Stadium Construction To Begin Soon

Last updated : 12 November 2007 By Stuart Gillespie
The news comes from a Saints fan who also happens to work for Barr, who will be responsible for building the new ground. He has posted on two Saints forums today - the Official Site and Black and White Army - saying that Barr have now been told they can start building work at Greenhill Road in January.

It's not before time. After Saints chairman Stewart Gilmour said a few months ago that work would begin shortly after the Glasgow Fair, nothing seems to have happened. Several bits and bobs of red tape have no doubt held things up, but it seems everything is now sorted and work is due to begin in a few months.

Sadly, this will not be our last season at Love Street - the move probably won't take place until halfway through next season. Better late than never!

Mirren Mad will bring you news of the official confirmation of the start date when it is released.
