what if Widnes get in superleague next season

why would they? Isnt the next franchise 2012?

Yes the question is will saints put coaches on from there ground to widnes for free?

It's not the fans fault and imo saints couldn't have handled this whole thing any worse

This is pretty embarrassing for saints but as expected there was no way it would be ready for next year they haven't even started it yet!

Hopefully they are in a financial position to absorb the financial loss of a chink of their income going away as you know for sure even if the attendances are the same they wont be getting all of that income

Could be a financial disaster for Saints this, their attendances will be down, they will have to pay rent and most likely won't get any income from food and drink on matchdays.

All those years when they've said 'it may be our shed, but at least we own it'

Chairman Eamonn McManus said: "[iKnowsley Road cannot function for another year but the Halton Stadium is only a couple of miles from St Helens[/i.

its 9.7 miles..............not a couple.

Every saints home game is effectively away

They will have to put on free buses or something!

We're not changing our name.
