Welcome andi enjoy posting here. I know a few people who travel from Stoke through to coventry areas but not anyone as far east as yourself.


enjoy the game, first wigan game and please dont be put off by what you see at Knowsley Road (ie, outside toilets) the Da Warriors stadium is much prettier.

enjoy

Celt the Wigan fans stand behind the posts at the opposite end to the Saints clubhouse / main enterance. The best place to park is a nearby school. If Ancient / Loyal sees this he can tell you the name of the school. Street parking is fairly abundant but Saints have very little official parking.

quite true lol. De La Salle school, if you come off the M6 at Haydock (i presume you will) get on the East Lancs to St Helens, go all the way until you get to a Tesco petrol station/metro then simply follow signs to the ground... There you'll see a teacher (possibly) waving traffic in for £2... very easy (WA10 4QH if you have sat nav)

St Helens ticket hours, i presume the office will be open throughout saturday but get there at least 2 hours before.

hope it helps in some way.

I wish we could have heard his drum, but they wont let him take it, stupid saints plonkers. Think they dont want anyone making as much noise as them. Childish if you ask me. Cant see the problem. He has took it for years.
