I'm sad in one way but glad in another.
Sad in that we've had so many good games and results and others at the wrong end of the scoreline.
I'm also glad Saints have gone from there and I think they just got out of there in time. The cost of running it put the whole future of the club in doubt. Staying there was not an option.
Once the new place was approved then the future looked bright again for Saints, if not KR.
I would far rather lose KR than the Saints club and at one time a few years ago I feared that we might have lost both.

Like others have said, I'll miss the old place, the atmosphere in that away end was fantastic and i'd be surprised if it's the same at Widnes and then the new stadium. But they had to move before the place fell down around them, and it does look better on tv/people new to the sport if the best teams are playing out of good, modern stadiums.

It will be missed, but it was time.

One of my best memories was around 2003/4 when Carney got the ball in his own 10m line at the opposite end to us fans.. I rather optimistically shouted 'All the way Brian!!' .. Next minute, he's evaded many tackles, flying through the middle and running straight towards us - The Wigan end erupted and he scored a brilliant individual try.

Are you trying to take the credit then

Hopefully we can create an away end similar to the HJ. Wilderspool was fantastic on big game days and is even better at the HJ.

Hopefully we can do something along those lines!

I must admit when writing that I thought of the away end at the HJ, I do like that stadium! Although they aren't massive or state of the art, the new purpose built rugby league stadiums tick all the boxes in my opinion, you're close to the action and with standing and a low roof a good atmosphere can be created. Something which is almost impossible to recreate at larger modern grounds like the DW.

hh

remember CP in the 80's saints wigan lancs cup semi ( i think) it was packed even comin in over the top and that kop held a fair few, bloody hell it was rockin.im glad i was their,glad im an old get anyway onwards and upwards with modernity,newness, keeping up with the latest and all that borlorcks

Its sad to see but I'm really quite looking forward to my first trip to that new stadium!

They started fully destroying the old girl on Monday, and on the same day the first steels went up on the new place

Anyone know what our head to head stats are at KR

Sad to see it go, always loved going to KR on derby day, crammed into the terrace knowing going to the toilet would leave you abandoned alone for the rest of the game.

The atmosphere was electric in that Wigan end, the kind of atmosphere you just can't get at the DW Stadium.

My favourite away day also, the atmosphere is just so different to anything else when it's a Saints V Wigan derby.

From 75-0, to Carney's wonder tackle on Sullivan, to Pongia's chip and to finally Feka scoring our last ever try there, Knowsley Road will be sorely missed.
