    Default Stadium Watch 1

    For all those poor people that dont live in God`s own Country , St Helens to you , Myself and

    Mrs Gruntfuttock


    went down and took some pictures


    taken straight across the link road



    the warehouses on the left are where the staium is going


    taken from the footbridge by the mining monument


    the mysterious "footbridge" site , still not sure about this


    looking towards the new building over the canal


    coming out onto the linkway


    and just for a bit of nostalgia , as I was taking the pictures what should show up but this



    hope you like them and I will hopefully show some more as the work progresses

    Some roving reporter you're turning out to be. Talk about fairweather.lol

    Good piccies though and it will be nice to see updates now and again.

    Perhaps we should keep this thread as a sticky so others can post piccies etc as things progress.

    Good Idea



    I was always taught to respect my elders,
    but it keeps getting harder to find one!


    I am a nobody, and nobody is perfect;
    therefore I am perfect

    Cool

    I was going to suggest 'Heaven' as in home of the Saints but it sounds too much like a gay nightclub.

    Saints' Stadium would do fine.

    Similar to Craven Park being New Craven Park, even though its not gonna be built on Knowsley Road, what about "New Knowsley Road"

    You can tell Im one of "em" who would have liked to redevelop the old ground, cant you !

    I think you might have quoted the wrong person Tobias lol
    KNOWSLEY ROAD 1890-2010. A part of history soon to be no more...the place that meant so much to so many people. Farewell old lady, forever in our hearts.
