That would make it a 120,000 capacity , tell the frothing cunts our team is twice as good as theirs -and that’s a fact not fiction.
Shows you how fucking desperate they are to be noticed , a fucking JCB hasn’t even arrived yet and they’re wanking like a 12 year old with a freeman’s catalogue open at the women’s underwear section.
It was grattans for me.

in my long and varied career in Architecture, I have worked for Foster & Partners, and I can assure yu that the dark Lord has had fk all to do with this design. It would have been given to a team of young interns to visualise , with no semblance of practicality involved. It is a fantasy build.
I have previously remarked on here, that the scheme forms part of a +20 year masterplan for the area, which infrastructure wise would have to be halfway in, before any new stadium could be contemplated, thats 10 years hence, if you got the finances and approvals in last week.
Sir Jim won't see it, Ineos won't see it...hell, half the punters on this forum won't see it.

Im thinking it is a show reel for potential ...middle eastern developers. Thtas all.

I’ve got no architectural knowledge & even I had realised there’s no detail. It’s 1 up from a napkin scribble by a monorail salesman.

In 1990 I used to walk into a fancy lobby past a scale model of the 2 new sites built to extend the current sites. You could point at cinemas, gyms, tennis courts but of course none of it was built. In fact every site in the UK was sold off & in the 35 years since this pattern has continued. The last was well triple the turnover in 5 years, it didn’t. The only increase in revenue can be attributed to inflation & profits are down.

Ratcliffe is a con man, a liar & a cheat who has just bought himself 10 years of doing fuck all at the current ground, in fact & I’ve said it before I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Swamp knocked down in preparation with no concrete plans & they move to Wembley.
 
With the exception of Michael Owens beyond stoppage time winner in the 4-3 defeat and the League Cup semi final 3-1 defeat in 2010 I haven't been to O/T since the 1996 FA Cup game we were robbed of. The place brings out the worst in me which I just don't like and so I refuse to give them another penny. But back then throughtout the 80s and 90s I always noticed how they would roll out some old antiquated legend to honour them and play to the crowd and help generate the atmosphere a little more. I also took it as a poke at City but then I will freely admit to being a little over sensitive where they're concerned.

So today's announcement of the new Gold Trafford comes as no surprise on the back of some utterly appalling decisions and financial announcements these last few months culminating yesterday with Scruffy Jims interview with skys independent expert pundit Mr. football himself ohhhhh ahhhhh Gary Neville. The rags have always been masters of the propaganda machine, always having the ear of the press ready to announce something shiny and new to keep ahead of the rest. Similar to how Taylor Swift hits the charts with a new single the week after any of her female contemporaries. Keep the Bastards down!

This week, to divert attention from their crippling finances, they announce some cheap Al image of a stadium that ticks all the boxes, the magical figure of 100,000, with a blanket cast over the stadium to provide the biggest covered open space in the world for fans whilst also soaking up enough clean air and energy to keep the shire counties watching Nited on Sky/TNT for the next decade. Clean transport to and from the stadium but not too close to make it a traffic free zone, which in turn will become a green environment full of nature, trees, birds and whatever other pondlife pervades traffords wildest hedgerows. A processional walkway no less, down to the ground for the 1 Billion fans (according to the penniless one today) and of course they will all want to visit the new mecca of football all year round. I hope they've factored in a park and ride in one of Manchester less salubrious districts so as not to pollute the project. It will become as well known as the Eifel tower says Jimmy boy, and those three tridents will look magnificent lit up in various colours to show the world Manchester stands with them.

They're the biggest club, with the mostest fans and deserve the best of everything. Why have they got this obsession with being the biggest, a weird self appreciating fetish to constantly keep their never ending ego's overflowing. Maybe it's just me but i've never felt connected to anything that self declares it has the biggest, bestest, most deserved. I'm guessing it must be like male parts and cars but then i've always been happy with a mini metro as long as it gets me from A to B and if the ride along the way has its ups and downs then all the more fun.

Good luck to them I just hope and pray to the great football gods in the sky we don't offer the hand of friendship and allow them to ply their trade at the Etihad whilst the taxpayer funds the building of the 'Eifel Tower of Northern Dreams'!

Anyone notice the actual quality of the video they put together to showcase their new stadium looked a bit cheap and naff. Like some intern put it together, they can’t even afford good cgi these days.

PSR dodge , only a fucking child would make a stadium look like a circus for effect, with the tower from Düsseldorf city centre in the background.
It’s just missing an erupting volcano in the background , maybe a few brontosaurus’s just to get the kids really excited
