The photo in last weeks M.E.N. was taken from in the cab of a HGV, apparently doing it every month now courtesy of Bill Mc(club photographer).

However are there not other beauty spots to take pics from?

"Man in Madrid" seemed to know were to get some decent pics from back in November on this site. So presume there is a road or footpath that passes near the site.


Chairmaker ours is a proper state of the art building site,well fenced off,floodlit and patrolled so any access unless authorized is not allowed.The footpaths go around the site but the fencing is a good height.

We did have one supporter,Barton Flyer I think who until not so long ago had access to a light plane from where he took some excellent aerial photographs which are posted somewhere on the site.

They appear to be starting to drill for the piling part of the construction at present.

Not asking you to break in. Thats committing an offence. However surely there are gates were vehicles enter, were photos can be taken, or higher bits of land were you can look over any fence?

This is what i do when taking pics of Saints site.

One of you could also be brave and ask the site manager if you could take some pics on behalf of the Scarlet Turkey.
At worst he will say NO, but he may say YES.

The nearest piece of land higher than the fence is probably Rivi' Pike...

First accept sadness. Realise that without losing 70% of the time, winning wouldn't be such a relief.

I heard a while back that the site security contractor had agreed to install a live webcam.

Spooky! I've actually just passed the stadium site, and took a couple more photos - I'll try and upload them later today if I get chance.

Loads of activity, piling rigs, excavators, etc. Just wish I had a better camera.

A few lessons need to be learned from Leigh's stadium management shambles yesterday...

Remember kids, a crap ground with a good customer experience beats a nice ground with a crap customer experience every day of the week.


Just to balance things up, in Bilko opened his Salford vs. Wigan match report with this:

First moan of the season - the lack of bars open at the away end of the ground! The excuse? "We didn't expect so many people!" Deary me - beer manager at the Willows - go to your room!
