    Think I'd have preferred Pilkington Stadium. Glassworks sounds like.....well a glassworks.

    We've bottled it on a few occasions so U.G.B. would have been suitable.

    ...But it still sounds better than 'Perspex-works'.

    Now look what you've done, gone and spoiled all our fun just coz DW stadium can't have any perspex cladding!
    I know you're secretly jealous of our transformer stadium, designed so that it's appearance never stays the boring same. The apparent constructional defects were cunningly engineered to create a talking point amongst the world's sporting media, thus keeping Langtree Park at the forefront of British sporting venue achievments. Not many people outside the town know this, however we are more than happy to share the Club's secret with a privaledged few readers like yourself.

    Thank you for for that. I am truly honoured and humbled, and may Father Christmas (he does exist doesn't he?) bring you many sheets of perspex.

    These plans were approved last November. so will not hold my breathe just yet. Just hope they are implemented, preferably before the beginning of the new season. So, why all the talk about perspex????

    I really am surprised I ain't seen anyone one site, pass the place every day, at least twice a day, not seen a peep... Ohhh no, wait a minute, this is saints, they lie!

    Can't see ewt gettin done this year either the way this is goin, I am just waiting for the latest wave of bullshlt to be peddled from the boardroom of LP as to the 'delay' and why it any be 'started'

    The whole subject is getting beyond old now... I just wish saints would be honest and transparent with us for once in our lifetimes
