| Thoroughly enjoyed it and liked the stadium design, (obviously the game helps), but, some of the openness, as opposed to it being unfinished doesnt help contain the atmosphere.
Easy drive from M62, parked in Chalon Way multi storey only a pound and an easy walk to the ground. Noticed a few pubs that might be worth visiting next time to let the traffic 'go' after the game as we were on 12th floor.
If I was being really picky, the walk past Tesco and across THE bridge was a bit tight esp after match when larger numbers approached at the same time.

You get an attendance which is bigger than Warrington's capacity?

| It's a totally different experience in the piddling rain. Trust me, soaked was an understatement at the England game when I was queuing for ale. So overall, first experience has ruined my opinion of it. The grounds turd and unfinished. Although last night was better due to the dry conditions, bigger attendance and better atmosphere.
Still no HJ though, regardless of how many it holds.

Once the cladding is up the atmosphere should improve. Beyond that, why would you say the HJ is better? The facilities are better at Saints ground, the view of the pitch is excellent from anywhere in the ground as well.

Same for me. Really enjoyed the night, good atmosphere and a quality controlled performance from us.

| It's miles better than the HJ.
I prefer the HJ to the all seater KCs, DWs and Galpharms of this world, but Langtree Park is a big improvement.

The cladding makes a world of difference. Just feels unfinished and soulless. Probably agree to disagree here but I'm glad to be at the HJ and wouldn't swap anytime soon.

| Hated it when I went to the Exiles game, but it seemed ten times better last night. Maybe that was to do with the fact it was full and not ing it down. Plenty of decent pubs in the town centre, although I didn't go in I liked the bar in the stand, something we should look into, if we haven't got space to build one maybe stick a marquee up outside, would be a nice little earner for the club. Very impressed at how quick the service was inside the ground after hearing bad reviews from Saints fans, the 'beer only' queue was a great idea. The stewards were like the Gestapo at the Exiles game and ruined it for me, but there was none of that nonsense last night. Once the cladding is sorted out it will be a brilliant facility.

Unless you are behind the sticks on the first level, with Burly stewards in front of you (at one point 5 in number) we could not see the action on the left side. Why the Mounted police?

| Quote: Dropkick Murphy "Credit to Saints on the admission price for kids too. I had a ticket which I paid £18.50 for from Warrington and I understood that it would be £20 on the turnstile (which it was). As this is exactly the same pricing as our terraces I assumed it would be the same for kids, so when I took a ticketless 12 year old lad with me I thought I would have to pay the £14 it costs me to get him into the South Stand on a match day. I was therefore delighted to get to the turnstile and discover it was only a fiver! Warrington please take note!'"
How do you think i feel when i have to pay £14 for my six year old boy.Plus the cost of my ticket some sundays it cost me the best part of £50 for the both of us.Thats with food and drink

That's right, Saints don't do student tickets so they have "young adult" tickets which is people from 16-21 years old.

| Thought the stadium was great, sort out the cladding and can't be much to complain about. Nice Bridge aswell however its downhill from there for me. Got dropped in the town centre and the nicest shop was the McDonalds or the massive 99p store.

| Whether they do student tickets or not shouldn't affect the price for a child though, so absolute credit to Saints for that price. "Young adult" is better than student anyway. I was a student between the ages of 16 and 21, but lots of school leavers are on low waged jobs, apprenticeships, etc (assuming they are lucky enough to have anything at all in the current economic climate) which means they aren't students but aren't rolling in dough either.
Warrington should charge less for kids (circumstances dictate season tickets aren't suitable for everyone before someone says that) so well done to Saints.
