We don't know what they have done and no matter how trivial I wouldn't want our brand new multi million pound stadium being defaced with anything remotely connected with them.

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

Sounds horrific. If they've run out of money to clad the outside (Not a massive expense) then how are they going to finish the internals? Or are they not going to bother with that as well? And what about the seats? Are we actually going to have seats?

Surely to god Tesco could fork out for the additional cladding? Tell them if they don't, we'll take theirs.


What happened you to trying to tell me how beautiful your new stadium looked :wink: :lol:

Re: Stadium Site pictures : Sat Aug 20, 2011 3:18 pm  
bored today so decided to look on Saints website how many tickets we have sold or are still reserved till end of renewal period.
Now its a pity that in the terraces and unreserved seats there isnt a countdown counter saying 200 spaces remaining, then 150 spaces remaining as more tickets get sold. As a result you dont know what the sales are like in these areas.

I have therefore been limited to looking at reserved seating. From this i have made the following approximate calculations.

The North stand reserved seating has a capacity of 2745, only 275 spaces remain onsold leaving currently a potential 2470 season ticket holder in blocks C through to G

The South stand reserved sections are showing 720 sales in total for blocks CDEGHI

This gives us 3190 potential ordinary season ticket holders so far in the North and South stand reserved seating.
This does not include West stand terrace season ticket holders, nor North stand unreserved seating or South stand family seating ticket holders. Nor for that matter the corporate season ticket holders.
I therefore think its not unreasonable to think that we are likely to have at present between 5000 and 6000 season ticket holders pledged for the new stadium.

you can see the internal walls and doorways through the glass windows

East stand showing the completed blockwork. Externally this stand is pretty much complete now, just need turnstyles and exit doors fitting.

The corner of the East and North stands showing completed blockwork and the gap were gates will be fitted.
Note the man moving the pitch, and the concreted pitch side concourse.

Part 2

Moving onto the North stand the blockwork here looks close to completion Only the North Western side of the stand has any scaffolding left up

Image

Image

Turnstyle entrance for the North Stand

Image

Peering into the North stand, you can see through a vomitory were they have concreted from the internal concourse to the pitch side concourse. There looks to be a slope downwards from the pitch side, to the back of the stand.

Image

Disabled toilet can also be seen through the scaffolding

Image


looking up to the north stand roof, Neon lighting tubes can be seen in line with the Vomitories and walkways to them. The green shimmer is the roof reflecting the grass.

Image

Moving onto the west stand we can see the completed blockwork. Note the unusual yellow reflection from the roof.

Image

This pitch shot of the man mowing gives an indication of whats causing the yellow reflection. In the background in front of the West Terrace you can see wooden molds for the concrete concourse. The reflected yellow will be the plastic groundsheet on which the concrete is poured

Image

Huge air con pipes were stacked up outside the Tesco main gate

Image

A shot of Tesco's and the path built for the new footbridge

Image

The view from the footpath to the piling rig

Image

Finally two more shots of the main south stand

Some people like to do nothing but moan. The same people slagging the new stadium off now are probably the same doubting Thomas's who were saying it would never get built.

My only real criticism of the stands other than the South stand is the lack of colour, when compared to that stand. However whats to stop the East and West stands getting a lick of paint put on them before stadium opening day, to brighten them up.

With the backs of the stands being open to the air, this will make for a beer garden like feel on a warm summers day, rather than being stuck inside a dark concrete box.

On cold and wet days, the high 4 meter wall, combined with the large overhang of the roofline, will keep the concourses dry and sheltered from the worst of the weather to a greater extent than that afforded the pitch side terracing.

the problem is that north east and west corners of the stadium have very little roof over-hang, cladding the north stand will cure the problem for those seated in the north east and west corners of that stand, the adjacent corners in the east and west stand wont be so lucky if the wind is blowing the wrong way.

apart from that the stadium is fantastic.

I wouldn't worry about the Wigan 'souvenirs', you can leave some in Wigan Athletics stadium to get them back.
