AROUND 300 Athletic fans watched the Athletic squad go through their paces at an open training session at Boundary Park.
The 90-minute session, presided over by management duo Paul Dickov and Gerry Taggart, featured set routines and a nine-a-side match.
Players signed autographs after the session was over and the free face painting proved particularly popular.
