I'm sure. Given that we have pulled Typhoo out of the bag for our shirt sponsor, I'm sure we have pulled other sponsors out of the bag as well, including for the stadium. Saints are regularly on free to air and Sky TV, and have been in semis and finals every season since 2006. Even though RL is a minority sport, Saints have a big presence within it and sponsors will like that. Once the new season is upon us, the new stadium will be totally finished and will get lots of media attention. I think sponsoring our stadium will be an excellent opportunity for a company of any size, local or national.

Wa wa wa waaaaaaaaa

I wondered if anyone would notice ...

Look at your avatar.

Eamon McManus has said that a deal has been done and it will be released in the next couple of weeks. So that pretty much clinched it for me.

Does anyone know if you will be able to gain access to TESCO from Peasley Cross Lane?

not in a car , no there are posts blocking it off , walking no problem

Just checking out the Salford fans site , they are obviously looking forward to moving in, as are we, but a user called Starbug, i dont think he is a Salford fan, not too sure , is saying



He is talking about the catering contract for the Salford Stadium and the council getting a chunkof cash for the next 5 years i think it was, but the last line makes me wonder, i dont see how the RLF can offer all those games to Salford when obviously the championships GF are held at the HJ and of course our new stadium is available for the same games,

I wouldn't take much notice of Starbug. He's a Leigh fan with a sizeable chip on his shoulder who spouts a lot of tosh on the whole.

The RFL is going to go to the best bid when it comes to holding anything. There is definitely going to be competition in this area though between us, Leigh, Warrington and Salford. Warrington will have the upper hand not least because they've been holding non league games for a while now and they also know how to market stuff, unlike Saints who are crap at marketing. So Saints are going to have to get their act together if they want to attract non-league matches to the new stadium.

I've been up since 4 waiting for the kit pictures to be released. Get a move on.

Released at approx 10am according to twitter

Seriously cannot believe Jamie Foster has managed to keep it under wraps until now. I thought we'd have seen pictures of him in the kit on Twitter moons ago.

I actually quite like it. Very similar to last season however.

I hope the away kit is good.

It's OK - a lot better than it could have been. As long as it's all white with a plain red vee (as it is), and we don't get any of the abominations that most other clubs seem to end up with most seasons these days, then I'm happy.

Just got the mail.

Hmmm what possessed them to cram the logo on top of the V and the red swoosh

Not well designed for me.

I don't see what else you can do with a red vee. It's so cliched now. Red band like in the Meninga days should be brought in for a few years.

we finally get a proper vee!... and then the sponsors spoil it with their colours. such a shame, lovely shirt otherwise.

Will not be buying it, it's too similar to this seasons.

What about the away kit? Any rumours on colours as yet? When is that announced?

Looks better in the flesh

it does look better in the flesh actually. I will personally wait for the away shirt before making a final decision. as saddened! suggests it is similar to last seasons in terms of the basic template i.e. the cut of the collar and shoulders. I would have liked to see a supporters jersey like hull fc have but as i'm beginning to sound like a doom and toppled i'll reiterate, nice looking shirt all things considered!

I like it, a lot


Might possibly have looked even better without the 3 swishes under 'Ty-Phoo' logo though.
Overall looks really, really good.

[i"I think the kits smart. And the away 1 is sweet aswell. Nice colour!" [/i

No it's not.

I love it. I think it looks right smart. I'm ordering mine asap.

Whats not? It's not too similar to last year?
