football today.

                        Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.

                        I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.

                        We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!

                          Paid for with the sponsorship from Car Giant and Sellotape, no doubt.
