I often disagree with you but you are right about this.
I also feel that West side is by far the worst part of the ground and as far as I know there are no plans to do anything for sometime if ever.
Its great that we are having a fantastic new stand but anyone sitting in it ,that West side will be right infront of them. It will still give the impression that a major part of the ground is not up to standard.

Finally that part of the ground has terracing too shallow and impairs viewing. You have to walk through the filthy surrounding streets to get access. Although the general state of the grounds surround is beyond the clubs influence. Nevertheless we insist the away supporters are subject to such a negative experience there is little wonder we get such negative comments.

The state of the surrounding streets is out of the clubs control. We can't be blamed for that.

You’ve been watching a very old comedy sketch about 4 Yorkshire men.

Snowie,
I am talking about those few portacabins on concrete blocks . They would cost very little to get rid of. If they are left there when the new stand arrives the will stand out even more. Its like building a brand new house and plonking an home made greenhouse of discarded window frames and old doors in the back garden.

I'm with you now, we did look into turning the top section into a bar but the roof had serious issues and the toilet facilities was yuk

How quickly some fans forget … Knowsley Road was a disgrace by the end, and it's sad that now we are finally upgrading the ground a Clubs official social
media account decide to highlight the worse parts of our ground.
RL Family? My backside.

I remember at the birth of Super League a broadsheet newspaper (poss Telegraph) had a picture of Fev’s ground which just had to include the row of terraced houses, wash lines included.
The saints pic is very similar.
