Thanks much appreciated, as i was leaving the lift of the end section of the stand happened. Caught it on my phone.

Happy 50th for yesterday.
Enjoyed the video yesterday.
So it looks as though tbe large piece we were waiting with baited breath to see lifted finished up near the fledgling roof works.

Happy 50th birthday…can’t believe that they haven’t cambered the roofs of the hotel, what with the Manchester rain to contend with…puddles, puddles everywhere…

Look to see if you can get a shot of the mock-up. One shot from further away looked like they added the sails or whatever they are

I did.
They were definitely the same white MDF sails.
Hence why I didn't take and post a picture.
I'll have a look today.
If the MDF sails have changed I will take a picture and post it after the match.

The fin/sail is the same on the mockup.

Sorry, didn’t take a picture.

The original pictures I took will be buried in the thread somewhere.

I took a few pictures of the walkways connecting the hotel to the stand.

I’ll post them tomorrow.

Only marginally offside following a VAR review,but......

.....can you do some shots of SSL3/2 as an all City end under the acoustic roof.

And a quickie of ESL110 /111 where the away fans will be wet through with shit views & shite acoustics.

Send the invoice to Richard.

Chars.

Assuming they are atill there after the storm and not blown into the cfg grounds! Sails aside, in theory the horizontal panel should change, to show the perforations as introduced recently seen on the main build. Whether they bother with it or not is another thing. The condition still hasn't been formally discharged, but given they've been in breach of it for almoat a year now, they muat have aome level of comfort from the planners. Still no idea what taking them off to put them back on the last time was all about.

Todays fly around , skybar terracing has started, captured another lift with them using those temporary scaffold towers to put the first row in.

Another brilliant video Thank you. Really appreciate your efforts.

I took a few pictures yesterday concentrating on the pedestrian bridge linking the hotel to the North stand.

You love capturing a lift. Hope you get lucky and capture them lifting a mewp onto the second tower roof.

You can clearly see the brackets for the sails on the mullions now.
