If all that you are after is some updated plans of the new stadium then i'll ask next week, but in the grand scheme of things and the long road this project has been they aren't a priority really.

Both the directors and the fans know that if the chips are down I and other supporters bodies reps on here, and we are a strong group, side purely on the side of whats best for the club and not best for any specific individual or set of individuals.

Sadfish,

I accept what you say, but what may or not be important and seen as a priority to the club, well to fans who have been promised updates and announcements, I'm sorry but it is important! I know that from what many say and discuss with me, as SaintsFan said some are starting to think, "I'm starting to wonder whether the new stadium is actually going to happen"

I credit the good work supporter groups do, but I am cynical and even with my own club, if they are really taken seriously in the real scheme of things? I do hope I am wrong.

Very true Sadfish.

When the fans spoke with one voice under the SBS Banner the results were astounding.

We always knew though that that was the first couple of battles in a very long campaign and that the campaign at times would go very quiet as part of the process.

I'm sure that the pieces are now finally falling into place and that we are nearly there now and I for one cant wait to see the first sod cut on the new development. That really will hopefully be the start of the home straight when we really can see all of the plans come to fruition.

It's official, we're on the road in 2011. http://www.sthelensstar.co.uk/sport/479 ... d/?ref=rss Should give us advantage at the other end of the season in the run up to the playoffs when we have home games week after week in the new stadium. (looks for a smilie of someone praying).

BTW some posts pushing at the boundaries of credibility in this thread lately. We all know the club have consistently had to creep completion dates back with every anouncement and have released some unrealistic time lines. Either the club have been gullible in accepting what the developers have said then repeated it to us, or they have tried to paint a rosier picture than the real world.

Either way it's not good.

This is exciting:
"Saints also announced it will hold a series of fans forums over a week during February.

This will allow season ticket holders to view the venue’s layout and have the chance to reserve seats at the new stadium."

Good news for fans that the club has now committed to a press announcement that the move to the new ground will take place in season 2011, with only a few home games at the beginning of the season not at the new ground.

its nothing new to the fans on here or redvee , we reported in August that it would be during the middle of 2011.

In fact I even mentioned that early games would be played away from home at the time as it was announced at the shareholders meeting.

You need to catch up mate.
