Another boring,soulless,identikit stadium. The highlight of my travels next season will still be Castleford.

Where you stand drenched to the skin (if an away speccie), stand in everybody else's pee at half time and then queue for fifteen minutes for the last soggy ratburger from the van? Just like most other grounds in Yorkshire, it seems. |

Unless you have common sense and stand in the enclosed bits like other fans?
With regard to Saints' stadium, I don't like the open bits behind the stands. The noise generated will just drift out. |

Looks like an amazing place to watch rugby league, jealous that it doesn't belong to my club but proud that it's a Rugby League stadium owned by a Rugby League club.
Well done Sts

*What if there's a large crowd on and there's no room?
*What about at Odsal?
*Headingley?
*Hull KR?
*Wakey?
Yet come over to the correct side of the Pennines where ALL Superleague Clubs (plus Leigh) will provide first class covered seating/standing and facilities for the same (and in some cases cheaper) prices! |

I suppose Jamie Oliver will be on hand at the new stadium to cook 100% free range burgers......doubt it.
I suppose the bar will be serving Stella Artois in a tulip shaped glass rather than pyssy Carling in a plastic one.......doubt it.
My wife had to lather factor 30 on at Cas last year as we stood sunbathing on the open terrace.........oh I forgot,the sun never shines in Yorkshire.
You can keep all your new stadiums over the Pennines, the Champions play in a proper ground in Gods County. |

It's not finished yet. Cladding is to be completed. |

You're having a giraffe aren't you.......when was the last time Saints sold a ground out? How many did you and Wigan get for the semi at Warrington again ?
Believe me, 7000 sounds a lot better at somewhere like Cas than it will do in your half empty new stadium.

Only within the areas that haven't been condemned you mean.  |

Deary me such hostility , The Stadium serves beer brewed by a local Brewery you can get Ty-Phoo tea and if your missus wants to Sunbathe then you can in the landscaped grounds of Langtree Park |

Anyone arguing that any Rugby League ground in Yorkshire even comes close to Langtree Park, let alone beats it, has some serious issues.

Have you got an indoor toilet at home yet?  |

Wigan v Saints - Challenge Cup Semi 2011 (Warrington) - 12,713 (About 300 short of capacity).
7000 at Cas will NOT sound better than 11-12k in Saints new stadium (their average before they moved from Knowsley Road). |
