Loads of clubs do this - even Warrington have a "buy a brick" scheme.
Excellent idea too.

I would. I would presume they have somethign like this lined up already, seems natural these days to build a new gaff and get supporters to buy a brick / slab / pavement / bin .. etc etc.. The Brian Bevan wall at Wire's ground is a nice touch.
Saints could go one step further and have the names of al our captians over the years placed into a brick, make a walk way into the players entrance or such like, Twickenham have this sort of thing all around their permiter, names of yesteryear, and plenty room for players of the future.
Put me down for a brick and a bin !

There are no plans to do this at the new ground. The club thinks there is no market for it.
I am currently involved in the Armoury Square project and it does look fantastic (it's all done in granite). But unless the fans convince the club that there is a market it is not going to happen.

I forgot to say that because I have a vested interest I'd prefer someone to take it off me/run a petition/etc. (if they are interested).
To be honest, I'm not bothered how the club go about it. To me it seems a great way of raising some cash for the coffers. And I'd certainly buy a brick or whatever.
