    The NWDA provided funds for ground remediation, that is they paid for the clean up of the site, St Helens Council paid for the road infrastructure and Tescos and Saints provided the rest i believe , I am not sure if they got any sort of Euro grant or other help

    At the end of the day though - it belongs to us and that's all that matters. Saints will own it - lock stock and barrell. Can't wait. been past Peasley cross end today and it's looking good with the end bit in place.

    Director loans as well. And I read somewhere that we sold Knowsley Road for more than £8 million. £11 million I think? The NWDA took up £4 million of the original £10 million that the Council were going to contribute for remediation and infrastructure works (including the footbridge) if I remember right. Tesco aren't contributing to the stadium build. The site is on a long lease.

    You're hoping for quite a lot, aren't you?

    Anyone else buzzing from watching our stadium take shape, cannot wait for that first game !!!
    Great photos as usual folks !
    Also heard that the capacity will be more the 20k mark rather than 18k I think Mr Colquit said it in the star or something??? Either that or my Pops is imagining stuff! Anyone else heard this?

    As an after thought why didn't somebody put a camera on the Gas tower and do a time lapse job from start to finish. Or has somebody secretly done that already. Nice picture off Px bridge Yorky.
    Also, mods can you please change my'At the peasley cross gates' to 'On the inside' because I am most days LOL

    No it will be perfectly adequate. We don't have to stage England v Australia plenty of other games to go around.

    The chair cannot be banned, the chair is un-banable. I want to know what sort of pipes are being laid at the new ground, and for that the chair needs to be in situ.

    the railway may be disused but there are loads of warning signs telling you not to go on.

    best bet is up the embankment near where the bridge is going.
