I wouldn't hold your breath. The club can't even find the grace to apologise to fans (not to mention the staff behind the bars) for enduring such awful conditions 'inside' the stadium much less speak about cladding.

What total and utter (moderated). Did Hull KR appologise to the Warrington fans? what about the North terrace at Leeds or even better Odslum. The concorse was a bit wet on the floor in the North Stand, but I would prefer that to what we had a KR - the lovely walk behind the Eddington to our open air facilities. Grow up and put a coat on.

None of those are brand new, state of the art facilities though. Apart from Bradford, Hull KR are in the process of redeveloping their stadium and Leeds are looking to do so also.

How many brand new stadiums have soaking concourses?

I don't see this concourse problem. Is it a health and safety risk or people just a bit scared of getting wet because the easy answer to the latter is to stand away from it.

I don't understand you.

Are you saying that concourses should naturally be soaking wet every time it rains and therefore it can't be a problem?
Or are you saying that we shouldn't complain that it is wet?

I'd have thought the easy answer would be to fix the problem not avoid the problem.

Three problems:
Firstly, it is unpleasant for fans to be wet outside, wet in the stands and wet when they are supposed to be 'inside' (as opposed to simply inside, like the South Stand fans and corporates are).
Secondly, it is unfair on and unpleasant for the staff behind the bar who were actually getting wet themselves last night (at least the West Stand bar staff were). They have so far had to endure freezing temperatures without any heating, wind and rain, yet they are bar staff, not fell walkers. They should not have to endure those conditions on what will probably be minimum wage (or any wage for a supposedly indoor job).
Thirdly, there is a potentially significant health and safety problem. If you cannot appreciate that smooth concrete with pools of standing water - literally pools - does not represent a health and safety risk then you are not really reflecting upon the situation deeply enough. The steps on the West Stand were also risky as the smooth concrete there was sopping wet and was slippy underfoot.

The stadium last night was a disgrace IMO.

In one of his early interviews after the stadium had been built McManus spoke about the extra expenditure on the pitch to make it rain worthy so that is possibly why nobody was surprised at its condition.


He also said we'd have the best stadium in super league, he lied.

He also said we'd have a team to grace out new stadium, he lied.

I'll never knock him for what he's done for saints but I'm not beginning to believe a word he says.
