Probably the worst new home I've ever seen in the assumed price range, it's grim, but if that's what they like then it's fine. Looks like a footballer's house, so perhaps that's what inspired them. Is this one in addition to the mansion in Retford, or have they moved out?

Tasteless. But they have earned the right to buy a tasteless (IMO of course) house if they wish.

Impressive IMO.

If we can hold behind close doors friendlies at a facility such as this which actually turns out to be the owners home.

Can only leave a good impression on other clubs such as Rangers.

just in case there's any confusion, they don't own the training ground.

I love that we have owners like this and not some boring raspberries. Better than some previous owners anyway and I don’t think they’re rubbing anyone’s nose in it.

So grateful and proud what the Radfords have done for our club. I dread to think where the club would be without them .

Mine isn't jealousy or anything like that, but I don't like it. I just don't like modern minimalist, open space houses. Give me the house near Retford any day. From the photos and videos I've seen I much prefer its old fashioned grandeur and a different room for each need. I'm most certainly turning into a hard of hearing, grumpy old fart but I don't want to hear pots and pans rattling and X boxes screeching when I'm trying to watch The Chase.

However, I don't have to live in it, (unless they need a fat, bald 56 year old live in pool 'boy' with angina, a bad back, knackered shoulder and a dodgy ankle), if it's to their taste then all power to them. I hope they are happy in both homes. Just not too happy in the new one that they want to stay there permanently. The happier they are the happier we will be that is for sure.

I`ve known John, since he lived in a Council flat on Oak Tree, nearly 30 years ago. He`s done well financially and great things for the Club. I`m a bit older than him and don`t feel the need for such extravagance. If I have money, I give it away. I don`t have a wife and three kids to support though!
