| Quote: Saddened! "Awesome news. I can imagine the meeting.
"Boss man, the natives are crying out for a half back and a world class one at that".
"What? What's a half back?"
"Erm, I dunno boss man, it's quite important to the team they reckon?"
"You don't think they've spotted that we're waaaaaayyyyyyyy under the salary cap do you?"
"No boss man, they can't do maths, they're all from Parr and Thatto Heath, but they ain't happy"
"Is it that Saddened! again?"
"Yes boss man, he's the ring leader"
"Did he get the gold chair?"
"No boss man"
"What costs the least, a gold chair, one of these half back things or the cladding?"
"The cladding boss man"
"Order some cladding pronto, cheap as possible, buy it from B&Q on a Thursday and take Kel Coslett, you can use his pension book for a discount"'"
That is funny. |

Are the gaps at the North East & North West corners to allow wind pressure to disperse.

Oh, it'll disperse alright just as it disperses at the moment - right through the bones of the fans! |

Cracking to see the plans to clad the stadium improved upon with full cladding.
Nice to see the two corners stay open as this will let air onto the pitch which not only helps the grass to grow but on those rare warm summer days, makes it less stifling for the players.
I also note on the plans that these open corners are clad down the sides of the seating and terracing, so that fans are given shelter from any wind or rain blowing in through the gaps.
The stadium will look and feel somewhat different by the end of the season.
Acoustically it will change for fans mulling around the concourses, i suspect the cavernous north stand may echo somewhat when sealed in. The east and west concourses will probably feel somewhat claustrophobic and stuffy on a hot summers day. Conversely in the cold weather it will offer some respite from the external elements. Though i think many moaners will be disappointed that the cladding wont magically make a cold night, warm.
Aesthetically the stadium will look complete, and will start to have the look of a top quality stadium rather than a ground with one superb stand and three works in progress.
Just have to wonder what fans will moan about re the ground when its complete?

Apparently they were unable to clad the corners because of structural issues. |

| We could gold plate it and put cushions on all the seats and some people would still moan.  |

[quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that.
[/quote]
Another classic:
[quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban.
Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player.
Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666
0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match".
Therefore ZERO.[/quote]

Nice big comfy ones with heaters in them, after all our glorious stadium is always wet and cold so we will need them. |

Looks like the 021 cladding is also being tweaked, could be wrong. |
