As long as it's a major company and not a 'Bill Howarth's Bathrooms and Plumbing' or 'Ass Recruitment' job it's all good.

When exactly is 'soon'? I'm dying to know the answer to this one.

For a company that for so long was St Helens based, thier support of Saints has been virtually none exisitent. I belive Lady Pilk used to be the President many years ago, yet still put nothing into the club from a finacial point of view

they were into rah- rah put alot of money into that.

Whatever it is there should be a stand or a statue or something named after EMc

I dread to think where we would be without him.

How about they immortalise the classic scene of Blobby and his mob of mutineers storming the Directors box at Knowsley Road and chanting obscenities at him?

Wasn't there an incident at Salford a while back that could make for an interesting statue of Eamon?!?

There was indeed.

I hope not. "The Travisty Stadium" doesn't have a good ring about it.

It will be the 'Pilkington - class in glass - Stadium.

pilkingtons made millions out of st.helens and never put a 10 bob note into the club, mind you they sponsered Queens tennis, Henley regata, and the polo chappies ,
if you want pilks involved make sure they put some serious " long over due cash" in. [tight gits.

I was told a name today but the player wasn't sure if it was they had bought a box or will hand a stand names after them.

Don't bother asking or asking for pm as I've give my word on this one so it's a WASTE of time asking.

It won't if we spell it wrong !!

"SACK THE BOARD, SACK THE BOARD, SACK THE BOARD!!"

Was this the ellery sacking protest?

Get Microsoft in and you could call it 'The Halo Stadium', it just works.

It was the Millward suspension protest was it not? I remember almost choking as I sat watching them storm the Directors box. Look quite menacing at first, I was imagining AK47s, suicide bombers, the lot.

I then recognised Blobby and it was funny because as they were chanting and pointing and shouting, others behind them were stood awkwardly like the shy kids who don't dance at school discos. Stood there messing with their sleeves or texting on their phones.



About 12 months after that they were leading pro-Eammon chants on the other side of the ground.

I think that is what the club is needing, a damn good protest. All this success is just no good for anyone, new ground, pah, we need something to untie behind, a cause. Forward, brothers!

Interesting all the comments about Pilkington! is their not a history buff around as I seem to remember them wanting to get involved way back in time when I was a kid and the then board all small business man wanted to keep hold of their toy, most of them spent more time at Moss Lane when socialising. Then Pilkington became involved if I remember right in the test for under ground heating, but again if memory serves me right there was concern that it may damage the pitch if installed? I think Lord and Lady Pilkington did a lot for the Town!

Remember that Pilkington is Japan owned, agree with many that if it is a small time sponsor then the names make a mockery, Knowsley Road was always that for me and I still can't remember what the recruitment company name was? names like Emirates sound okay!

I don't know If you are thinking of the guy that owned Suttons haulage.
They'd never let him on board,far to much money and business acumen.

The article says they want to cross the "T"s and dot the "I"s. That would leave Pilkingtons in the frame.



I'll go now.

Pilkingtons would fit well with most Saints fans.

Transparent and brittle.



I still think the Athens Stadium is a better fit though.

Well I see your back


No matter what the stadium is called it's all ours

I know L, you and BJ missed me so much.



Kefalonia is beautiful, but it was a little too hot for me this time (unusual for this time of year), 38 degrees in the day and 25 at night so I had to take in lots of cold fluid, especially last Sunday evening.

Should name it after most famous thing ever to come from St Helens - The Fat Johny Vegas Stadium. Like most other sl teams you could
attach an animal to the end of your name like warrington with wolves and leeds with rhinos and have 'The Sint Helins Munkeys'.
