Re: County v Hungerford
16For Hungerford those two games are local Derby's, so I guess they wanted to cash in on those two, in preference to County, rather than have a run of too many home games.
Re: County v Hungerford
17So it makes sense for a match with a different focus, away from the scrutiny of fans. Perhaps they didn't expect their supporters to turn up three times so they stuck with the two more local ones.
Re: County v Hungerford
19If Hungerford had booked Dragon Park as a training venue it might not have cost us anything. It looks like a win-win. We need to get our heads round friendlies being a different thing now we are no longer non-league.
Re: County v Hungerford
20Why would Hungerford book dragon Park for training venue this is a non league side ! It would have cost us like spytty cost us to use their facilities. Incase you have not noticed we don't actually own anything. Everything training games cost us .so my point once again is why don't we play them away like last season like undy like Weston-super-Mare like torquay like FGR .playing behind close doors against a team 6 tiers below us costing us money 
. Is crazy .just getting over covid recession is coming no cup run last season if its wasn't for sky and the Premiership giving us over 300k last season we would have run at a loss . We have been very lucky last 3 seasons with cup tv play offs ,earning millions this money won't last for ever so let's no waste it .

21Don't understand your concern if say we had a inter squad friendly/ training session we'd have to pay for the facility and it's used by us for training anywayowlsabout wrote: July 14th, 2022, 7:26 am Why would Hungerford book dragon Park for training venue this is a non league side !

Re: County v Hungerford
22When you own things, it still costs lots of money to maintain them, the facilities are not free. The standard of the facilities at Dragon Park, would be expensive to maintain, and probably beyond what would be sensible as a second division club. Renting if and when required, is a much better option IMO.
Why choose Hungerford? Perhaps they have coaching staff doing badges at Dragon Park, or they have a style that suits us, who knows?
This is interesting reading.......

Re: County v Hungerford
23i have no idea if Hungerford did, but plenty of non-league clubs have a brief training camp away from home. We did it numerous times.
