Quote: Alfie Langer No2 "I think the next stage of development after the 2 corners will be a 2nd tier of hospitality effectively in the roof of the north stand as this is where they will get the biggest returns from the investment.

Hopefully sooner rather than later, but I guess it depends on success on the field bringing more people into the stadium who want corporate facilities

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



Shame this wasn't already done for this season, the Saints game, Wigan cup game, cup semi-final and our league game later in the year could all get 15k.

Can't wait to see this finished. Will definantly stop the place looking like an IKEA stadium. It will be class.

Mummy duck is now thoroughly depressed. SHE was the one that was famous for losing five in a row........until the 2011 GF!!!!!:

From a fans point of view the next stage will be to fill in the NW corner (by the shop). The final corner would be the easiest to fill but that were all the media setup shop for the big games so they aint gonna like more mortal supporters pinching their butty wagon space.

For the SW corner they could have a cool looking media centre similar to Quins

Maybe they will and then they can move the TV from the gantry and make the south stand double decker

Think before they added a tier on they would just extend the terracing back above the concourse. Presumed it was designed to be easily expanded like this - fair enough it includes the expense of removing the roof but certianly easier than adding a tier. THe south stand would be brilliant if it went further back.

Monitoring outside for the people inside:



Pity they didn't make the south stand the same height as the west. It looks to be about 4 steps lower.

as for the north west corner-this would be ideal for away seated fans as we saw on Saturday, they were only allocated the end block of the north.

Will only be done if it is needed though.

if you look closely at the south stand it has the potential to be made bigger at the back already, there is a space between where the terraces end and the outside wall which would fit another 1,500 without having to remove and replace the roof. next time you go just look where the wall is on the outside compared to where the terraces end. it's plainly visable from where i stand in the west stand (i often wonder what is actually in that space currently, is it a secret passage a la harry potter?)

we just need to make sure that we can fill the stadium and not have a half empty stadium if we move it to 18,000 we dont still want a half empty stadium when we play quins or catalans

I'm confused. Do you mean the outside wall of the terrace or the outside wall of the entrance? From memory the outside of the terracing doesn't go back as far as the edge of the stand. This space could be used but the roof would have to be removed and replaced as all the supports are currently behind the terrace area.

i've not explained myself very well, sorry.

if you look at the very back of the stand, where the big screen is currently, there is a space between the wall that the big screen is on and the outside wall of the stadium. take into account how high the screen is, if you remove the inner wall you'd have enough space for about 3-4 more steps of terrace. (that makeseven less sense i'm sure!) it would make the south stand as deep as the west (nearly).

I think I know what you mean. But the supports for the roof are behind that wall so you would have to take them out and replace the roof (i just checked on google street view). Good job neither of us are architects isn't it?
