Mrs G just went to Langtree Park and took these rather nice pictures

Reception is looking nice you can see the pictures they have on the walls there and also the TV`s which i think look very nice



KC`s statue



the Signage covers both sides of the entrance now



and I forgot to mention the entrances are lit up as well



very classy

Clearly you need to return to school as you cannot read. I was responding to the claim of PEDANTRY. Now, go look that word up if you don't understand its meaning.

Back to the topic ...

Since freezing rain is due in tomorrow and hail/snow is due in on Friday (oh so typical - Saints are playing!), I do hope the club thoroughly grit the concourses!

Does anybody have any idea if they will be putting more seating in the founders bar? I went in before the Widnes match and it is a large space and it could benefit from some seating, would be a really great place to drink before the game.

Errm, my post related directly to the topic. In that, I pointed out something out on one of the pictures on the 'Stadium Site pictures' thread.
If you want to prattle on about the weather, I suggest you start another thread.

(Cue the searching of the 200 odd pages for the picture of a puddle, that may ice over)!

If they put more seats in then it will restrict the numbers allowed into the bar.

Yeah I understand that but against Widnes there was large parts of the room empty. There was still a considerable amount of people in the bar so I'd imagine it could be possible without having to restrict numbers.

Have many of you guys been round the stadium yet for a sneak preview? Im really looking forwaed to my first visit which hopefully will be about 3rd or 4th home game, only trouble for me is O/Night stays is the Hilton hotel still there not far from the ground? as thats where i used to stay.

are you kidding? when i went in it was about 10 people deep at the bar, you couldnt breath let alone find a place to sit!

I did go into the stadium at about 6:45 so may have got busier!

yeah, it was rammed afterwards bud. I still say if its nice out they should put tables and chairs outside

The hotel is still there but I think it's a park inn now, very conveniently placed for the stadium.

Ah right fair enough, looks like we'll be standing then.

Some people have yes, either as a freebie or on one of the tours. I'm going to be taking a lookie see in the South Stand on Sunday night when I go to the Van Vollenhoven forum. I'm really looking forward to that (although I'm looking forward to tomorrow night even more!).


The hotel is still there only as has been mentioned it is now called the Park Inn. If you don't mind a short drive (or a long walk) there is also the Premier Inn on the Linkway as you come into the town (it is set back from the road on your right as you approach St Helens).

That won't be allowed due to liquor licensing.

All the best for your new ground's Super League debut. Looking forward to going on GF!

What I would like is for the west stand to have numbers or letters to mark each row on the stairs. This would make it easy to be able to meet friends. Being able to grid the stand.

Hey mate thank you so very much for that really appreciated many thanks.

Liverpool U19 will face Ajax U19 at Langtree Park.

They have progressed a little further today








and a close up bit of the white tiles surrounding the RedVee , I took very high resolution pictures but have to reduce them in size to get on Photobucket , if you out of town Saints let me know what you put on your brick i will blow up that part of the picture and post it for you to see what its like , Ive already spotted Bill Bates our revered historian

The lad running the job , is "blucky" a local lad who played for pilks recs for years , he is also a season ticket holder in the north stand , cracking lad have a chat with him , knows the game inside out and LOVES our new stadium , ask him about the WIgooners who have never been away.

.

Are they not going to cover the wall at all? Perspex or something? It's just so open to vandalism where it is.

Have they not cladded the sides in yet ? are they going to, if so when ?

There's no rush, it's summer now.

It's a sneaky little tactic by saints but it's typical of saints. When the next rain comes it will all blow up again.

I think saints just hope it will never rain when we are at home.
