| I'm excited and nervous. I'm eagerly anticipating with a sense of dread... Fridays final visit to KR.
4174 days ago, I was sat on the steps upto the scaff, my first ever visit to KR. I'd always been a supporter, watching all televised games, but had never been taken (due to my family not being keen supporters). I remember cheering as Sullivan sprinted back to save a 40-20, with a dive Gordon Banks would be proud of. Watching Patch tear shreads out of Sheffield Eagles with his infamous "spinning into the tackle" technique, in a 39-30 win. Seeing the Saints legends such as Paul Newlove and Tommy Martyn, giving helping hands to Keiron Cunningham, Paul Wellens, Tony Stewart & Sean Long. Wondering which of our aforementioned youngsters would make it to stardom.
I suppose for me, its full circle. Its apt we finish with Huddersfield. The Huddersfield Giants of today, are the Sheffield Eagles of that day. I like to think I'm starting and finishing in the same place, I have conclusion. 17,500 on Friday please. Knowsley Road... She deserves it.
In 3 days time, it will be the last time I see my old friend. It will all be over. I've neglected you of late, but I still love you. It's been emotional. Farewell..!

| Watching your game on Sky lastnight it took me back to the last game at the old Craven Park,very emotional times. My mam still has one of the old wooden seats from the stand in her garden. Don't know what it'll be like with Knowsley Road but before they demolished Craven Park we were allowed to go in and get 'souvenirs'. Can imagine how you were all feeling at the end

I held it together last night, i wasn't as sad as i thought i'd be but will miss the old place very much.

Saints are charging fans for souvenirs; there is no being allowed to go in and get them!
