Twice a week (minimum) sat in a car for 10hrs (15hrs if there's a home game). Irrespective of the circumstances, that amount of travelling eventually takes its toll either on a personal level or to the point of affecting performance levels.e4sby wrote:But they are both only training twice a week instead of 5 times like they were....Radar wrote:It's a positive sign TW is adding competition and freshening things up.
