| Couldnt help but notice something unusual on this pic
Look to the south stand on the right and you can see something black that stretches from a vomitory to the executive boxes.
Could these be seats going in with black plastic covers on them, or am i getting overly excited about a pile of bin bags ?
We need a bigger picture from Saints to know for sure.

| I do hope we've got some big, bruising body guards and nasty dogs to protect the stadium and all it's lovely glass given the anarchy that seems to be being planned for tonight. Wouldn't want Rogues smashing our lovely windows.

| The style of the red cladding, particularly around the windows, gives the stand a retro 1970's design look IMO
Quite cool looking, as its unconventional.

| That red part on the main stand looks fantastic but the rest of the metal round the outside looks shocking. Hope that is being covered up.

What? What is wrong with the outside of the stadium as it is now? There is nothing remotely shocking about it. It's far more aesthetically pleasing than your ground or the HJ with the brickwork and bare metal on show there.

Read through this thread and you will find my views on your new stadium and how I think it is quality.
I make one comment about how part of it looks and you jump on me.
Typical Saddened. Choosing what he reads and ignoring the rest.
If you want me to be honest I will be. I am jealous, any Wigan saying they are not is lying. I would love our own stadium even if it had to be something like the HJ... however, Wigan along with Hull play in the best facilities in the league and we pay peanuts for it.

But once our stadium is online, you won't be playing in the best facilities in the league. We will.
And it'll belong to our club so they will be able to raise all the money they want for themselves and be boss over who uses their stadium and when. Your club never will.

The HJ has seating down 1 side and behind 1 end. Same with standing.

I don't think the saints new stadium is as good in terms of facilities as the DW or the KC.
They are both premier league standard stadiums with a larger capacity, all-seater, more . Without doubt your new stadium will be the best purpose built RL stadium though.
And, yes I am jealous it is your own. However, I am happy to be playing pea-nuts to play in the stadium we play in.
