I think that's the basis of the legal stuff going on to see who is liable?

I doubt there is any legal stuff going on. The club tried to cut corners, got burned by a harsh winter last year and are finding it hard finding the motivation to invest in completing the stadium.

We might not have cladding, but the door to the boardroom looks very nice indeed http://instagram.com/p/WKqrBplxju/

im not having that the stadium cant take the stresses of cladding, nearly all stadia are clad and they dont collapse. Nothing the club have said indicates the stadium cant take it, just it needs paying for

Bottom line is that they are cheesed off it wasn't included in the original design and they thought it was. The problem is that they want someone else to pay for it because they thought they already had paid for it. Whoever approved the plans on behalf of the club is responsible for this whole damn mess!!!!!!!

apart from the legal stuff re stabilty/planning & cost could it be clad up to a certain height then have a gap like they have at the K.C. stadium so the winds can blow thro without stressing the fabric of the stadium.B/hell there was a gap at the top of the scaff/pop side at KR & that was built of brick. it would still cost an arm & a leg so i suppose we will wait for the time being till the money becomes available.COYS.

According to the Chairman the money was available at the end of last season. The cladding was supposed to have been done in the off season, as stated by the club in a clearly meaningless statement at the end of last season.

Interesting to compare Hull Kr's issues re their new stand compared to Saints fans moans about lack of cladding http://www.thisishullandeastriding.co.u ... z2Lu263XtT Puts in perspective how things have turned out at Langtree park

We have the 'stadium can't hold the weight' argument to the cladding problem, would it be an idea to do a building wrap. This could be sponsored too, or even have a photo of the team or the fans or whatever they would want.
