Your right Starbug. I think it has something to do with changing rooms (for the community pitches) going into the stand behind where the posts will be.
First accept sadness. Realise that without losing 70% of the time, winning wouldn't be such a relief.

Don't get me wrong... I have an air of excitement about the new place... I hope it delivers us more success on the field... and I know we have to move to keep top flight RL, and of course I want that. But The Willows... It's home... It feels right. The Shed... I've stood in there for years... How can it be that after this season it'll be no more ? It's been a place where I can forget all my worries for 80 mins for so long.
Like I say... I get it why we have to move... but looking at the pics... It's just not a good trade in for me right now and it breaks my heart.
Said from the start that saints and yourselves should have some kind of terrace down the side to create the same feel even in a new home. I know it wouldn't be the same but it will keep all the die hards together. In your new ground some may go to the terrace at one end but others may stay on a seat down the side.
Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS

I said the same when they showed us the plans for the LSV , I desperately wanted standing down one side , rather than just the one end , as somebody commented yesterday , we now play in a ' Concrete Morgue '
Only having one side and one end open kills the atmosphere

SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!
