We had a right good moan down at the pub.

They must recognise you Tony.

Shop is much better than it was at KR when it was a shambles at times with really odd opening hours and the place looking like a jumble sale. All the staff are very good except for the sourpuss already mentioned, but well hey 5/6 isn't bad!

My burgundy hoodie's colour ran making the white writing pink last week but they were happy to change it for another colour (grey).

Yep, I'd agree with that, I don't see how people can improve if they don;t get feedback, positive and negative.

However there is a genuine feeling that we should accept sub-standard service at Sports clubs quite often, and we see businesses get complained about day in day out on forums.

Sales are still on going, if the terracing sells out then I imagine that, I'll be sitting more towards the away end as the south stand still has a bit of seating there. I'd imagine the unallocated sections are following a similar pattern the allocated sections. ie West ends selling well, East ends still with room on the day, to turn up and pay. Was there a large turn out tonight for the test?

It felt like it, yes, but I'm not sure what kind of figures Saints were hoping for or what anyone would expect as I've never been to a health & safety test at a stadium before!

I tell you one thing though, I hope that cladding goes on and that it is good stuff because the West Stand and part of the North Stand concourses were soaked.

Season ticket sales stand at just under 9000 according to shop sales person and on official I talked to on thursday.

Saints didnt even want the event. The council insisted that last night took place. The club wanted to wait till 20th Jan. Yes people wanted to have a look round but the club wanted to showcase the facilities which wasnt an option last night. I was working last night and so couldnt go, however I did have a tour of the stadium on thursday and there is a lot left to be done both public and non public areas. Dont want to take anything away from the event or the stadium, which by the way is magnificent, but it seems to me to be another case of council wanting to take a leading role. This is probably the reason season tickets where "late" arriving in the post. The club just wasnt ready to hold the event.

Are they ever?

To be fair this time i think its a case of to many people putting their oars in.

There were a lot of people at the event. Some bits did look a little unfinished but what the heck.

We've been watching them building it for months and I couldn't give a damn. i just wanted to get in and get a look at it.

Dunno why some people still need to have a whinge.

I wasnt really whinging, just pointing out that the club didnt want to hold the event but the council did hence the fact it is unfinished/half closed and season tickets where late/didnt come in time.

I've still not had my season tickets. It's a good job I was unable to attend last night's event anyway. I'll have to try and phone them on Monday.

As I've yet to pick my season ticket up, what discounts at the shop do we get?

This is Saints we are talking about, you get zip.

In the past they gave offers on shirts but for the new season nothing is mentioned in the brochures re side benefits other than saving you a few bob on the match day prices
