North Stand Construction Discussion

That’s part of my point really.

How can the biggest club in the second most populated region in the country only get 40,000? Villa should be getting some of the best attendances in the country. And if not Villa what are the other Midlands clubs doing?

How can Leeds, the only big football team in their city, only get 35,000? When you look at their population and the only other football clubs are Guisely and Farsley in their entire conurbation, they’re also the biggest club in their wider region… Leeds should be getting some of the best attendances in the country.

We’re doing something wrong in this country. Top attendances were better 60-100 years ago than they are now.

Birmingham is now more a cricket town and Leeds is/was rugby league

Thanks for this and all the previous posts, I am becoming a bit of a construction freak

A fair few restricted views for this season at each end of the white hoardings by the looks of it

These video’s are brilliant, it goes to show how the construction is built but, there’s always a but……
It’s weird how quick it’s coming along with hardly any builders on show in the video’s.
Where is everyone?
I expected builders/labourers to be climbing over each other and cranes working 12hrs per day. Nothing of the sort

It doesnt help not knowing nothing about building buildings.

I’m showing my age but i expected Fraggle Rock for the next 3yrs but what do i know ha ha

Keep up the good work and I look forward to the next video

It was after 8pm and not long before it was dark, most of the time I can only get there in the evenings when everyone has gone home for the day, hopefully on Friday I will get there in the day

Absolutely bounced it down prior to that. I'd just finished repairing my jet washer when the heavens opened. Some very wet tools !

Hadn’t noticed that on first viewing.

Hi thanks for the update, I always look forward to them. Just one point the primary use of the building on the right which they’ve just started is to house a museum not just offices.

Thanks. Your videos are fantastic.

Great video as always. Was making me smile watching thinking of some on here last couple of years moaning as there were a few cracks in the paint and plants were dying around City square ( compared to what is going on now ! )

It’s actually mainly offices if we’re talking overall space with the shop and museum taking up the lower couple of floors or so.

Guilty!

That wasn't moaning.

It was pointing out the deterioration of City Square over time, just like Joe Mercer Way, which will be resurfaced as part of the North stand redevelopment.

What that actually shows is that the fans care about the Etihad, how it looks, and it's up keep.

Lots of digging work currently going on immediately outside the South Stand today. Hope they get it finished before the weekend or it cause loads of problems. (Eddie told me last night in the pub).
