The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.

Does anyone know if both ends of the bridge will have styles etc.?

I can just picture the local scroates razzing across the bridge on motor bikes and wrecking it.

.


My concern is the local chavs using the stadium open area as an "adventure playground". Especially at the back of the North Stand car park area, I assume there will be CCTV installed or maybe some 24 hour security. Tesco will probably have there own but I,m not sure of the clubs facility over this area.

there IS CCTV all around the stadium and I am sure Saints after building a £25 million pound stadium will employ some rent a cops to patrol it and make sure the local "characters" do not enjoy themselves at the clubs expense

As to day was a fine day, i decided to take some more piccies.

ill start as i ended my last update with the negative.

Another dodgy lightpost. This one has no hat

Image

I am also sad to report that the poop hawks have taken up residence and are using the stadium as a toilet.
The black cladding is covered in pigeon poo
Keiron seems to have escaped so far, however it wont be long i fear before he gets a white crown.

Here are my pics from THE KINGS CORNER

The main entrance showing the two lift shafts

The cafe bar, in the second pic you can see a set of double doors leading into the club shop.

Now onto the Bridge.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Are there any plans for the old kiln? It would make a superb pub and connect very well with the St. Helens glass making/bottle-making, industries/heritage.

No plans beyond making it safe and fencing it off, with the state of the place inside it would take a lot of money to make a pub out of it, just too many years of neglect , basically all there is left is the brickwork, vitrually nothing else,

this thread should gioive you an idea of how dialpedated it is and how much of it is underground its huge

Same thinking for me, decent weather this afternoon so got some decent lenses out. The Stadium in Autumn Coat so to speak, the security blokes were a bit bored walking around the place as they all came across chatting because I had the camera on a tripod.

Looks chuffing marvellous, and well done to the guys who have uploaded photos for the last million years (or so it seems ;) )
If I remember correctly, Warrington's east stand wasn't completely finished by the handover date, it was boarded off at the north corner for a while... Sure it will be cladded and finished soon.
Despite it ruining my day every time I went to Knowsley Road as a Wire fan, it was a great traditional RL ground with a great atmosphere, hopefully you can generate something similar at the new place.

So only you know you have the secret?

Re: Stadium Site pictures : Sun Oct 30, 2011 8:19 pm  
Parked up at Tesco this morning and had a good walk around the ground.You don't really appreciate the size and scale of the development until you get up close-well done to all those who made it happen.Looking at the nw and ne corners it's a good thing the cladding is being done because as has been said these areas are quite vulnerable to the weather.

One small observation about the new roundabout.When you leave Tesco,cars and other vehicles are flying round it at 30mph plus from the town side carriageway making it pretty dicey getting out.
