I'm sure EMc has something in mind with regards to one final game.
I have a feeling it might be Wigan?

You would have thought that if that was the case then Saints would have requested their last home Superleague game to be against Wigan before the the 2010 fixtures were compiled, just as Wigan did back in 1999.

There last game against cas not really a game that as sell out written on it.

Great news for the club and the sport. I actually despise going to KR now, matchdays have become a bit of a chore. The new stadium could reignite St. Helens RLFC.



Saints will have to market it as best they can. Should we finish in the top 4 we'll get a home game in the Play Offs which will almost guarantee to get a bumper crowd though.

Not necessarily, the play off games have been poorly attended, and more importantly for Saints the gate receipts from those games all go into the "pot" and not to Saints. I'm sure with a bit of forward planning they could have requested either Wigan or Warrington for their final Superleague game.

Should be against Warrington really. Be a close, entertaining game then.

Announcing the "farewell season" could help to boost your attendances a little bit. I think you will see an increase in away fans who will turn up because it will be their last chance to see a game at Knowsley Road. It might not bring thousands in but possibly a few hundred at each home game.

Kyle will have to be primed and practised in the last minute drop goal victory against Warrington trick, just to make us fans feel truly at home one last time.

I think if Saints fans, and perhaps away fans too, knew that the game would be the last at Knowlsey Road then it wouldn't matter that it was the playoffs, loads would turn up just for the event of it. If we wont it, all the better!

As for gate receipts, I'm quite sure by that time it won't matter as relative megga bucks will be on their way in the form of a stadium that can actually generate revenue instead of swallowing any dregs of income in one gulp.

new stadium, new team, new coach, new era

Yeah you'd better not invite Leeds eh!

who knows who the last game will be against we won't know until the play offs.

any further game will be a legends style game I would imagine more of a party than anything.

good news ,pleased to hear

What will happen if the stadium isn't finished before Feb 2011? Play a few more games at KR?
