    Took my boy(he's now 22) up to Parkhead to see the players coming out after training when he saw Packie Bonner,he ran towards him to get his autograph when at the last minute he tripped but luckily the big man caught him before he fell......................then he bounced him twice before booting down the length of the carpark. :icon_mrgreen:

    You can try mate but im sure there is security at the entrance to Lennoxtown but you might be able to get a view from somewhere .

    They used to hold open days at celtic park during the school holidays(Easter time ) where you could watch the team train. Not sure if they do it now and charged you a small fee for entrance.

    Has anyone ever been up? Only a couple of miles away from me. There are paths all through Lennox forest dunno if they go right up to it though. Can imagine it's like Area 51 up there, might go up on a bike to try and escape the sniper fire

    Ive been up to Lennoxtown quite a few times to watch training. You pass the Co-Op on main street which is on ur right hand side and turn left go past community centre building then onto a dirt track, take next right and pass a couple farms plus go over speedbumps, straight road up past a sign saying Private Road then u cant miss it, usually i sit on the hill next to the White House that overlooks the car park

    I don't think you can. I was working up in the Campsies last year and took a short drive to see if we could watch them train but there's no entrance to fans.

    I saw Boruc putting petrol in his jeep at a near garage right enough :icon_mrgreen:

    I think its fantastic that dads are spending time with their son's.

    My two sons are 37 and 31 and we still spend a whole lot of time together and that did'nt start yesterday.
    It can take a second to become a father, but it takes more than balls to be a dad.
    Keep up the good work all you young dads for you and your children will reap the benifits, trust me.
    Just my opinion.

    Ive been a few times, you can get up to the outside but they wont let you in and on the way up the wee road theres like a gate thing it's always opened though but it says you are now tresspassing and all that. You can't really watch them training either as they are always training over the back and you would need to get out the car and walk up the wee grass slopes bit and stand outside the fence, somebody would probably tell you to go away. Once when I was working near it we went and were sitting up the hill bit outside the guys house in the car, we couldn't see them training but we could see them arriving and guys from it kept coming out looking up at us and waving as if they were telling us to move but we sat for about an hour lol

    You could stand outside the gates though and get autographs and photos off the players or whatever. Unless your told to go away.

    Would love to see Lennoxtown because as a training facility it looks second to none.
