| Not a bad idea if I'm honest. Most players hate pre-season training in the rain/mud etc so it makes sense to have a nice week abroad. It won't be that nice though - Wane is a tough taskmaster and he won't be treating it as a holiday

Makes no odds where they train.
They could have a few days on the lash and get a beasting for the rest of the week for all i care. Team bonding is just as important as doing grid sprints.
There will be plenty of time to run them ragged during the Christmas period and beyond.
Its only the jealous types that get there knickers in a twist because these professional sportsman get to go abroad. As we all know because you buy a season ticket you get to control every aspect of their lives.

Do you live in the North West?

If it makes no odds where they train then they don't need to go to Florida then do they?

| having a season ticket or supporting your club does not give the the right to control their lives,but it should give you the right to know which direction the club is going in.ie not naming the coach sooner when it was the worst kept secret in rl,oh have we made any signings yet.

Not very loyal are you loyalwiganer?
If it was the worst kept secret in RL, then you would have known that Wane was coach, so why did it matter when it was announced? If signings can't be announced for one reason or another then they can't be announced, should Lenegan announce "I've signed A.Player, or at least I think I have, I hope I have, I'll get back to you on that one"?!

| I dont see what the issue is here? Surely training in blistering heat is much harder than the cold? Teams often do high altitude training in other sports for pre season etc.
There is facilities in Florida designed for high quality athletes with training programmes etc. The sports science in the USA is also the best around so maybe they have got something decent lined up over there? From what ive heard about Wane and Bitcon the lads will be dreading it even if they go to disneyland
The way some people on here are going on anybody would think they were sat in the pub flicking through the brochures then thought "ooh Florida looks nice lets go there"

| Mid-December seems a bit early to me. One of the main benefits of warm weather training is it allows you to do ball work at a time not conductive to it in England.
Mid-December is too early in pre-season for ball work.

Two meatheads fighting in a cage to try and prove who's the 'aaardest.
Legalised and glorified thuggery, basically, and a f*cking disgrace.
Just my opinion, like. A lot of people like UFC, which to be fair, probably says a lot about them.

I don't watch it, it's a it too much for me but i've no issue with 2 consenting adults wanting to fight, in fact i'd bring it in to town centres at the weekend, the police catch 2 people fighting throw them in a cage instead of wasting time arresting them, have a ref and a medic and free up police time money and effort on them
