Yes but didn't experience a proper weight test as Biff not there. You may mock young Man but for a village it's not a bad set up. Just ask the hoards of AFC R&D that were in attendance.

It was an excellent set-up, with a large club-house that serves the community all week, a chance to watch the game from the decking area, as well as an additional playing area. There was reasonable parking provision too (although the person doing a 25 point manoeuvre to get away early might not agree).

Apologies if I came as mocking the set-up. As I have written and spoken many times before I passionately believe the, alongside improving the quality of coaching we give young players, improving the quality and number of facilities we have is essential to England improving as a football nation. I applaud organisations like Oakley Sports who have the foresight and drive to provide an excellent facility in what is a relatively small village.

I may have been mocking you though ☺
