Because the last game at KR will be next season, whatever the state of play with the new stadium. |

If we are continuing with the policy of youth development, moving away games to the start of the season - when juniors moving up for their rookie season are at their most vulnerable - is likely to put considerable strain on the kids' confidence. Especially if we start coughing up matches.

For a mid-/lower-table side yes. But if you're setting your sights on trophies I don't think there's any less pressure to perform away from home these days. Especially if you have a functioning academy which reminds any and every first teamer that their services aren't indispensable.
Rookies need as much help as can be provided and playing at home in front of vocal and supportive fans is a big help. |

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Am I correct in assuming that the developers have already agreed a purchase date and as such will become the new owners around October 2010? |

I understood that to be the case too. Originally we were scheduled to move in so that we began the 2011 season in the new stadium. However, with Taylor Wimpey having the wobbles, the whole thing has been delayed in getting started. It has been suggested that we will have to have a temporary home for the start of the 2011 season, which is inconvenient of course but I'm sure we will cope given what we will be moving into eventually! |

As long as that new ground is being built, we can play in a schoolyard for all I care.
Hey, we had a game in the local park in Perpignan  |

It would completely mess up the entire league and not just Saints campaign
'"
Not to mention the damage to our travelling fans pockets. Playing away every week would be demanding for us financially too ! |

This wasn't "exactly" the impression I got last night, however, there wasn't a real discussion about it, simply, a split season ticket could exist between KR and the new stadium for a season. |
