Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg |

Saints have only taken the posts from Knowsley Road. They left the roof problems behind.
Actually, if the cladding wasn't perforated then the wind resistence could bring the whole structure down, not just blow the roof off. |

[b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag.
[b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg |

The Autumn Wind is a pirate
Blustering in from sea,
With a rollocking song, he sweeps along,
Swaggering boisterously.
His face is weather beaten.
He wears a hooded sash,
With a silver hat about his head,
And a bristling black mustache.
He growls as he storms the country,
A villain big and bold.
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake,
As he robs them of their gold.
The Autumn Wind is a raider,
Pillaging just for fun.
He'll knock you 'round and upside down,
And laugh when he's conquered and won.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47600.jpg |

When you guys left Wilderspool didn't your average go up.
When we was playing at KR our average was around 11K,I would imagine it will go higher,don't you. |

There is a difference between the two.
When we were at Wilderspool we were poop and nearly got relegated one season and in another season there was talk of the Wire disappearing altogether becuase of bad debt and merging with Widnes.
Whereas when you were at KR you were winning trophies year on year which would have pulled the maximum crowds each week.
I do think your attendances will improve but not by the marked numbers that ours did.
You do have a fantastic looking stadium now, which is a credit to your club and RL. |

Langtree is the name of the principle developer of the stadium & I guess this is what its refering to. Though there is an erea of Wigan that shares the name |

According to this article Season ticket sales are well up on the average KR numbers
apparently we had about 5000 season ticket holders , we are currently on 8000 , and selling more , so bodes well for the attendances

Went past the other day, the ground looks brilliant.
Couple of away trips to look forward to next year more so than usual in Saints & Salford. Throw in the novelty of having Widnes back and 2012 should be good.
