Why will it be brill? It will mean all the emotion and fanfare for the previous two last ever games will be wasted.
And with it being Christmas they could make a song and dance about it and then have it cancelled. |

A number if factors still to be decided. The respective strengths of the teams that will feature and the access availability to KR - depending on how much the developer will have done on the site by then.

Farcical in the extreme.Saints come up with some stupid ideas and this is one of their most insane of all time.As far as I'm concerned I've said my goodbyes and that's the end of it.

Printed with kind permission from www.redvee.net 
Following dialogue between the Club and ourselves, we can confirm that Saints are indeed looking into the possibility of a final game at Knowsley Road, possibly against the Wigan Warriors, on Monday 27th December 2010.
This may take form in the shape of a potential festival at the ground, including past players, ceremonies etc and the match itself.
Due to matters outside of the Club's control, they will be unable to make a firm decision on this for several weeks.
The matter is complicated in that Taylor Wimpey take possession of the land at the front of the stadium in early November. This will have consequences for crowd access and safety. Any potential game will need signing off from all the authorities and Taylor Wimpey before the club can confirm whether or not it will go ahead.
--------
Then of course there is the weather. I'm not sure Saints head steward is that clued up on long distance weather forecasts.  |

Hopefully Taylor Wimpey don't sign off to say it can happen then!
That said I know if it does go ahead I will still be daft enough to go!

You said 10% of that. I am merely trying to present the reader with the full picture instead of your half useful bit of semi-information.

What a great send-off that will be. A dour game played infront of about 4000 people.

I have said my goodbyes in an emotional game for the past 25 years that the ground has been entertaining me. I don't want to say them again in a boxing day youth game which means nothing, I wouldn't be attending.
