Etihad Campus, Stadium and Collar Site Development Thread

Have you ever tried waiting, standing in the rain, to fight your way onto the platform to catch a tram into town, on a bitterly cold winters night ...? Maybe think of those who cannot walk that distance but still enjoy coming to watch their team.
No, I never use the tram. Too expensive. All public transport involves waiting, and therefore the cold. Sounds like the only thing that would help you is a personal taxi service.

At the San Siro there are six platforms at the stadium station, all with trains backed up ready to take fans away. Both Milan clubs average a lower attendance than we do.

The Metrolink service at the Etihad post-game is appalling!
 
The vast majority of the jobs in my opinion will go to agencies and companies that specialise in event management. A lot of people who work in the Etihad aren’t from the local area and are brought in by a company.

For a lot of locals, it’s more traffic and noise.

City make a commitment for a high percentage of jobs to go to local people.
 
Really don’t see the point of another stadium. We already have the Etihad, the cricket ground. MEN arena, old Trafford - that’s more then enough stadiums for concerts.

How does it benefit local residents either ?

Employment opportunities?

Those venues can only realistically be used in summer for concerts as well.

Milan is another world. The Etihad is 1,500m from the City centre with its mainline train stations, bus and coach stations.

We played SPurs at the weekend, I went in and out by foot and bus. In the roads were empty, out there was the usual seas of people, and this time angry people, but they moved quick enough, and they parted for the bus, and I was away.

Meanwhile, you were struggling were you? If you were, you'd have said already, but instead you're telling me about Milan.

And a lot of local workers are desperate for more work & living from hand to mouth on total shit wages, some likely to struggle like fuck thanks to Brexit, so another venue close to home will be a help.

Every event needs people to set it up.
