Random question, but is it still going to have a terraced section for supporters who want to stand?

Yes 3500/4000

I've got another question the ground looks a bit odd with that big stand and 3 "small" ones what are the capacities of each stand.

Not sure but next time I see Adam Thomas I will ask him.

might be wrong, but i think that big stand is a hotel aswell, no doubt i will be corrected if i am

Can't wait for it to be built, wish it was us

Ive seen the computer gen pics that have been knocking about for a while now, but has anyone seen any actual stadium layout plans???

Is there going to be training facilities adjacent to the ground or just the retail & parking???

I notice that the big stand has its back to the west. Could its size be a sort of wind break. Because its very open there and bloody windy most of the time, nearly always from the west. Just A thought. Looks very nice though. Our new one at Leigh looks pretty bland compared to yours. But then we dont have sewage works on two sides. Dont forget your lavender hankies.

Yeah, but it's still in Leigh...

The design, as I understand it, is tiered that way to allow passing traffic an insight into goings on at the stadium and potential advertising.

That is what they said when the plans were first shown, the highest stand being furthest away from the M60, so that people traveling on the motorway over the Barton flyover could see into the stadium.

Will be closed by the time the stadium opens I believe, so neither will we.

Is it gonna be one main stand open like the Galpharm though?

does anyone now which contractor has been appointed to build the stadium ?

I was just going to ask that, or hasnt one been appointed as yet

it's ok we don't all get WIGAN council to build us a ground !

Sounds good to me, only good thing to come out of the place

still not answered the question of the contractor that building the stadium of yours.

It hasn't been announced.

That would say because they havent got one, yet, or if ever.

Or maybe, just maybe, that it's commercially confidential.

no we're not going to build a stadium. its all a big hoax. we thought we'd spend £35m on some landscape gardening next to the motorway...

... if it wasnt going to happen we wouldnt have already done the groundworks



what is it with these f**kin Leigh fans?

ignore their small-town mentality mate

The Project Managers are Drivers Jonas and they will be in the process of sorting out who does what on the stadium.

As was stated earlier these details are commercially sensitive and everything is on target for 2010.

The fans are to be consulted in the near future and further details will be made available as and when it is pertinent to do so.

Does anyone know exactly where the stadium will be? I keep wondering as i drive past - as I drive anti-clockwise on the M60 - over Barton Bridge (so the ski slope thingy is on my left). Is it near here ?

When you drive back the other way its down there!
